Tigerlily

Ever since Izzy gotten this Tiger mask for Halloween, she had this idea for a shoot. So, like always I'm down but we shot she had a shoot with another photographer. Because of the time they took, and his first shoot is a closed session rule. I lose a lot of reason to shoot. I was just beyond irritated.

They  finally finish and we went about our day. After a few hours, I was finally in the mood to shoot again. So for the first half, I wanted to use some of the things I had but never used.

After a few shots, she was not feeling the background. As this was her idea, I had to respect. I changed the background to an all white one. I was gonna blow out the background to make it crisp white. That wasn't what she was looking as this was her idea and I had to respect it. Izzy told me what she was exactly wanted and after a few test shots we finally got what she was looking for. A white background but not completely white and a lighter lighting setup.

There are things which nobody would see unless I photographed them.

I see little of more importance to the future of our country and of civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist. If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.
