Mikayla - Fun With Textures

[brad]

I've never played with textures much... but if I can get them to come out like this more often, I may have to change that.



Oh... and the girl is 13 years old. I'm afraid I'd never let her out of the house.

Nice! This is a neat idea.

And Wow! Gotta just DIG that background.

Hey yeah this is great! Would love to see a higher res version of it, but I think its candid, cute and fun. Well shot too.

How far can we go on raising photography skill? Stunning job.

Really nice stuff Brad. And I agree with your views on the 13 year old....

[brad]

Thanks, y'all.. she's a good kid, just wants to grow up too fast.. like most 13 year olds, I guess. I think her mom and I have finally convinced her that if she wants to model in DFW, she's going to have to be more her age for now.

[JohnT]

I agree. Very well done.

Good job, Mr. Photographer! Very fun. Convinced her? GREAT job, dad & mom!

So the photo was shot in front of a red wall and the texture was applied in post?
Looks like a backdrop! Cool stuff.

Her dad is in Michigan.. she lives with Mom... and she loves the attention her looks bring her... hopefully mom will be able to break her of the wrong kind of attention.

Yes.. its a texture applied. The originals were shot against red seamless paper stuck up on the wall. After blending them together, I wasn't happy with the way the seams between the images came out, so I started playing with textures to cover them up.... and was really sold on how it looked.
