Two more backstage with Dottie Diamond

September 18, 2009

I’m loving this project – it’s fueling my creative fire big time. These will form a companion to the main Carnival of Sins project. I have no idea where this project will end up, but the journey is very exciting! These shots are meant to look like they’ve seen better days, and are candid views of life backstage at the Carnival. I’ll be shooting similar ones for the other girls and characters.

Carnival of Sins: Backstage with Dottie Diamond

September 1, 2009

More Carnival of Sins! This is Dottie. We shot one of her main characters today, and it’s going to seriously rock! The retouching on that image will take me a few months, so for now, here are a few of her characters ‘backstage’ at the Carnival of Sins….

Mandy – Carnival of Sins…

August 25, 2009

I’ve long been a believer that photographers need to shoot projects that get their creative juices flowing. While I love wedding photography, and pin-up photography, I do feel the need to let loose and be creative with no barriers from time to time. This year I’ve embarked on a project called ‘Carnival of Sins’. Yes, I’m aware that Mötley Crüe had a tour with that name… !

My Carnival of Sins is based around a Victorian era freak show, with stunning pin-ups in weird and wonderful scenes. It’s quite the project, and it may end up taking a couple of years to complete. As images are ready I’ll be sharing.

First up – Portland Pin-Ups Contract Girl, Mandy Apple. Seen here in two vignettes:

“The Knife Thrower’s Assistant”
COS_KnifeThrow

“The Lion Tamer”
