A Steampunk Circus Story

A new photo series I started working on, with a bunch of talented people to help, is a steampunk circus story. Its a narrative about this steampunk themed circus that is turned upside down by a manhunt for their fugitive. Tricks and twists ensue as the police duo try to claim their rightful prisoner. Here is an image of one of the characters:

The Twisted Clown

Model: Lee Theiss, MUA: Connie McClleland.

 

More to come as this story (har har) develops.


Preparing for a Fairy Photo Shoot

I didn’t realize how much work goes into preparation for fairy photo shoot. Moreso, how much stuff you can keep adding to one’s costume and set list before you decide, enough is enough! This past Sunday, the models and the makeup artists came over my place and tested designs and costumes. It was pretty successful! Here are some photos from that test run that I snapped in my house.

In addition to the girls providing their own costumes (or parts of it), other people helped with making wings, arm cuffs, styling wigs and other lighting accessories. Tonight, I hope to make my own Diffuser for the sunlight (that I can use in other outdoor shoots too).

We’ll be having the full fairy photo shoot this Saturday in the scorching heat (makeup and costumes will be put on in the nice A/C though) so here is to hoping for a successful shoot!
