"Bubble Gum Boy"

Here are three shots Caroline, Derrick and I worked on. Again, high contrast is displayed in these photographs. We lit each photo separately -- one light for the model in front and one for the background.

These shots are for this young woman's own personal collection. "I want some sexy photos of myself, one day I will be old and will want to look back at my glory days."
