When the snows fall
And the white winds blow,
The lone wolf died
But the pack survives.
All hail the Queen of the North.
Some days are a bit blue. Life gets a bit too much and your outlook matches the grey skies above. Sometimes you need a change of scenery, an explosion of colour to bring the sunshine back in that hides behind the clouds. But other times, I find it’s okay to embrace the gray.
A goal of mine for the next year is to go outside more on these days and photograph dreamy aesthetics in the weather. I want to look for and showcase more beauty in every type of weather. There’s so much in life to find beautiful!
But for now, I thought I’d share images from an older shoot from when I first moved to Atlanta and was spreading my little model wings here. Vania over at Vania Photo Studios had a free night, so I played guinea pig for some lighting and post-production techniques she wanted to try. These pictures are a couple of the results! Anyone getting a Stark of Winterfell vibe from the first one?
Here’s a behind-the-scenes selfie from the photoshoot. You may think that’s my hair, but nay…if you’ve been around my blog or social media sites long enough, you’ve more than likely heard my tales of hair woes. This is actually beautiful lace front wig I scored for $60 at a local beauty supply store (I pushed the wig back a little to let me actual hairline show through). Now I can galavant around looking and feeling like a proper elven maiden with long flowing locks.
The photos are beautiful and really evoke a sense of brooding. I loved your story about the wig, which really added to the overall look.
Why thank you! 🙂 I was channeling some Lyanna Stark when doing this shoot (and goodness knows there’s a lot of brooding in Game of Thrones).
