I N S P I R E D

While I have been test shooting still life images, I have not been shooting the content to go along side the images. I saw these images by photographer Maisie Cousins and feel completely inspired by her work. While dewy skin in beauty images was something I proposed, Im excited about experimenting with different areas of skin on the body.

 I want to create close up shot of skin with oil and natural materials like Cousins has. I think the snail is absolutely amazing and while it may make some squirm I think it creates such a beautiful image.

While the nudity and "real beauty" style are something that I do not think are necessary for my blog I would like to explore the texture of skin and natural body hair. I feel this fits with my project, as I am to emit positivity.

*Test Shoot*

I did a quick test to see how the oil and petals would look on the camera and how I was able to shoot the oil with different lighting set ups, this was with a beauty dish.. I just used the knee as I was rushed in the studio but I feel confident I am on to something.
