Professor and Herbalist, the lovely Maria

Tomorrow I am shooting Mystic Woman, Maria!


I have designed, yet again, another complex lighting scheme and complex theme in general.  The shoot involves plants, herbs (fresh and dry), and a variety of Maria's favorite talismans, and things that she is particularly fond of.  Maria is an absolutely fascinating woman and I had the honor of visiting with her and her husband in her home last weekend.  This ALWAYS helps with the shoots, as I can see the woman in her environment and suggest things/props to bring to the shoot that would photograph particularly well.  


Mystic Woman, and photography enthusiast,  Dawn, is coming to assist in the studio with Maria's shoot.  I am so grateful to you Dawn!


We hope to have another magical, phenomenal, and beautiful shoot with Salem's very own...Maria!
