Ghost Girl

I usually avoid making more than one blog post a day, but I figured this couldn't wait any longer, what with being further delayed thanks to the LJ meltdown. Anyway, if you remember this post that I made during the start of February this year, I mentioned a shoot that I couldn't reveal at the time it was posted. Fast forward six months later and now I can finally talk about this shoot!



The reason why I couldn't release the photos just yet was because I submitted them to an online publication called Unicorn/Dream Magazine. Since the ish that featured my contributions wasn't out, I couldn't really go ahead and blog about it just yet. It wasn't really hard to hold back from posting since I ended up forgetting about this shoot altogether, but it was definitely tough in the beginning, considering how much I adored this shoot. Click here to see the rest of the ish featuring lots of pretty things. I had never really contributed to a publication (online or otherwise) before this, so it was a big deal for me.

This was shot back in January, which, if you remember, was the month when my inspiration high went berserk. Other than being my first contribution to a publication, what makes this shoot special is the fact that it was my first time initiating a shoot with someone outside my circle of friends.



This is Bea de Jesus, a friend of my cousin's who looks younger than her age and is the prettiest when she smiles. I had been wanting to shoot with her for the longest time but, as usual, I never got to it until forever. I'd like to think I started the year right with this shoot, since it has become one of my favorites. Save for the watermark and resizing for le blog, the shots are pretty much untouched with regards to post-processing. If anything, I only tinkered around with maybe less than five shots, albeit minimally, since I really liked the shots as they already were.

I've jabbered on enough. On to the photos!

















































And so ends the 6-month old series that is Ghost Girl. Haha! Thank you once again to Bea (and Ate Gen!) for the opportunity. It was such a pleasure shooting you, and I hope it won't be the last! I'd like to think I started the year right with this shoot as it has become one of my favorites. It was such a joy producing it, so I hope you all like it!
