Description
Before The World Was Made
William Butler Yeats
If I make the lashes dark
And the eyes more bright
And the lips more scarlet,
Or ask if all be right
From mirror after mirror,
No vanity's displayed:
I'm looking for the face I had
Before the world was made.
What if I look upon a man
As though on my beloved,
And my blood be cold the while
And my heart unmoved?
Why should he think me cruel
Or that he is betrayed?
I'd have him love the thing that was
Before the world was made.
photographer: Patsy DeMaria

She doesn't look happy. I like this though, striking features and the perspective really draws attention to the eyes.

Patsy is a wonderfully talented photographer based outside of Philly. I shot with her when I shot with whitman o'rourke and melvin back in March or so.
I'll give you a call next week...yes? Oh...and are you gonna be in Southern CA around July 20 to 27th at all?

Oh goodie! I was hoping that you might say that! I'll probably only be able to schedule one or two shoots given the family stuff I'll be doing, so YOU are on the agenda Ms. S!

I think that the photographer and I were going for something slightly timeless and slightly on the gothic side without being *too* gothy-poo..... Dramatic, yet not overwhelming.
