Photo Shoot

         For the past 4 months I have been taking a little hiatus from doing photo shoots with my models. This was to give me some time to work on the other types of artwork, coffee book designs, gallery work, ect. It has been very BUSY but, a great time of productivity. 

         I have put together 3 of the coffee books, but want to possibly add a few new shots to it. I also have been using a bunch of the images from the last series of shoots I shot - to create the different types of Printmaking artwork that I have created over these last few months. So I haven't been setting up or shooting anything for a while, but have been considering setting a few new shots up to continue the work I have already started. 

        The other day one of my models that I have repeatedly worked with called me and wanted to do a little shoot. We have both been on a hiatus and needed something to break the ice, and start shooting again. I'm still pretty busy and don't really have the time to be setting up shoots and EDITING the shots!!!  -but we went out and shot / had a GREAT LUNCH! =))))  Here's one of the shots.

Dumpster Diving and Up Cycling

For sometime now, I have been collecting some "junk" from stuff that people have thrown out - Furniture, drawers, whatever can fit in my car! hahaha... The other day I drove a few blocks down side streets with  a large piece sticking out my OPEN back door... =) It just wouldn't fit, but I wanted it! HAHAHA... Some of what I have found are for things that I am working on and other things are for people to use at the LA Municipal Art Gallery, in the "Actions, Conversations - Intersections Exhibition. 

I was really excited last night - I have found a tall lamp stand that has a glass top and my mom has a lamp stand that the glass broke. So it is DIFFERENT then the old glass but I was able to fit it on! The rest of the lamp I will see about using later to make a light box artwork piece I have thought about.... But that will be another day! The base and pole of the stand would make a great stand for some other .... maybe sculpture piece?! In the image above you can see the stand that I took the glass off of and in the image below you can see it on the top of my moms light stand! 

More Shoots

Been kinda busy shooting some different types of shoots... trying things out. I think that just from the act of trying out different things you really learn a lot! Learn about what works and doesn't work for you - what you like, dislike, and just get a feel for something different. Each kind of modeling and photography really needs and asks for something different. So like for a time period piece might have a totally different look, feel, mood, ect - then a fashion shoot. I find these differences kinda interesting because it really is more then just going out and just  "shooting." Sometimes it is harder to get a shot with your camera - that you see in your MIND, and think will be really easy to get! =) Well, the models all were great to work with and loved the shots that we got! =)
