Shoot Ideas

The following is a list of shoot ideas...

I will be very picky selecting with whom I shoot these ideas.
I also may shoot the same idea with more than one person.
Some are marked as "Done" in parenthesis after the idea. These are ideas
I've already shot with someone but would like to shoot with others. Examples available upon request.

• 1: 1920's lounge/nightclub singer. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 2: Duality. One model showing a juxtaposition of 2 completely different life choices. In one, she is a very successful business woman. In the other, a poor street musician. Show the positives and negatives of each.


• 3: Elven warrior princess. 'Nuff said.


• 4: Lady in the fog. Long white dress. Taken on a day with fog in the morning just as the sun is coming up.


• 5: Centuries. One model plays all parts. Model in late 1600's outfit posing for painter in late 1700's outfit. Photographer in late 1800's outfit is taking a photo of them both. Photographer in mid to late 1900's outfit taking a photo of all of them.


• 6: Close up shots (parts) of model in the process of getting dressed/undressed taken in various stages. Could involve some implied and/or nudity. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 7: Anything but clothes. This is where YOU get creative. Come up with an idea to cover yourself using anything but articles of clothing.


• 8: Insecurities-Think of a way to express your insecurities. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 9: Fruit Shoot-These are usually headshots so outfits may not be important. Using a fruit of your choice, do your hair and makeup to match the fruit you are eating. The object is not to look exactly like the fruit, but to make it more of a subtle likeness. If you are walking down the street, people might notice a particular style, but most wouldn't put it together with the fruit until they see you with the fruit. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 10: Marionette. Some Photoshop required. My ultimate goal with this one is to have a photo of a model as both puppet master and marionette...controlling him/herself.


• 11: "Where are they now?" Pick a fictional character from the past, cartoon, comic strip, pop culture icon, and do a shoot showing where they are now and what they are doing. These can be extremely humorous.


• 12: Girls working on a vehicle. This one is meant to be fun, quirky, and humorous. It's a dirty job.


• 13: Mother Nature and the Four Seasons. The idea is to take a photo of a woman dressed as Mother Nature and composite that with photos from all 4 seasons.


• 14: Behind closed doors.


• 15: Walking on Eggshells-metaphor.


• 16: Tortured soul. I'm sure there could be a number of ideas for this.


• 17: Conceptual photos.

The following ideas may require some nudity.

• 18: Shibari.


• 19: Shower. Open area with just the shower head visible. Single hard light shining from behind the model creating an almost silhouette effect. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 20: Bodyscapes. Various lighting, angles, etc. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 21: Huntress. One female model dressed similar to an Amazon warrior. One body painted to look like a cross between human and tiger/leopard/etc. One male model as an escaped slave being hunted.


• 22: Bareback on a horse. Possibly Photoshop the horse into a unicorn.


• 23: Figure work. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 24: Art creating art. Nude female model welding a "scrap sculpture" of a nude female model.


• 25: Another art creating art. Nude female model painting a nude portrait of herself. This I see as an implied nude but would require you to be nude (out of focus).


• 26: Tape outfits. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 27: Body paint: Various ideas. (Done. Ask for examples)


• 28: Body paint: Pixelated Person.


• 29: Body paint: Salvador Dali inspired painting.
