FANTASY
PORTRAITS
This series i started in 2015. I was starting to have success growing a business out of my photography when I had a back injury. I spent a lot of time using photoshop while I was on a slow road to recovery. My mobility was limited, and most of my time was spent sitting.
For each of these, the idea was to start out using a background made of a macro nature photograph, and then to try to light the scene close enough with a model to more easily make a composite image.
