Narcissus Photo Shoot



These shots are from a photo shoot
that one of my instructors put together for us
just for fun and for the experience of working with models,
hair stylists, make-up artists, the whole shebang!


The original concept was the myth of Narcissus and Echo.
In the end the wardrobe and make-up deviated a little from that theme,
but it was a great experience to work on a big shoot like this.
The models were fantastic, thank you!

Andrea, in the polka dots, was hilarious.
She was so pumped to do this pose ,
and made me promise that she would get this photo
so that when she's a grandma
she can show her grandkids that she got to touch a hot model!

Thanks again Bruno,
this wasn't as fun as the skateboard shoot,
but I sure like these pics!
