Creative Shoot - Behind The Scenes

These are some behind the scenes photographs for a shoot I did yesterday. We had a hard time finding a location and it took a toll on our energy after a while but everything turned out great once we hit the spot. I worked with Candice and Lanaya for the first time and I enjoyed having them as company. I think its hard to know what you are going to get out of a model. They originally wanted a dancer for these photographs. I told them I was no dancer but that I could mimic the poses a dancer does. I don't think they really believed it til they saw it. I danced into all these positions I've originally done for my work (Modeling nude for Arts Colleges.) I don't have much of a portfolio that shows these skills so they had no idea whether I'd live up to the vision. But things were great. I got into character and felt myself move like a mysterious creature from some sort of fantasy story.
