Image of the Day- Corpse Bride!

When I go to these themed shoots- my favorites are always the ones where the models have designed their own costumes. Yesterday I got to see the final product of the Pyscho Bettie Classic’s “Corpse Bride” costume. I gave her my wedding dress from 1999 and she transformed it to a very beautiful and unique work of art. With the crazy talented MUA Steffeny Bonilla and the modeling skills of Alaina Rose Lee- this image came to life.

Art & Soul Photography Project just gets better & better on the themes, locations and the talent of putting the right people together to be a success!

Thank you Patricia Brakeman for the great concept and Belle La Valentine for the beautiful location!

Image of the Day – Solitude

One thing I truly love about digital work is the post processing you can do to mess with the image, changing it to resemble an image from long ago- this image was processed through Topaz Adjust for the HDR effect and then moved into Analog FX to bring more of a Vintage look to the color, etc. This Bride worked on designing the costumes for many months before this shoot actually took place. This dedication as well as the fact that both models always research and “live” the characters they portray show the talent they both have. Working with both for the past year has been an extreme pleasure of mine and I feel truly blessed.

Image of the Day- Zombie Fun

We had a fun shoot a couple of weekend’s ago to start the promotion of Art and Soul Photography Project, a new meet up group that Caitlin Litzinger started and the Bracketeers are involved in with her. This image is of Caitlin as a cute little pinup zombie getting ready for a date. Or at least that was my interpretation!

Image of the Day- Jungle Boogie!

Today’s image of the day is of my cutie pie- Alaina Rose Lee along with her swords she uses in her burlesque act. Alaina is a member of The Dirty Little Secrets Burlesque troupe and you can find out info on their shows by clicking to their Facebook site. Check them out, you will not be disappointed.

Post processing on this shot was through Topaz Adjust and then Topaz ReStyle- two great little filters to use.

Enjoy your weekend- we have a Zombie shoot today, 50th Anniversary celebration for South Bay Chapter of NAIW and then tomorrow, lots of fun at Wonderland shooting a Vintage Burlesque theme.

Be safe!
