I did the Dark Shower images a number of times over the last 2 years. Went from no light on the background to a white one to see the water to very saturated colors. I like the color a lot.
This on is special because the color is there, but the front light makes every rivlet of water on Niece’s body show up.
As an honorable mention for the best of here’s one where the flash didn’t go off and we got a cool backlit images with a lens flare worthy of Star Trek.
It isn’t really milk, it is some high protein milk substitute I bought a HUGH bucket of at Costco. I thought I’d need a lot of it, but ended up only using about 4 cups for the whole kiddie pool.
Once again the model is Alicia.
We started off trying to be worksafe, but most of the images are nude.
I don’t remember exactly where the idea for this shoot came from. Like most awesome ideas I’m sure there was more than one source and they were brought together.
I first heard of Alicia because she applied to be a model for our studio at one of our casting calls. Everyone said she was my kind of model, because of all the body art.
Then I decided it would work even better if she were in a white liquid like milk.
Here’s the first image from the shoot.
I meant to do that….OK, that’s a lie. A couple of times the backlight didn’t fire. And the image became completely different.
The lighting set up was one large soft box on a boom directly in front and above the model. A gridded light behind and to camera right hitting her and the water. Without it you don’t see the water falling, only running down the front of her body.

I like this image a lot for some reason. I wish her face was a little better lit, but I like the expression, the look and pose.
And the way the water runs down her body.

This image could only have existed for a second. We’d been playing around shooting the water without getting her head/hair wet. Then I told her to go ahead and step into it and I would snap the picture.
I think it is pretty cool.

Zoom out a little and show more of her. I like the placement of her hands on her head. It gives some feeling to the image.

Few people have a headshot that involves water. I’ll give you details on how it was shot as I post more, but it looks cool

Andi Cain was another out of town model and she made a cool goth doll.
In case you didn’t know, calendars don’t come in an even 24 pages. So you have to add like 4 pages. So we decided to do another month because 13 is so goth.
Once again Heather set out with her makeup brushes and just painted this design on.
Ivory was a quite girl and very, very thin. We shot this image in a friends house, pulling my family Christmas tree out in July.
