Renee #900481

Sunday was such a gloomy overcast day, perfect for a photo shoot. Renee was a last minute scheduled shoot and I wasn't really in the mood to drive all over the city looking for a location. I decided to see if Ayrsley would do. We found a few places around the fountain and chess set to play. Renee was a good sport about the whole experiment and Dannie stopped around to help if need. All in all, it was a good company and a shoot.

Amanda

Sometimes the best shoots are the ones not planned. Ananda (MUA mm#667936) always seems to know the best models. Amanda was no expection, she channeled Twiggy for the entire shoot and we had a blast.

Amanda and Lynsey

Sometimes shoots flow with an easy ebb and other times they are just painful to get done. Usually I can tell how the post production is going to go by the how the shoot actually went. The best I hope for is I am getting better so the shoots go well which will allow the post production to go quickly.

I am still amazed when I open a photo and the photo speaks to me. That I actually captured something with camera. I had so much fun with Lynsey, Amanda, and Ananda last weekend and it shows in the photos.

Lynsey B

I shot Lynsey B (mm#1305949)on Saturday in Elmwood Cemetery. Elmwood is a great location, great stones and the city in the background. The day was grey and very overcast with the threat of rain. Ananda (mm#667936) came to do Lynsey's makeup and I enjoy having him around. Ananda always brings friends who also model for me and the shoot wound up being so much fun. So far I have only gotten to Lynsey's photos, but will be posting Amanda's (Ananda's friend) soon.

Crown Memorial

I am always driving around looking for places to take photos and sometimes I find the oddest things. I also seem to have a radar for cemeteries, I can find a cemetery like some women find a shoe store. This pass weekend both kicked in. I was driving through an industrial park when I found a very odd cemetery, The Crown Memorial.

The following passage was taken from their website. "In the middle of the park is the Crown of Life, Crown Memorial Park's centerpiece feature, welcomes souls into enternity. This stunning 3-story statue marks our premiere section."





I found the statue to be a bit creepy in the very early morning light out in the middle of no where.
