Old Timey Fan Card

During our last session with Pamela and Candace we decided to shoot some out takes while Pam’s hair was getting done. The result is a nice aged autograph image. The background is composed from various elements I shot during my travels through  northern Ontario. The autograph is not Pam’s real signature. Due to my horrible calligraphy skills (yet the stylus feels like a natural extension of my hand) I enlisted my wife for her first encounter with a Wacom tablet which resulted in a rather pleasant looking signature.

Pam has been one of the easiest models to shoot with. Even though she was a little under the weather (can’t tell from the shots) she performed wonderfully. She seems to effortlessly flow between poses. Once we established the concept I didn’t need to guide her at all. She knows what looks good on camera.

This was an extra shot I took while shooting some catalog images for Beata Dirycz, an LA Based fashion designer. I love the symmetry of the shot, of course I did have to help out a bit in post to achieve this exact look. The neckline reminds me of the famous Nefertiti image. So now forever I associate the image with it.
