i tend to neglect the gradient tool in photoshop and saw some really neat work in a model mayhem portfolio that inspired the work below.  just playing around with gradients. too lazy to use the pen tool tonight. i used the magnetic lasso at a pixel feather of 1 and then covered up any "mistakes" with the paisley, the crown and the 'glow'.

so christina has been telling me about matt cusson for over a year now.  he's wicked talented.  wicked down to earth.  wicked check him out here and here too. matt joined the photoshoot at bella nova salon (in foxboro, ma) a few sundays ago.  yes.  i am still working on these photos.  ;)

here is a before and after on mr. matt cusson.  the biggest changes include fixing the distraction (me) in the reflection of his sunglasses and then adding some contrast and grunge to the image.  holler!  KMD

oh look!  a link to my old website of wedding work!  :)

posts coming soon!  :)

i will be posting some of my new artwork here on this blog!  in the meantime, check out some of my older work here at deviantart.

christina wanted me to shoot one of her clients, mary.  she was thinking punky brewster.  spunky punky.  boy o boy was mary spunky.  lol.  we had lots of laughs.  she felt more comfortable dancing than doing headshots.  she's the banner to this blog.  all mary.  :)  here is a lil before/after headshot of mary in her 2nd outfit (not punky brewster).  i should post all of the outtakes, as there were plenty.  HA!  hair and make-up by the lovely and talented christina elfar of bella nova salon in foxboro, MA.  make your appointment today!  (508) 549-9911  KMD
