Fire. She’s on fire.

But actually she wasn’t. No models were harmed during the making of these pictures.

Even the frame held up super well despite being lit up multiple times. This is the second time I’ve used it too.

I MUST give a big THANK YOU to Heather Myers for the idea and sharing her camera settings from when she and I did a similar shoot for a project I’m working on.

The frames and fire were all me and I’m pleased to say no one got hurt and nothing got burned down : P

Anywhere, here is what Caitlyn, Becky (makeup), and I did the other day.

And then a couple close-ups of Becky’s handiwork.

Actually in all fairness I have no idea if the magazine is rubbish or not, but they chose the ever-popular “Into Dreamtime” image for their 9th issue, so someone has taste : P

_MG_7263-EditThis photo was accepted to the online gallery for Photoplace Gallery’s “Composed” show, which technically starts May 28th, but you can see all the accepted images here. 

This type of photo is probably still my favorite to make despite the success of the underwater photos and the fun of the fine art stuff.

Berenice and I were going to photograph some yoga poses on a mini-hike, but I hurt my ankle playing pickle ball (look it up, it’s all the rage). So we settled for some studio shots, which are none-the-less impressive thanks to her control over her body. Hopefully once my ankle heals we can hit the trail and make some outdoor images as well. In the meantime these should tide us over.

There is a monthly photography contest called Shoot the Frame. Each month they choose a winner in the face, land, and wild categories.

For March I was a finalist for face and finalist for land (need to find me some wild I guess).

The face belongs to traveling model Perrin Marie. You can see her work on Instagram. 

The land I previously posted last month with my images from my trip to Page, AZ.

I was privileged enough to be permitted to photograph the dress rehearsal for the Scorpius Dance Theatre Wednesday night. They are performing their current show David + Lisa at the Herberger Theatre in downtown Phoenix in the outdoor space (which I really liked!) masked and socially distanced of course.

I have been given approval to share the first few I found time to edit. Eventually I’ll make a page with whatever the full collection ends up being, but for now you can see batch # 1 here.

And for Heaven’s sake, go see them Friday or Saturday night! Support art!! Go!!!
