Wicked

This picture was just for fun. I liked the juxtaposition of the solemn statue and the whispering witches in the background. A shout out to Photoshop's new "Content Aware" retouch brush for easy (undetectable) removal of a light pole blocking the Wicked Witch of the West.

Modern Girl

OK,ok I cheated on this picture and dropped Courtney in to show scale. My philosophy is "all's fair in love and photography." Whatever it takes to realize the artist's vision is fair game. For example, this series of pictures looks (I think) non-manipulated. In fact, I worked with dodging, burning & coloring in Lightroom and Photoshop to achieve the look I wanted on every single one of these pictures.
