Pinup Girl Crystal

This is the same Crystal that I had the pleasure meeting at last year’s photo shoot. This year she was wearing an Asian themed dress when I had a chance to photograph her. What a difference a year makes. This year I had a much larger collection of equipment, and a lot more experience to pull from. The result are some significantly improved images.

Crystal probably had the most unique poses that I shot aboard the SS American Victory. I’m guessing that she is hoping to fill her portfolio with more fashion work, which is something that she seems to be suited for. She has a long, slender body that may have been over-elongated by my wide lens. Her hair stood out among the other models. I give kudos to her make up artist for coming up with an interesting style, but not-too-interesting that it becomes distracting.

Crystal was very willing to take direction, though I was not providing her with much input at that time of the day. I took her to the same room that I shot Tia in, trying to reproduce some of my better lit shots at different angles. I think the indoors shots resulted in a couple good photographs, but it took a lot of mediocre shots to get them. God bless digital for allowing me to take a hundred shots just to get 1 great one.
