Rachel IS Malificent
Rachel is one of my favourite models, I really enjoy working with her. She is just a joy to work with, and incredibly photogenic. We usually shot fashion/lifestyle so I was a little surprised when I got an invitation to join a "Malificent" themed shoot with her. Obviously though, I jumped at the chance.
Original shot
If I'm honest the location wasn't the best - not really suited to the theme - and I wasn't *that * happy with most of the shots. A couple I did like though.
An alternative edit
I often get carried away in photoshop, creating images and trying out different tools and ways of changing (and hopefully) improving the images. Mostly these 'shopped images don't see the light of day; they just sit on my hard drives taking up space.
Her precious?
I managed to get a few images that I felt are reasonably ok. And they seem to be doing well on other platforms I use.

This one is another image I quite like, although I think the smoke helped. I was on a group shoot with people I didn't know and, to be honest, it was a bit of a free for all. Everyone jumping in, getting in the way. It got to the point where I just held back and clicked off some shots when I got the chance.

I don't like group shoots. Apart from the fact that it seems to be, for some, a race to get images up, I find it really limits creativity and individuality. You set up a shot and everyone jumps in, or people hog the model. Its not so bad, when you work with friends who have the same mindset. Sometimes, that can help push creativity as, when you're working with like minded people, you tend to inspire each other. Unfortunately, this shoot wasn't one of those shoots (although I did enjoy it). But I will leave this post here now as I've got to prepare for a group shoot today. With friends.
About me:
I can mostly be found shooting models, aviation, motorsports and, when I can, wildlife. But I enjoy most aspects of photography. You can find more of my work on the links below.
