Hollywood Starlet

My friend Christina wanted some shot of her dolled up as a 1950s Hollywood starlet. The lighting was easy, getting her to not laugh in every frame was tough.

I just got my copy of Fluid, a French ski photomagazine. In it they did a short on skier Elyse Saugstad and used this photo. I'm internationally published now. Got my credit and everything. If you happen to find this in the states, my photo is in Volume 18 on page 128. My copy seems to have a slight printing problem though. The skin tone is extra grainy and it looks like another photo bled onto this one. Hope it's just my copy but if not, at least I still got published.

A weekend of shooting

My sister asked if I could take some headshots of her friend while she was in town, which of course meant I needed to take pictures of my sister as well. Since I need all the practice I can get, and had two willing subjects, I was game.





And since I had the photography bug, yesterday evening I hung out at West Cliff Drive and shot pretty much whatever I saw.
