Adventures of a Photo Chic...

Documenting my adventures as a fashion and art photographer.

Eternal Heartbreak

Model/Makeup: Mosh - www.themoshroom.com/
Hair: Laura Raczka - www.modelmayhem.com/1258125
Photographer: Deirdre Holmes - www.DeirdreHolmes.com
I can honestly say that I lived one of my dreams today when I get the opportunity to shoot with the incomparable Miss Mosh. She was even more amazing to work with than and of my fan-girl fantasies could imagine… So thank you Mosh! And thank you Laura for your amazing hair skillz!!

San Pedro Lights at Night

San Pedro Lights at Night

The Year of Magical Thinking: 

Style heavily influenced by Brooke Shaden [link] and Caravaggio.
Texture smoke overlay from aurostock [link]
Theme from Joan Didion’s book the year of magical thinking. An alternative title would be ‘the monster inside of me’.
This photo is very personal to me. A few people who know me might be able to guess what this is about. I don’t want to say what it means to me because I would like to hear other peoples thoughts on what it might mean from their perspective…  
I’m taking my photography in a new direction and this is sort of the beginning.  I’ll be doing a lot more exploration on themes like life and death, love and loss, and those types of good things.
I don’t know how people model for photos.  The whole process is frighting.
