My series with the model is done
« on: July 01, 2009, 01:37:05 PM »
Yay!  It's been interesting and fun and has helped my photography grow in new ways.  Here's the final edit (in my mind, it has a narrative and there's a reason behind the sequencing, but that might only be in my mind  :) )

Thanks for looking.

They are very nice, good series imo. Have you spent lot time/many session? and what's the narrative.. if it is something you can disclose?

Thanks.  The pics were done in four sessions over 4 weeks, though the series pulls from only three sessions.

The model and I had a discussion about what the series is about at the last session and it helped.  To me, the last picture is what the series is about -- what's emerged as we shot the pics is this tension between her as a woman and her as a child.  She can look 14 one moment, then 30 the next -- or in the same picture.  I want the pics to develop this tension as it shifts back and forth from the more overtly sexual hard contrast pics to the softer pics (of romantic notions, dreams...?)
 
Sublimation is a wonderful thing!


EDIT NOTE:  I keep on editing this thing.  I think I finally have it down to the final 9 pics!  I will now put down the mouse and slowly back away from the computer...
