One morning I awoke to a heavy mist over the shores of Homestead Lake and shot countless images there. Much later we bought Melani into the studio, dressed her like some fictional Druid Princess and shot an image to drop into this composite.

Two more images from Sarah's shoot with HDPE beads (usually used in blow molding processes). We attached the beads to Sarah's skin using Mastix - an adhesive used for attaching theatrical make-up effects.

After completing a shoot for a client that manufactured plastic pellets for injection molding and blow molding we had these HDPE pellets left over. Later, with a little adhesive, we used tem to add bling to a models body.

When I shot this at the Castle at St Andrews in Scotland I knew that I wanted to edit it like this, Now I need the right model, a redhead with ivory skin and tumbling hair, dressed in a vintage gown with a windblown bodice, to shoot in studio, and place her on the balcony like a defiant heroine.

More images from 'The Chair' series. The concept of the series is to use chairs as sculptural shapes rather than utilitarian items. I worked with different models and different chairs under the same lighting set up and allowed models to interact with the chairs creating different shapes.
