[ VIVID ]

It's been a while since I have blogged. Been quite busy with shoots. I have been debating doing another Project 365 - most likely starting in August of this year! But we shall see about that one.

I have been having an awesome time using Instagram! An app for my iPad. A blog will follow within the next week about this amazing FREE app for all those who have an iphone, ipad touch or ipad.

Last weekend I did my 2nd "concept" themed shoot for 2011. One more to come!

Below find a few pictures from, [ VIVID ]

Wild Thing with Roxi Richards


"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes,
I love not man the less, but Nature more..."
 
Winner of Project One, Roxi Richards' much anticipated shoot happened yesterday.
A team consisiting of; make-up artist, Jessica Frew ; stylist, Brett Robson ; and myself ; met with Roxi at 08:00. Braving the cold we made the trek of about 30+ minutes carrying all our gear to our starting point.
We had decided to really go wild for our; "Wild Thing" shoot concept.
Sunlight was evident even though the early morning conditions still resulted in an icy chill in the air.
 
 
 
On reaching our desired point of commencement we got going. Make-Up begun and Outfits and Accessories were paired and the shooting started.
 
What followed shows evidence that when a team of people get together with a common purpose - great results follow. I believe this goes for all things in life. Big or small, teamwork and working with nature, not against it - yields positive results.
 
Some pictures from the, "Wild Thing" shoot can be found on my facebook page. Comments are most welcome. Keep checking as within the next few days, more pictures will go up.
 
Once again I would like to thank all involved in the shoot!

Loss = Life

"Loss is a part of life.

You can't really care for something or someone until you realize that one day, they may be gone.

And when they do go, we feel as if everything goes with them and we feel like we'll never really care about anything again.

But we do.

And we discover that that loss was a gift, that helps us appreciate all of the things we still have."
