Studio Portraits with Rhiannon

 Introducing Rhiannon Wolfe. I have had very few opportunities in the past year to work with new people due to the Covid-19 restrictions but with patience and several rescheduled sessions I was able to arrange to work with the amazing Rhiannon. We shot together over the course of several hours and created a wide variety of content that we are sharing with you in each of our portfolios. The images below are a short introduction to her session and I hope to be sharing more soon.

More Studio Portraits with Jay

I had the good fortune to work with Jay for another amazing photo shoot. We shot together for nearly two hours and came up with some stunning images. I have been exploring the art of shibari rope bindings and Jay has been wonderful in helping me to apply those techniques in our sessions. Our most recent session included a wide range of genres including portraits, boudoir, glamour, bindings and bondage. For more of those sessions you can find them on my other page: Eden's Edge Studio

More Studio Portraits with Ophelia

 

I had the good fortune to work with Ophelia again recently and created a wide variety of looks for her beginning with this cute outfit of daisy dukes and a gray tanktop. I used a three-light setup with two gridded softboxes on either side of the camera and the third light was a small gridded spotlight high to the right used as a hairlight. I have included my favorite shots of this first look below:

Jay and I have worked together twice so far and we have plans for many more sessions. She has helped me explore new directions in my fine art projects. If you are interested in seeing more of Jay's sessions with me, you can find them on my other photography page, Eden's Edge Studio.

Here is an introduction to a new model, Dame d'Voltaire, who I had the pleasure of working with on a series of portfolio images. We collaborated in the studio, using a variety of wardrobe, props, poses, and lighting setups.

Here is an introduction to Rachelred. We met through Model Mayhem and have worked together to build content for both our portfolios. She is a former fitness model with years of experience which made our sessions flow very smoothly and produced many beautiful images.

Outdoor Family Portraits

I love helping my friends capture their families in photos. I have been asked by friends, both old and new, to take their portraits and its always an honor to help them. For this session, Kerri wanted photos with her son outdoors showing off the fall colors. We decided on this park by the river and walked the nature trails stopping in various locations to take some amazing photos.

Hand-Made Halloween :: Thanos

Thanos costume build for my 12 year old son. I found a template for the Infinity Gauntlet and for the helmet but was not able to find a suitable template for the armour or for the double-bladed weapon, so I created those by looking at comic-book references and screenshots. I started with the gauntlet and then proceeded to build from the head down the body. The blade was the second piece I built after the gauntlet, but was the last piece to be finished. I couldn't find a suitable mask for the costume, so I re-purposed a cheap, plastic Hulk mask I had in my Halloween box and built up the chin and other features to match reference images I had for Thanos. I documented the build process and finished with a studio session to show off all the different aspects of the costume.

Hand-Made Halloween :: Iron Man

I created this costume by hand. The only store-bought parts of this costume were the electronic components. The arc reactor in the chest and the right hand glove with the repulsor light were integrated into the design. Every other part of the costume was cut, shaped, glued, painted, and assembled by hand. I found templates for the basic design online but it didn't fit properly so I had to make adjustments to different parts for my son's body size. I documented the build process as it progressed over three months.
