I am actually super into art and colors and took cosmetology and was an art major in high school and won many awards for my sculptures. the teacher would have to select one student nto be entered and i won a savings bond once and got pic taken with the local back that held the contest. i won some other contest from the local gardening company that like go around and plant flowers in public parks and all, you know every town has them its like the local beautification flower garden clubs, i won a huge gift basket too when i entered thier contest for best garden floral arrangement on doorsteps, i actually took the same sculpture that won the savings bond and made that my presentation and again won the contest!
i am ridiculous at hair skin nails and having an eye for colors thatl look good, plus i am into getting the fabrics for back drop at the material stores ect ect. if you want to go with me once he is ready let me know. i would love to , after you get your pics done how YOU want them,,,,,,,if youd let me try a few looks on youi too, You may like a few or not, but i spend the entire day at my shoots. you should go with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tom Couture is a great photographer too but he mainly does steam punk and weddings, check him out too, just google them,
i also have a friend who is a hobbyist who takes good pics with a nice camera now n again at my apt for me, then some my tom couture and my aldo pics on my web page were also taken here at my beach house,
all glittery fabrics aside, the best back drops are in nature. You cant compete with the goddess. ......!!!! that is art I just cant compeete with, whenever possible i think nature sky sand horizon is by far the sexiest thing aside from the human body the nature and earth are definetly equally as awe striking and amazing. i am an ocean person, not into mountains or woods or lakes, so i tend to wanna capture that element in my galleries when ever possible.
