these girls.
oh these girls.
they smile, they laugh, they talk. they are both so beautiful. me and my sister, Beth, went over to their flat on monday to do this vintage session. their flat was full of vintage goodies and amazing paintings and old tables and victorian pictures.
we found a ridiculously sweet alley-way behind their flat. we took advantage of the sweet alley-way. why yes, yes we did. Beth, my sister, is the best assistant you could imagine when it comes to photo shoots: she has many roles to play. while I'm snapping away, interjecting at times to boss someone around, she is Desmond or Harry or Monsieur Louis. Desmond was the young man that our lady in the white dress was leaving behind, Harry was the man who our lady in the white decided to run away to and Monsieur Louis is always intervening to say something happily unhelpful.
and that was just for this session. when it comes to doing kiddos...wow, it gets pretty fun.
anyway. these girls were very patient with me. I'm pretty bossy, very spasmodic with my ideas, extremely weird and silly to boot. they were amazing. or I should say they are amazing, because it's not like they're dead or anything. I think.
which picture do you like best?
love you all.
be good, find a vintage buddy (or a Harry!) and ride a goat.

Deletethese are just simply lovely. hmm, I think one of my favorites is the very first, with the mirror. so cool & creative. and can I have that white dress? bah. you're amazerifying. yeah I made up that word.
ReplyDeleteI honestly think my very favorite shot out of all of these is the one where the one in the white dress is holding the bike. just too fantastic for words. it needs to be sung in a song or something.
