One of the many things that I enjoy about doing photoshoots is getting to see the behind-the-scenes work that goes into creating a fabulous photo.  It certainly takes lots of patience, a certain charm and a great sense of humor to work with someone like myself.  I am notoriously uneasy when I am getting my photo taken, yet always a bit rambunctious at the same time.

It was a great pleasure to work with Sauvage Photo and Edit again.  She always puts me at ease and makes it a very fun and productive day! This time around I had my good friend Kelly as my NiS Clara along with my wonderful spouse taking some photos of us while we worked.

As per usual, I brought all my props – chess board, chess set, trigger, Clara’s gun. And perhaps a few more things.

I thought it might be fun to recreate some fan art that I had seen. This proved to be a little tricky, as you don’t realize that illustrations and photo manips, no matter how good, are still not real people.  Getting some of the angles correct was bit challenging.

We managed to get some great shots, and I am really looking forward to seeing the finished product!
