Pushing

Today was one of those lucky days where everything just went right.  I was supposed to be shooting some promo images for a local band, but as is often the case when multiple schedules are involved, I didn’t.  :\  Waste not the day!  I already had Chelsea lined up to assist on the band shoot, partly because she rocks and partly because we have plans for a killer concept shoot in this same location (as soon as I can get the logistics worked out).  So, when the band postponed I redirected my efforts to take advantage of something I rarely do – test shoot for something down the road.

This entire shoot was nothing more than a huge test covering the following:  What could we do with makeup on something a bit more extreme; shot options in THIS location for future shoots; lighting work for myself (ring lights can be a bitch to use) and to understand logistically what it takes to do something with a little more production value.

There’s A LOT of info zipping around the synapses right now.  I look at every image I take as a chance to learn something…and obviously this shoot provided TONS of thought provoking material to work with.

Kudos to the team:  Kat – excellent job on makeup and wardrobe; Chelsea – you rocked the looks and didn’t blink an eye while freezing your ass off for hours (that’s the REAL deal right there); and Connie – always awesome to have a chance to work side-by-side with you.  It’s rare on a shoot, so it was definitely a treat.  You make so much happen at the right times it’s truly mind-blowing.

Thanks for lookin…hope you enjoy.
