Working Out = Hot
I'm off to Perth tomorrow! I figured it would be a good chance to get some sun and wear a pretty dress but apparently its cold over there and I don't have enough cash to buy the pretty dress i was after. So I'm having a sook.
Today I edited a shoot called "Workout Girls" (are you noticing a pattern?) While its not my absolute favorite concept for a shoot, the lighting was nice and we got some good shots, one of which (the model is Magdeline) is below.
When I first decided to start this blog I knew I wanted to post this picture, but I totally forgot about it until I saw it today. I just really like the light, it is one of the first things I notice when go overseas. The first time I went to LA I was quite surprised at the quality of the light. I had never considered that light may change from country to country. In LA the light looks exactly like it does in the movies (ha!) Its soft, hazy and pollution affected, but lovely and whimsical and makes just about every picture you take look like you took it in the 70's on your way to a key party where you may get murdered by the Manson family. This picture however was taken at about 6 in the morning from a hotel room in Las Vegas.
The blog is looking sweet! Hey is the shot of melita been manipulated at all? An Idea: Bringing down the over brightness in the sun could really help place focus on melita's body.
