Description
Borrowed Bean's old prom dress for a quick and fun vintage themed shoot with ~surf182grrl who had never done modeling before.

I suspect there will be more shenanigans with the two of us in the future.

I just love that couch. We shot this in my Grandmother's dining room. ( Were she still around she'd wonder why we had the couch in the middle of the floor and halfway in the fireplace... )



Currently kindof unhappy with the post processing. Will fix on the morrow.

One word: classic.

Feeling eloquent, I am not. But I think that 'classic' sums it up appropriately.

...oh, and if your Gram was anything like my Gram she'd most likely walk into the room, look around, roll her eyes and smile, mutter something about never being too old to play dress-up, and offer to go through her things to find a hat to go with the dress.

Our grams need to get together. They'd have a blast.

Tiffany is gorgeous. Lovely photograph. That couch is awesome. I have a chair I found at a thrift store that has a very similar fabric.

That couch and your chair should get together and have tea. I am just a font of intelligent responses tonight...don't mind me. >.> I meant the getting together part though. It's been ages.

I almost pooped a little when I saw this haha
The comments have been way generous <3
There were still others that I liked more than this one; but it's the artist's eye to decide thanks again

Yah, I was teasing my laptop while playing with those images because I was bored. I'll likely play with more now that I'm back on a computer with cooperative photoshop. NEARLY pooped a little? I better try harder.

Thanks so much!! We may or may not be doing vintage stock like this in the future. Trial and error, we shall see.

YAY ITS TIFFERS! This is beautiful, she needs to come up and do more pictures with us! Hey, you think we could some how link the Bees up with my Nikon?

hrmhrmhrm... we'd need a couple rolls to test it on and a flash of sorts, but it is possible. I'll see if I have any generic sync adaptor dudes hanging around.

I think a little desaturation and increase in contrast would be nice. But the image as a whole is gorgeous and a totally epic title

Lindowyn In reply to Mollinda [2009-01-04 08:47:11 +0000 UTC]

I totally agree. My laptop and my desktop moniters are a world of difference. I sat down and looked at this later and went "was I smoking something?" before I realized the moniters were screwy. More is coming! YAY!

That seems to be the consensus. I shall play!
