Jeans and Gels

A girl in her jeans, so simple, so clean, so often seen as well, it is after all a staple of jeans advertising. The wall behind Carla is a messy paint finish on an off-white base, but I wanted to put some colour into this image for impact.

Do you want to have great fun and make a complete mes of your studio?

To shoot with flour and other powders you have to be prepared to make a real mess of studio. Expect the powder to travel much further than you think, into all the corners of the space - no matter how big it is!

Finger paints are not just for kids - you should get some too!

Children's finger paints - definitely washable! Four colours, very primary, very dramatic. One naked model. One grungy background. Can we make the model look like the background?

How a $10 leaky hose pipe can make a $1000 photograph

Creating a good rain effect in a studio photograph is much harder than you would think. As human beings we are so used to seeing rain as something in motion, yet photography wants to freeze it.

How I Learned to Love the Giant Sock!

OK, I know this is a nude shot that doesn't actually contain any nudity, but the implications of the figure through the cloth are very exciting. This is an exaggerated form of abstracting the body into shapes, but because it hides as well as reve...
