THANK YOU to www.obsidiandawn.com/ and www.pixelsandicecream.com/ for the wonderful brushes! I've used them for a few of my photos, and they are great..go there!!

I currently use a nikon d300, along with an 18-55mm lens, 70-300mm lens, 50mm portrait lens, and various add-ons like telephoto and wide angle....My lighting equipment includes alien bee strobes, continuous light w/softboxes and occasionally off camera flashes (vivitars)....I also still use my canon digital rebel xti, with various lenses from time to time...

If you'd like to see my Explore stats, you can go to bighugelabs.com and type my email addy or flickr name into the "flickr DNA" section or the "scout" section..and 'include dropped'...it's the only way to accurately see my explore stats!)

*PLEASE, no stealing of my photography!!
there's nothing more frustrating then receiving emails informing you that someone has been using your photography as his/her own.

*PLEASE, do not add me if your page is porn-related in anyway. (we all know what kind of pages i'm speaking of)

***************************************************
TO ANYONE WHO THOUGHT I HAD A DEVIANTART PAGE!:

Recently, it was brought to my attention that some lunatic had stolen most of my pictures from here, and created a deviantart page with them...not only did they steal the photos but they were pretending to be ME!

The profile was ridiculous, the commentary the person made was embarassing...it made "me" sound like a moron...

I would just like to say to everyone-- I HAVE NEVER HAD A DEVIANTART PAGE...the page (that horrifyingly enough, was up since JANUARY) was not mine! it was an imposter!!

Fortunately, due to my flickr friends rallying, and leaving nasty comments...and bc I threatened the imposter with legal action, he/she has taken it down...and it appears that deviantart banned the page...

Unfortunately, the damage is not totally removed ....I just received a message from someone saying "I'm sorry you were banned from deviant" ---this person clearly did not understand that it was a fake profile (which I, myself, had removed)...they just think that I was banned myself---which is really humiliating, especially with a well respected site like deviant..

SO, just to set the record straight for everyone---I HAVE NEVER HAD A DEVIANTART PAGE..the page that was up that had my artwork on it was a FAKE...I had it REMOVED...the person who made the fake profile was banned from deviantart, not me.

Thank you everyone for all your support!

xo,
Lulu

    and always fun to look at."

    "Her talent is clearly unstoppable, and infinite. She continually wows me with the wonderfully off-kilter world she creates in her imagery. She is as beautiful as she is skilled behind (and in front of) the camera. And on top of that, Lucia's a lovely human being.
    She's like the Cindy Sherman for a new generation. Except she's not. Because she's her own creator, and her own myth-maker. So maybe it's best not to try and put a label on Miss Lulu and just enjoy her immensely enjoyable photographs."

    "Miss LuLu is my favorite of favorite Photographers on Flickr. I heart her with a *Star* She has a signature style that is all her own. I always look forward to seeing her new work and when it surfaces in my contacts photos I am filled with excitement! I know that this sounds a little over the top but you have to keep in mind that the highlight of my life used to be my sticker collection and my Barbie trading cards. Lulu is the adult version of that kind of fun for me and I treasure each and every one of her photographs :D"

    "The first thing that drew me to Lucia's photostream was her screen name. Little did I know, Miss Lulu and the Teaspoon Shortage was just an introduction into the world of Lulu's photographs. With her dynamic and unique post-processing, spectacular and creative self-portraiture, and her work featuring different models, Lucia is destined for success. Please keep creating."

    "Lucia wasn't what I expected to arrive when I called the plumber just before midnight. But there she was at my door, toolbelt, suspenders, and chewing something that made my eyes water. My call to them 3 hours earlier ended with me crying because no one in Pennsylvania would help me plunge my toilet after my 2 year old had thrown my limited edition John Wayne teaspoon down there, but this great new jersey "all nite" plumber said they'd have someone right out. Just like those 80s teen movies, I could tell under this rough exterior was a true princess, but I couldn't let her know this. She asked me which toilet, and as I proceeded to the north wing of our house, I bent over the toilet in question and demonstrated the event. A laugh errupted as I was bent over the circle-de-porcelin. "I'm the one that's suppose to have the plumbers crack," she said standing there Al Bundy style. "but you're the only leaning over showing YOUR tramp stamp". I explained the drunken late night which concluded in my getting a tattoo of a butterfly on my lower back. We traded stories for a bit while she used some crazy crank device to get my teaspoon back. This plumbing thing was just a fun evening job she told me. Photography was her thing, and she went on about all the creative things she had in mind.

    I paid by debt card and didn't hear from her for about 30 years until she resurfaced here, commerating my lost teaspoon with her name here. Who knew??"
