Etchings projected on a nude with a $5 plastic pattern enlarger from Goodwill.
Study in Motion
Very simple, very messy set up. The model stood still while I made piles of sifted flour on various body parts, then she moved her various body parts. My biggest fear was that the studio lights would ignite the flour dust and we would explode. Thankfully that did not happen. If you have time to view these at full size I highly recommend it!
I would also like to note that my studio ceiling is only 6 1/2 feet high. The model was tiny, which gave her the ability to jump in my tiny studio. She’s amazing.
The Calm Before the Storm
Liquid Gold
This was one of the worst photo shoots to clean up. The model is covered in gold oil based body paint and honey. It was sticky and water resistant and the shower at the studio was pretty scary. I had to lay down a trail of plastic garbage bags so she could shuffle and drip her way to the shower. My models are the BEST!
Tangled
I cannot remember what I covered this poor model in, but I think it was very messy. Prune juice maybe?
Dry ice, no PS effects.
