Broken Doll Indeed...

Model: Marsherrie Lipszz Madkins
MUA/Hair/Clothing Design: EatYour Heart Out

Here you have my take on the classic "Broken Doll" - sort of a jazz riff on the theme or deconstruction to barrow a cooking term.

This shot is exactly how I feel as I write this at the end of a long, long day. :-) The collaboration with EatYourHeartOut has been a long time coming - we've been trading ideas for more than a month, and had finally settled on a sort of Twisted Doll Shoot - one where the fashion was inspired by dolls. Well the day finally came, and we lost our MUA & Hiar stylist to a death in the family in the early am. Upping the level of difficulty we also lost one of our 2 models that am for a personal emergency, and just to add insult to injury the weather changed on us scraping the original location plans by gusting up to 40 miles an hour, hovering 20 degrees lower than the promised 70, and having a constantly shifting cloud/light base.

Lucky for us, in sniffing around places we probably shouldn't have, my friend Mark Heaps was approached by a character offering to let us shoot in his "space" for a proper donation. Well we leaped on it, grabbed the gear out of the cars, banged out as many shots and looks as we could in 60 mins (including setup and tear down).

This one is down with a mix of PCB Einstein's and gridded flashes. It was taken with a 70-200mm, from the a near by balcony floor - an I have to say Marsherrie nailed it. She heard me yelling and waving and somehow understood me. More remarkable though is this was in the middle of being shot by the 2nd shooters Darrin Cherry and Bryan Lott who were on the ground floor just out of sight (she had been standing for them, laid down for me, and then got back up for them as I hustled for the stairs after getting what I wanted - wish more models were that good).
