Massive update

What I've been up to lately:

Here's a little still life from the kitchen.... profusely sugary and lit using a hand-held flashlight during a 30 second exposure.


And the final version of the "Wild Girl."


And a low-key portrait.


And an illustration-type image for color class.

Ta-da!

Wild Woman in progress...

I only just shot this a couple of hours ago, and have more editing to do, but I'm pretty thrilled to work on this one... Thanks to Rachael for modeling and Lacey for assisting and doing the hair. New versions will be up later :)

First two attempts in the studio.

Here's two images I've done in the portrait class so far. There are glitches to both of them, but I'm looking forward to correcting more and more each time.

This is an image of my old roommate. It was supposed to be inspired by the style of Edward Steichen. I'm mainly disappointed that I allowed so much negative space between her body and the chair, but I'm happy with the light quality on her face.This was a high-key beauty assignment. I'm very happy with both the model and the outcome, but I need to be a little more careful about over-exposing the background (it eats away at the detail in her hair).
