52 Week Photo Challenge - Week Thirty-Three!
My next challenge is to use layers in Photoshop. I am about to embark on a few photoshop challenges so this is the first of many. I love photoshop becuase there are so many creative things you can do. Using layers is a great way to blend images together! I love the way these turned out.
Week Thirty-Three - Blending Layers!
For this challenge I thought it was appropriate to bring back some good old memories and use some of my very first photos I ever took in the studio. I took my dear friend playing on her accordian and layered music notes on top of that to compliment the theme. I also took photos of my friend Michelle reading a book and layered words and pages of books on top of that to continue that theme as well. I hope you like them!

52 Week Photo Challenge - Week Thirty-Two!
My dear friend Ayla Nero and I found a free moment to collaborate in a photo shoot in Colorado at the Sonic Bloom Festival. She looks amazing next to those magestic Rocky Mountains. Ayla is wearing a Warrior Within Onesie that was designed for her called the Wild Light Onesie.
Week Thirty-Two - Capture Movement!
For this challenge we were working with the elements. It was windy that day but each time we went out to take photos the wind seemed to go away. Ayla used my scarf to dance with the wind. She also played with the earth and picked up sand to spread in the air. The sand was difficult to capture and seemed to cover her face most of the time but it is cool to see it in action.

52 Week Photo Challenge - Week Thirty-One!
For this challenge I was in collaboration with a friend to put her multiple personalities in one photograph interacting with each other. This is what we came up with!
Week Thirty-One - Me Myself and I!
So the most challenging part of this image as you can imagine is getting the two to match up. We first posed the tux costume and then carefully posed the flapper costume where we thought it would match. In the editing room I had to make a lot of creative choices but I think it turned out pretty good. More challenging then I thought it was going to be for sure!

52 Week Photo Challenge - Week Thirty!
I really love the way the light creates flares in the lens. It is a great tool you can use outside and inside the studio.
Week Thirty - Studio Flares!
For this shoot Meka and I wanted to create an image with a lot of fur and a beautiful woman wrapped in it. The make-up was subtle and classic and the fur was really fun. This was a simple challenge but also a good one to master. It can really add something incredible to a photo! Very g;am!

52 Week Photo Challenge - Week Twenty-Nine!
For this shoot Meka wanted to decorate her modle with diamonds all over her. The application of each individual diamond on her eyes and mouth took a couple hours.
Week Twenty-Nine - Wind Blown Hair!
I was excited to use this gorgeous model with amazing long hair to add a little wind and see if I could get it moving. It got really cold and there was even a moment when a tear rolled down her check but she stucj it out the whole time. There was not as much wind as I was hoping for. I might need a more powerful fan or just figure out how to place it better. An assistant is crucial at times ike these.
