I’m not normally one for pink, but when you cut it with black…I like it. That’s how I like pastels handled in general. Anyway, here’s another of Heather, bringing a little badass to the pretty pink room…
Belted Nude
This must be the week of abysmal lighting conditions, so here’s another! Sometimes those harsh lamp shots can work out, with a LOT of futzing with contrast levels. Why all the bad lighting? Well, sometimes the opportunity to shoot strikes when I don’t have my good lights nearby. Not going to let that stop me 🙂
Walls need sprucing? I do have an online shop for prints! Check it out here: Prints by Liz
10 Years…
May 2005 was my turning point for photography…it went from being a fun creative outlet to, wow, I want to do this for the rest of my life. I’m marking this as my 10th anniversary for photography even though I technically started earlier. These two shoots were instrumental in that turning point.
Happy Tuesday!
Corsets!
I loves me some corsets. I don’t loves me wearing them for too long…I do love shooting them though. Makes for beautiful lines, and not to mention, posture. I’ve been fascinated with them since I was a kid. I remember seeing Meet Me in St. Louis on Broadway, and getting to go to the dressing room of one of the actresses. She was absolutely wonderful to me…I remember the dress she had to wear on stage…that thing weighed a ton! The corset she wore underneath was authentic to the time period of the play. Later in life after trying my first, I was thoroughly impressed that she could sing in that thing! Anyway, corsets do tend to pop up in my shoots pretty often, and I notice the models attitude shift into a slightly more badass mode ;). Don’t worry, never had a model pass out on me.
Tea Party in the Attic
Ok…so, my mother-in-law gave me a tea set which included small pink cups with heart shaped saucers. What happens when you give me a pink tea set with heart shaped saucers? Uh…this:
I couldn’t help it. I had these ladies over to shoot when I first moved to CT (lived there about 5 years), add the hideous couch in the background with a game of Candyland, and the rest is history…I glad they shared my twisted sense of humor.
….yeah
