II-High Priestess

II-High Priestess

Sarah was nice enough to volunteer to pose for the Tarot deck when she was visiting last week. The second she volunteered, I knew exactly what card I wanted to use her for. I love the tattoo on her shoulder and she has just enough hair to obscure her face in mystery and make a perfect High Priestess. Originally I was thinking of adding some background elements like I did with some of the other cards, but as I was finishing up, I felt like that would have been doing too much. I remembered why I went for the cold black backgrounds in the first place. Not to distract from the model. Just let her create the mood alone.

Comments and criticism welcome and encouraged as always.

Laurie in the window 2

Like most of my recent models, I met Laurie on Model Mayhem. I actually saw her as a preppy staff card type for my Tarot Set, but she told me she really wanted to try to be one of the sword cards. The more I talked to her, the more I liked the idea of using her there. She has a very versatile look and that ended up being perfect for the idea of the 3 cards, a reflection of the one suit in another.

And because I love this pic and I thought it would be cool to use 3 pics from the same shoot for all three CWD assignments, I am also using it as cwd223: U2. The song: Window in the Skies

Oh, can’t you see what love has done
To every broken heart
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
For every heart that cries
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
Love left a window in the skies
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
And to love I rhapsodize

Day 199 of 365 days. There was actually a lot I wanted to get around to doing today. Working on some photo editting. Working on my paper for the conference. Playing some quality video games. Didn’t really get to any of that. Instead, I spent the day doing phone interviews for a couple different jobs.…

Gina Silhouette

Did a photo shoot with my nine month pregnant friend Gina the other day. I haven’t edited most of the photos yet (I’m still working on editing the pics from the shoot before it) but I wanted to use this one for Class with Dave.

Anyway, Gina wanted nice artsy pictures of herself while pregnant. And since the baby is due any day now, it seemed like we should get them done sooner rather than later.

The class with Dave assignment was to create a backlit silhouette. And Gina wanted one anyway, it all worked out perfectly.

Day 14 of 365 days. "This will be the high point of my day. It’s all downhill from here." – Lester Burnham, American Beauty So I actually took this shot this morning as kind of a backup shot in case I didn’t come up with something better by the end of the day. Then I…
