Many Faces: Meg

Many Faces: Byron

Many Faces Project...

Having always loved the look of photobooth images, I want to create a grid of 'faces' of people I know.  It is always interesting how people react in front of the camera, and by shooting twelve images, the viewer can get a sense of personality of the person, though I do talk and suggest ideas to try.
I will be strictly shooting twelve images of each person allowing for no editing, this puts a stress as well to the model to perform to their best! And yes, I do intend to include myself in this series. Who knows how far it will go and how many people I will do...only time will tell. Will continue to post more as I complete them.

Osheaga Weekend

So, finally the weekend I was looking forward to for such a while came. I was both happy and sad to be back in Montreal. Happy because I missed it, sad because the realization that I don't live there anymore was something I wanted to avoid. 


Some images I snapped with my iphone during some of the shows:

Oh Land

Sia

Death From Above 1979 were playing on the left stage

Bright Eyes

The Flaming Lips

More test shots...

Lighting Test

I finally decided to buy a lighting kit to use at home, rather than always renting them. I took a couple of test shots (of myself) to see how they look.
Not too bad! I am excited for some upcoming shoots!
For these, I used two soft boxes for an even light.

SYMBIOSE: Art Show in the Netherlands

A couple of months ago, I sent in a concept I thought would fit the theme of this art show that were taking submissions, and they accepted my work. The theme of the show is symbiosis ( the interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association.)

Here are the two images I sent to them.

These images represent myself as two beings, coexisting in the same space. When you have only yourself to rely on for entertainment, or conversation, you truly feel as though you are completely confined within yourself.
