"This collection is based on the concept of a seductive vampiress called the Red Widow who withholds such alluring power, should anyone succumb to her temptation, would fall to the clench of her bite." ~Tawz Imagery
Tori Heron, Angel Masquerade, and I had a lot of fun creating a gothic photoshoot together. It was a very different experience for me, as with gothic shoots I'm usually the model, and I've never attempted to put 'gothic' makeup on a model. Of course Angel was incredibly patient with me and put up with my shenanigans trying to get colours right; placing stencils, moving them, trying to hold them still, overspraying them, not holding them straight, and having to do them about three times! Thank goodness for patient models.
We shot at a church near Tori's studio in Queanbeyan at dusk on a very rainy day so we got some incredible lighting. I wish we would have had the luck of capturing an image as lighting flashed but we didn't end up managing it (but not for a lack of trying).

Then we moved to Tawz Imagery's studio to get some detail shots of the makeup. Tori had set up a cobweb background which we had fun climbing in and Angel got stuck to it so many times we lost count. We even managed to get some beautiful images of candle smoke and I taught Angel how to growl for a photo! All in all, it might have been a late night but damn was it a fun one!
