Ok so I am not ALWAYS sweet and innocent :P Art- here's your bandana. :D And Crystal- Look! Clothes. The whole look just started weird and got weirder. The fishnets are really more of a "shirt" that I created out of an old pair and in outtakes that shows more but I like the look of this one more. The backdrop is a black sheet lit from just behind my lower right with one strobe with some pink plastic on the front of the strobe. In PP- taking Waves' suggestion I added another layer & radial blur and then erased around myself. What fun. Wave was also a big help with the set-up.
I love this pic... but, I would like a closer crop of this... seeing the blurb of color in the corner from the light behind your backdrop well... its distracting. You look so tough in the pic that it is cute and that pink spot makes you look more cute than tough. A closer crop would give a better effect (I know because you showed me one and it looked awesome!)
This photo does have a very 1980's tough girl look to it though. It reminded me of Madonna in "Boarderline". In fact, I googled up a photo from it that incidenally looks a bit like it LOL Which is funny because I know you weren't even trying to do that. Next time you try this shot... get some gelly bracelets and some big 80's hair!!
Incredible use of light. Again, as I say in almost all of your shots, your eyes are just captivating. Your ability to just get in front of the camera and look GREAT each day is wonderful. Not sure about the mix of the fishnet design on the arms and the flames on the head, but seeing as how the top of your head is in shadow, it doesn't really detract much. Keep it up girl!!
