so sore.
I've decided to pray that someone will take pictures of fireworks, b/c I'm too tired and sore to take them. My right hand can't take any more shutter presses. What do you mean, you say? heh. I spent from 2:30-10:30 doing pictures. I slept the first hour to get some...creativity brewing while D worked on makeup. Jessica is the hair person on my creative team. You see, when I photographer her models at PM, the deal was that if anyone signed up for the photoshoot, that I would be more than happy to do free portfolio shots of them up until they got their cosmo license. But they had to be a "Creative", which is their senior level at the school. Jessica was the ONLY one to sign up for it. I mean SERIOUSLY, how could you turn that deal down?
So anyways. First shoot we did I think you saw a lotta pics of, it was where Amanda bloomed before my very eyes, as someone very plain, someone I didn't notice, and after D's makeup and some time in front of the camera, KABOOM! magic. People tell me all the time how gorgeous and photogenic she is, and she totally is, and it's so funny b/c everytime I see her, I REALLY have to look for her b/c I don't normally notice her. But then again, all the great ones are that way, eh? Cindy, Chandra, Petra, Letitia. All the ones I love. I think I might just make her the muse just b/c she's always available for the most part. My two muses, one I can't even get a hold of, the other one is always doing something. BUT! I might have the inside track being able to do a set for Suicide Girls. We'll see. I won't hold my breath or get my hopes up. But GOD WOULD I LOVE THAT.
You might have seen this already, but here's this awesome shot of Samantha from the shoot. Samantha is a girl I shot for PM a while back for Jess. She's 5'11. And frankly, looks just like Anna Nicole Smith. And she makes me nervous. But she's awesome. If you've seen Myspace, you already saw this, but it's cool how this shot happened. I had two girls hold her as she leaned over the hot tub in Jess's back yard. I straddled her kinda and shot with a hotshoe flash upped a full stop. Fuck the hotspots. I LOVE IT.
And D's makeup is bangin on all the girls. MAC Silverleaf + mixing medium on the outside of the eyes, Temptu Airbrush foundation to match her tan.
some shots from yesterday.
this is kee-kee. werd.
this is jessie. here's the thing. She NEVER wears makeup, has kinda a deep voice and just...DAMN SHE DUN WORKED THE CAMERA. I can't believe it. I'm not sayin her ass was The Swan, but damn. Girl looked GOOOOD.
Amanda was lookin BOSSY, werd up to Kelis. I told her to be kinda like Married to the Mob. She's just so sweet. But damn if I didn't try to make her look badass. Anyhow. I'd love to have her at Sunrise on the beach. that would be an awesome set of pictures.
another of Samantha:
oh well. that's it fo now.
