Super Fun Experience with Jeff "The Savior"

Today was an amazing shoot! Jeff Caperton came in and modeled some really fun cosplays. He brought not only superman, but HULK, Captain America, and even a full Spidey Costume. This was a really great time to flesh out some fantastic composite ideas.

It was a pleasure and privilege to work with Jeff. He is a Hollywood actor and model, and has a lot of solid talent. Our main goal was to get a shot of him tearing open his shirt and revealing the Famous Superman S. This shot was simple enough and didn't take much effort. We did several versions of it. One with glasses, positioning to tie, stretching the shirt more or less and also posing his head to look off into the distance.

In the end we came up with some great shots and the final composites came out great!

The Process and what it takes "Polar Princess"

To give you a little taste of what it takes to make an image like this. This image is comprised of 40 different layers, 16 different images, Recreated clothing, additional jewelry, makeup touch ups, and several color gradient changes, temperature adjustments, and light enhancements. An image like this takes me any where from a few hours to a full day to create.

To the Right is a before and After Image to give you an idea of how much can be done with some photoshop love.

Hannah's Shoot "Angel, Devil, Alice, & Cinderella"

The month of Halloween is the perfect time to get people to come into the studio with their cosplay (Halloween Costumes). My niece had picked out a darling devil costume for Halloween so I had her and her mom come over to the studio to shoot.

I had already done some research on some reference images with devils. But I thought the devil costume alone would not be enough. I had Hannah bring over 3 costumes. One being the devil, angel and her daily wear. This would help create a great composite of her looking at the devil and angel on her shoulders.

I then used her angel costume and repurposed it for several very different composites. That is one thing I learned from this shoot is that you can use one costume for a lot of different characters. I went ahead and used that costume for the angel, Cinderella, and Alice composites. I was very pleased with this shoot and gained some great experience.Type your paragraph here.
