11/30/2004: "See Food"

hema03 (61k image)

This was shot on the same day as the orange beaded hair shot in the November 22nd entry.
model: Hema
makeup and hair: Elke Von Freudenberg


It was one of those total random chance things that often happen. We were taking a little break and the model was actually eating a few pretzels. I just asked her to stick out her tongue and I fired off one frame. It's been one of the most asked about pictures in my portfolio ever since.

camera/film: Hasselblad, 150mm, Fuji Provia 100
lighting: Profoto ring light adapted for Speedotron power pack
other: Blur around model was done in Photoshop

Are my comments broken? I've had more hits than ever today and no comments... hmmm. Maybe I've offended everyone with my pretzel picture.

Hi Brooks! I soooo remember this girl, though I don't remember the shoot! LOL It is a small world, but in the world of fashion, it's ALWAYS a small world. Glad to hear things are going great....

No wonder it's the most asked about. Stunning photo. The light is killer.
