Lately my better half and I have been collaborating on a few photo projects and it's been fun to do something creative together. He takes the photos and I make up concepts and art direct. We are going to have to find some other people to shoot though other than me...there's a girl who works at the local burrito shop that I think would be interesting to shoot...she kind of looks like a english doll with and afro. Anyway, the above photo is an concept called Things I Hold Dear To Me and the idea is to photograph peoples hands with three things in their palm that they hold dear to them, are important to them, or hold close to their hearts. My hand held a tiny gold horse with wings to represent my love for anything whimsical and imaginative, my grandmother's cameo that she left me, and a simple white flower to represent my appreciation for natures beauty. I think Braden took a great shot. Wouldn't it be a lovely display to shoot 100 peoples hands and have a whole wall of framed hands? Braden can shoot it for his projects for school, and I can style the objects.
Above is another shoot we worked on. There was this really cool wall by our house and I really loved the graphic quality of the lines.....The light was amazing and I love the distortion Braden captured in the shadows. And I love my red bike. And I love my french bulldog.
