Behind the Scenes: Fashion Project

Here are some behind the scenes together with some of my favorite shots from that bridal fashion project I did at The Ebell Theater.  It is very exciting to work on a concept and see it come to life.  I love working with light and playing with various elements to create a mood for my photographs.  I can't really draw (hence, the camera :D) but I try to sketch out ideas the best way I can.  The Ebell has been a location for a handful of magazine shoots we've done and I knew it'd be the perfect place for this.  A million thanks goes out to Melissa Allen for graciously letting us play there.

SO thankful for my awesome team who not only did a fabulous job but made the day a lot of FUN ... & special thanks to my dear friend Minouche for the behind-the-scenes shots!

Shooting with a Mamiya RZ67 (which also doubles as freehand weights!), still my most favorite format!

Theresa Huang working her magic...

NO, we weren't rehearsing for a dance number! ... showing Hen the pose we were going for

ahhh the ring light...

i believe i can fly...

 i love backlighting.  we utilized the theater's lights too to achieve these...

at the dressing room, really brought us to the 1920s

Again, cheers to my fantastic team -

Marianne...it was so amazing to witness how hard you work. I saw first hand how you used your body, mind and soul to capture these images. Thanks for sharing this.

Love it, love it, love it! My goodness Marianne, you really captured the essence of old Hollywood theater with these images. Elegant, timeless, and gorgeous. Congratulations.

Great seeing you at WPPI!
