I've always fantasized about becoming a famous fashion photographer--kind of like Annie Leibovitz
or Herb Ritts (who I actually knew when I was an undergrad at Bard College.) Yes, in fact, he actually photographed me giving a poetry reading.
But, I digress....
Really, I love the idea of fashion photography and so, I enlisted the help of my friend's daughter. Her name is Julianna and she agreed to pose for me. Isn't she gorgeous?!
She's a sophomore in college, but I can't tell you where because she doesn't want all her fans hounding her while she's trying to study in the college library!
My husband and I live on Waquoit Bay and so it's a perfect spot for photo shoots. We thought the Wellingtons would be a nice contrast for the red evening gown. Julianna actually wore this gown to her senior prom. I provided the "Russian" fur hat.
I think this may be my favorite photo of her. So ethereal!
Okay, I actually think this is my favorite photo of her. And the blue feather boa?
I bought that in Paris during a recent visit. Tres chic!
The light was so beautiful that day and really shows off her incredible bone structure. Such a beautiful girl, and yet, so incredibly intelligent. She scooped up lots of scholarships during her senior year.Bravo, Julianna!
Gorgeous girl!! How fun to play like this. I love the one with the blue feather boa!
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful day.
