| aquatic apparition |
So yesterday, I got in the studio and gave my friend Elche` a buzz. I was not really planning to do much, just a close up picture of her makeup for a beauty shot. I got started by shooting some randoms, just to get her comfortable and to secretly setup my lighting ratios correctly. I don't want to look like a complete rookie in front of her. When I got the shots I wanted... it was time to say our goodbyes, but my creative juices started flowing again so I decided a second round of shooting was in order! I tried as many poses as possible with slight changes to my lighting. 380 pics and 4 hours later, and the shoot was over. I rushed home and imported the pics onto my hard drive and probed the folder looking for something interesting to spend the next 4 hours working on. When I saw the base image that formed the 'Aquatic Apparition' I knew then and there that this was going to be it. I guess I was inspired by some of my wedding pictures that I shot some time back with brides immersed in water.
Being surrounded by an element that has no colour or taste, taking that and bringing life and mystery within it, gave me a strong platform to work on. I wanted to capture an 'AWAKENING' of beauty within a tasteless and colorless environment and take it further by introducing cold tones to contrast the mood a bit. I was really amazed with my outcome and I came to realize that sometimes 'Planning' a shoot isn't the best idea. By planning your shoot in detail, you immediately limit yourself to what you are going to do on the day of the shoot. Rather think of an idea > execute that idea > work from that idea and sprout new creativity that is totally unrelated to your initial idea. Be inspired by your creativity. It's amazing.
