Zoetica Pwn3d the Forest

Zoetica Pwn3d the Forest by Lou O' Bedlam.
Zoetica gave me an excellent birthday present: her.

And let's just pause right here to clear that up, before you all freak out that I'm engaging in some wacky birthday slavery.

On Sunday, Zoetica and I went to my current favorite park, had ourselves a photo shoot. She chose two outfits for their utter incongruity with ol' mother nature. She posed for me, and if you've ever seen Zoetica's work, you'll know she's a science-damned master of posing. We shot, laughed, mocked weird children. Our favorite things, really.

That was present #1.

Then she treated me to brunch at Roscoe's, where most of the conversation revolved around "oh my god this is so good how do they make it so good i don't understand every time and this waffle is nom nom tasty but let's eat some of this succulent nom nom nom chicken breast and oh look the most perfect piece of cornbread ever nom nom nom nom."

Pretty much a perfect morning, right there.

So thanks, Zoetica!!!

Shot of Zoetica in mad pouty face because she's forced to wait for Roscoe's is up on the blog: blog.louobedlam.com

I think this is one of your best portrait roids! I like its intensity and clarity, how close you are, the background and how the background complements her purple hair!

Her hair always seems to be more or less the same shape whenever you take a picture of her; is this accomplished through forcefields or subtle architecture? That's the question I have.
