Summer longing

...happens every year in February mainly. *sigh* Felt like posting something related to summer.




Foun this video while searching for new "chillout music". It's like cutest and most emotional thing i've seen lately. A true-life story about a unique and special friendship between a wild dolphin known as JoJo and his human companion Dean Bernal. Read more on youtube right below the video. Happy VD! :)

Unedited

Hehe, took a while to upload the pictures (I'm at Andres' place and internet is acting uberslow right now) Hmm, yea so now you see how the original (absolutely untouched) images look. I picked them kind of randomly, some close and some not, only where the model is me or my close friend, not a client. Put them togethr with the edited ones, so it would be easier to compare them. :D Have fun, comment or ask anything if you'd like. :)
(click on the pictures to see them larger, as always)

The Touch of Light

It was so refreshing to see the sun today and the starry sky yesterday. Took some advantage of the beautiful light in the morning and photographed myself(again). :)
*sigh* can't wait for the spring.







Enjoy...

Hmm

I was home alone some days ago. Like I had nothing better to do, tried to take some selfprotraits. Taking selfportraits alone is always quite funny. Since I don't have a remote controler I have to run across my room for every single picture. :D Most of the pictures aren't sharp at all and when I get to the right place I can't think of any good pose in such a short time. lol
Anyways I was too lazy to do anything with the pictures because they are too boring. :D Just added a frame. See it larger by clicking on it.



Listen/watch this video, at least it isn't that crappy as my selfportraits. :D

Corpse bride (1/3)

Didn't want to ruin Pille's mother's wedding dress, so I had to ruin it on photoshop, which I kind of regret because the stains look too fake. But oh well. At least the location is absolutely amazing and I hope to take more photos there. :D

Wicca (1/2)

Hmm, okay the first photo is more like a manipulation of two similar photos, I just tought it would add some morecreep to the picture . :) Pille took the photos and I played the little witch, Kadri helped with the reflector again. I was happy I didn't cath fire. :D Enjoy...





Hope you guys, who had the chance, watched the solar eclipse today!

Death Came (1/1)

Hehe, it's kind of funny I post photos like these on my birthday. :) They kind of look a bit funny to me in some way now. Note that the dead body changes her posesometimes. :D hmm, yeah I thought one photo would have been too few to post. Anyways the creepseries were taken really quickly, which I will be posting today and during the following days. Model is Pille and assistant Kadri. The idea was Pille's if I'm not mistaken. That's why she had to lay down on the wet and cold moss and grass in a bog.

The beauty of fall :)

Surprisingly this year i've managed to do several photoshoots during gorgeous colourful period in autumn. Took alot of photos of a family in the weekend. The weather was absolutely ethereal. :D yey. Finished sorting out the good pictures yesterday. Going to finish these in the weekend, because right now I feel quite crappy due to cold that I caught today morning. Eyes all watery and tired...=').
Pille asked me earlier about a picture I took of her last week right before she left home to go to uni. I had edited it and all but totally forgot about it. :) It's nothing special...hehe. Maybe finds some use on facebook. :D But here it is:




Oh yeah, lately I've thought a lot about experimenting with photography. Hmm yea maybe I even have some ideas but i'm not sure yet. Anyways I have to look for someone who could model for me. I'd like to take pictures of someone who hasn't posed for me yet. :D When I'm completely sure what and how I want to do next. I will probably announce you, just so you can write me back or reccomend someone who would be interested.
Anyways, I'ma go make a cup of tea and start watching a film or something (The Others, altough I've seen it several times but a long time ago)

Finished photos

Ok, I'm so proud I finished two more pictures from the last photoshoot. :D Sundays are somehow so inspiring. I tried to push myself the whole week to finish some more photos but I just couldn't. But today I actually really wanted to do it. hehe :)





Listened Evanescence the whole time I worked on the photographs. Kind of suits with the atmosphere. :D

Snowwhite wannabe :p

Ofcourse I'm not fabulousely beautiful like snowwhite should be hmm but yeah I actually just wanted to try how red lipstick suits me and take some photos. :D I have to admit, it's not the best colour for me. Anyways, the photo is taken by my Mum who first time took pictures with my camera ever. Wasn't so bad though. :P Oh and forgive me I haven't posted the photos of the costumes, I just don't have them yet...still... :D Ok now when I'll stop being so lazy I will post more of this photoshoot but right now only one.

Spooky O.O

I hope I don't get nightmares after looking at the photos tonight...hehe. Just wanted to try multiple exposures...the best way to achieve ghostly effect.

Santa, bring me a camera flash or something for christmas... :)

Here are some portraits of Olivia I took last week. The weather was awful on that day, it rained almost the whole day. So we had to stop taking pictures several times to prevent the camera getting wet. I was also kind of worried about the lack of natural light, because I don't have any flashes or studio lights. Fortunately most of the photos were sharp.



I had also requested to shoot a family on the same day but I canceled it, because it was later in the evening and there wouldn't have been enough light anyway. Still I took a few shots of the youngest child from the family, who was going to get christened in the weekend. I hope the parents are ok if I post a photo of her also.

Sweet... =)

Here are photos of Kadri I took on the same day when Pille's pictures. Added a little bit of sweet colours to the photos, thought it would suit with the theme and somehow with Kadri's personality(my opinion only). Hope you like these. :)

New serie with Pille

Dress and make-up by Pille. She was inspired by a musicvideo for Vermillion by Slipknot.
I also took photos of Kadri at that day, so once she was an assistant and the other tima was Pille helping...teamwork. Hehe :) I will soon post some photos of Kadri too when I have finished working on them (could be in some days or so).

:)

Hey. I had a photoshoot a few days ago. So, yea I was the model this time. :D I felt quite awkward while posing, cause I hadn't done it for a while. So we switched our places with Pille this time, she was the photographer. The assistant was Kadri. Many thanks to Kadri and Pille, oh and loads of thanks to Tarmo (Pille's brother) who brought my shirt when I had realized after arriving the location that I had forgotten it to Pille's place. I did te styling, make-up and post processing. Kadri and Pille helped me ripping my tights shirt though.

Enjoy!
