A Sea of Shells, Paint & Pearls

 So I wanted to do something unique for a shoot, so I put creativity to work &

came up with a plan to make the origin of Aphrodite come to life.
Goddess of Love, Born from the Sea.

I themed this shoot with the colours blue, turquoise, green & gold.

Aka the colours of the sea, or at least how I imagine them to be.

 

The making of Aphrodite's crown

Step by step process of Ragnarok's work.

 



The detailing of Aphrodite's golden skirt filled with waves of starfish.

 

 I am very happy with the outcome of this shoot & all the amazing effort everyone put into it to help me out. 
With money paying for all the outfit supplies I think I dropped a little over $400.00 on this entire shoot, but was it worth it?

 100% I love how well everything fit together & how much support everyone has been giving me from just the one photo that we have released so far. <3

 

In 2013 I plan on crafting a heck of a lot more than I did in these previous years.
I love how I get to be so creative with my hands & then use these items in shoots, either as a model or as a photographer.

I have always been the creative type, but now it seems I am a little out of control ;)

 

 This photo shoot was done on October 9, 2012 in chilly 10 degree weather with a slight wind-chill.  

Born from the sea, I emerge as Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love.
(More photos from shoot coming soon)  

 

Special thank you to everyone who helped make this concept & shoot a success <3

You're such a fruit.

Don't play with your food.

Colourful, Fruity & One of a kind

Blinged out fruity hair pieces.

Feast Your Eyes

I made this piece for my 2010 Halloween Costume

I was a Punk Zombie

I figured colourful dismembered body pieces, with eyeballs

& quirky saying would do the trick!

I bought everything except for the "pins" from the Dollar Store

& made this piece in about 2 hours or so!
It needed 2 clips to hold it in, as the body parts were not light!



Custom Business Card Holder

Ever notice how there are so many different sizes, shapes & styles of business card holders,

but NON of them seem right to represent & display your cards?
Well that's exactly how I've been feeling,
So I made myself one,
JUST FOR ME!

*This fancy lil card holder displays my cards at a local Edmonton Fabutan Salon*
