whoa. i posted these images on facebook, but never got around to putting them up on the blog. they were shot in the studio at the very beginning of february on a lovely sunday. there were probably 6 or 7 models scheduled. there were 3 no shows, including a stylist. people really need to work on that. the ladies who did show up were treated to the christina elfar experience. with the help of jason olivera and alexandria gosetti, they transformed they already lovely ladies into works of art. head down to Bella Nova Salon, 369 Central St, Foxboro,
MA! shoot. i need christina to do MY hair. :) KMD

back one sunday at the end of september, we had 8 models come in. all 8 showed up. all 8 rocked. i think i posted a few 'teaser' images from this session before, but haven't posted more since then. our theme was 'black'....just a color to tie all of the images together. i'll eventually photoshop an ANTM style image of all the girls standing. it should be dope. :) i said dope.

oh! this is vic! this is from a completely different day, but i don't think i posted these on the blog yet. he was great to work with as well.

meet jude law. kidding. this is john. i absolutely love this picture. we shot outside because the studio was closed for the day and he used his car and an alley as his dressing room. :) that's the spirit! all models should be like john. so easy to work with. on time. professional. fantastic. awesome. wow. KMD
the jude:
they say it takes a great photographer to get a great photograph. what an amazing job by all involved - never would have know this guy was smacked in the face with a squash ball at maximum velocity only a few days before...?!? fix that tie jude, fix that tie!!!
love it.

i know. i know. i should be working on my website. BUT i scheduled shoots almost every sunday since may in order to post a new site with a new focus....so i have to edit all of those images first! :) i have another favorite from the matt cusson shoot. he wanted something vintage. something grungy. nothing clean. no sunny beaches. no rolling hills of prettiness. so this is another composite i created one night. background is a stock photo from this cat.
Ronny:
great job karin. it looks very cool. this will take me about a month to do. and the only way it would get done is because i would have to call you to do it for me.

stephanie is new to modeling. she's fun to work with and with time will gain some confidence behind the camera. it's intimidating! that's why i'm on the other side of the camera. lol. samantha of illustrious day spa did her make-up. hair by ms. kelly. i love the feathers. the gloves were samantha's grandmother's and we were very careful with them. this photo was shot in the stairwell over at CDIA. my favorite hallway in the whole world, for sure. there are huge windows and beautiful old hammered metal walls. if that makes sense....
for stephanie's retouch, i removed the hair that was falling across her shoulder/neck. i smoothed her neck and skin. elongated her fingers and slimmed her hand. it's not like she had a big hand, but the camera angle distorted it. i punched up the color in her make-up and brightened her eyes. enjoy!

Joanna:
It's amazing how those little changes make such a big difference. I love the detail in the glove.

the lovely kelly joined me a few sundays ago with samantha of illustrious day spa. we were shooting stephanie (i'll post one of her pictures next) and our second model texted to cancel. don't even get me started on models and cancelling or not showing up or being late. grr. anyway, kelly stepped in to be our afternoon model and we had a lot of laughs. this photo was one of my favorites. in the retouched photos, i fixed some stray hairs, added some more bangs, did a little work on her skin and then played around with some finishes/photo treatments? which one is your favorite?

so i fell in love with the make-up that samantha did for carina. i wish i could pull it off myself. :) carina is a dancer, who felt more comfortable behind the camera once she got off the stool and moved thru one of her ballet routines. i'll post a bunch of images from her shoot after this post, but this one is kind of a favorite. she's off to harvard in the fall. congrats and good luck, woman! p.s. she's wearing a tubetop. get your head out of the gutter! lol.

added eyelashes.
changed the make-up and eye color.
changed the catch lights in her eyes.
cooled the color of the image down.
and viola! voila! ta-dah! :) click on the thumbnail (bottom right) to see the "BEFORE". KMD

i wanted to start displaying one of my absolutely - hold on, pandora radio is asking me if i am still listening - absolutely favorite aspects of photography. it's more on the photoshop side. retouching. i love retouching. simple portrait retouching is cool, but i love fashion/beauty retouching. the kind you see in the magazine. we all know that even with all the make-up and stylists and trainers that celebrities have, they still don't look as good as they do without the help of the digital retoucher. we all have flaws. it is my job to make those flaws disappear. and boy, do i enjoy it. from here on out, you'll see more BEFORE/AFTER blog posts. here is jean before and after. and let me just remind everyone...you are beautiful in your 'before' picture. i'm just intensifying and magnifying your beauty in the 'after' picture. LOL.
