Avant-garde temped Creativity.Inspritation post 4

Hello Fxers and welcome back  this time around I wanted to do an Avant-grade make up for inspiration Avant-grade is anything new exciting or out there that artists come up with sense I have a love for both photography and being out there I thought I would share my photo shoot the makeup and the thought and editing behind the whole process  so lets get started with some pictures
This was probably one of the most changeling  shoots I ever did because I was blind shooting it was pitch black and the only light or angle or time I saw her was when the light of flash came on so that small frame of time was the only way I could adjust to take these night photos I think they came out pretty good for not being able to see

Makeup - the idea around the makeup was just to be crazy lots of blues to match her newly blue gray hair and hints of copper because I thought it added a different element  lots and lots of glitter


Shot -  Bust shot was done at night because I don't have a black drop or any sort of photography studio I like to work with whatever nature gives me

Edit ~ the makeup and her being the main focus of the photo the only editing required was to brighten the lips and eyes so they would draw in at main focus


Shot ~ wide shot to get the creepiness and back drop of the woods behind her I think this adds mystery to the shot because she is actually stand on a broken tree stump but at first glace it looks as if nothing is underneath her

Edit~ when editing this photo I wanted to make the background striking so even thought the model is the main focus you cant help but look at what's around her I used a darkening filter on just the background so it would be that much more intense and I once again brightened the lips and eyes
Shot ~ is a close up i wanted all eyes to be on her makeup and hair to achieve this all black background i put her on a path that was competle blackness for at less a couple of feet no tress in sight  and zoom in as close to her face while still getting the kind of shot that I wanted

Edit ~ for this edit a brightened the whole face makeup I wanted it all to be seen


 Shot ~ full body for this shot I thought it be interesting  to keep the black background but have more in. So this shot was taken by a spillway that drops down really far . There was a bridge type crossing that she sat on top to make the overall photo more interesting
Edit ~ the edit was kept simple by brightening  the eyes and lips area and messing around with the lighting and the contrast. 

The overall feel for this shot was supposed to be fun and out there and i for a random shoot that we decided  to do last minute  i think it came out really good. 
Until next time Fxers  !!!

  1. This photoshoot looks great! The makeup definitely looks avant-garde! I like the simplistic editing, and it's true, that second picture had me doing a double-take. I appreciate the fact that you take the time to explain why you shot and edited the photos the way you did. Well done!
