Test Shoot

So I was able to get with my model to do a test shoot, just to try out some ideas and to get her use to the photo shoot and practice getting into the style of the shoot. Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot. Also the dress has change from the last post, it still needs to be shortened and I'm having a layer of black tulle added on top of the dress.

Where the project is at...

So after talking with Jere DeWaters about my project, we both came to the conclusion that with all the snow we've gotten so far and how it doesn't seem to want to end, it'd be in my best interest to move the photo shoot inside. As sad as I am to let go of the woods idea it's for the best and I'm pretty excited to see if my new location will lend itself just as well to my fairytale.

My new location is a high school and/or grade school (depending on if the principals have any issues or not) I'm taking the idea to a more modern one of the girl being trapped in the school (rather than the woods) and developing the fairytale drama/adventure in a school setting. These are a few photos of the high school I'll most likely be working in.
 




This is the current dress...I'm not completely sold on it. I'm still out looking but since this is Maine and not prom season I'm having a hard time finding what I want. If I can't find it I'll go with this.



 And this is my model, Jessica. Current high schooler a.k.a. perfect for playing one

Sadly, our schedules have not lined up right to have had our first shoot yet, but I'm pretty sure (weather permitting) it will happen this coming weekend.

"It's about..."


It's about finding one's ADVENTURE.
