Model: Gretchen-horns test shoot

Meet the fall fairy.  What started out as a test shoot to see the appearance of the horns under a flash, took on it's own individuality through the amazing modeling of Gretchen, and makeup by Alicia.

I really had no ideas when we started shooting.  All I knew was that I wanted to continue practicing my lighting, and I didn't want to do the shoot "half way."  Gretchen really took the shoot into her own hands, pulling off all the grace and beauty of a greek statue. 

I liked the photos so much, I decided to photoshop her into a new location, one that would really help tell it's own story-something beyond just a "test shoot."

The horns are made from tinfoil, paper mache, string and paint, duck taped to a headband.  You will be seeing them again later!
