You people have to know me well enough by now to know that there was no way I would let this series go by without taking at least a few of the shots to the limit. I have a syndrome, what can I say.
Most of this shoot was shot with the softer ‘glamour’ look in mind. However, I did toss in a few ‘edgy’ compositions. Take today’s shot for instance. I started by having Sam stand in the corner of this disintegrating ammunition hold. Then, after laying down on the dust and grime covered floor, I had her lean over the camera and give me as much attitude as she could muster.
Though I am sure this set up looked quite peculiar from the outside, it definitely lead to some pretty sick shots.
I went to town on the processing to bring out that ultra-grunge feel. I wanted to accentuate the juxtaposition between her soft curves and the hard edges of the cracked concrete.
It is always fun to process a series of images differently. It’s amazing how different two shots can be, despite being taken only minutes apart at the same location with the same model. Oh photography, what a furtive mistress you can be!
