Yoga Mom Mori Girl: A Very Rare Up-Doo [Orange Gradient Filter] 002

Here's the rest of the photos from this set made WITH the orange gradient filter (DSLR Photography).

Many kids and young people have asked me to share my stuff like this for their prom or wedding ideas and inspirations.

To all of the folks whom have recently begun following me on Twitter, a big thanks.

I apologize that much of my content I share on their is varied and includes finance "boring stuff" or politics. I don;t plan on that to continue forever, but there's a specific reason as to why I share those, and once that is all wrapped up, hopefully sooner than later, I will most likely be required to remove all of that stuff anyway. if my twitter goes private for a while, it means I'm undergoing legal contractual sensitive stuff...

But, that will be a good thing in the end because I'll have much more options. Sorry to sound cryptic... and don't dig to much into it if you don't want any trouble, like I've been going through. Don't worry. I'm not breaking any laws, in fact I follow them. ;)

If, by any chance, you've liked anything I've shared/published here and you'd like to share your own recreation, interpretations, inspirations, or re-imaginings of stuff I've done, by all means share the link in the comments here or on Google+.

I'm not a snobby grown-up or creepy predator person, so I won't bite off your head, or stalker you. LOL!

Your comments are also welcome.

You can find me all over the internet as "BlackUniGryphon".

Feel Free to share these blog entries.

I have more from this set coming up without the orange graduated filter.

Hopefully, instead of just looking at pretty stuff, or stuff you like, you might also be learning something, instead of just rotting your brains. XD

if you are interested in purchasing an Orange gradient filter maybe you might want to click the adds I've programed here, into my blog and help a girl make a few pennies.

I've worked very hard to get some good advertisers for this blog, so if you see anything you might like, not only would I appreciate you klicking and giving them your business, but they will appreciate it too.

All of my arts and content are more a labor of love and often done at my own expense, and I do not make much at all, if ever. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate even the smallest penny, because I do.

Share, Like, comment, repost, pass it on, Pin in....
Need a friend? I'm here...

Do you do something similar? Let's connect.

I'm also open to female artists and creative types in the South Shore Greater Boston Area. Want to do photoshoots, creative projects, and you're not a drama spewing diva, let me know.

I'm NOT A RACIST, not a religious crazy person, nor an agenda pushing freakazoid, also not a drug addict. So, as long as you're cool, and aren't bothered by my being a Mom, DON'T HEAR VOICES IN YOUR HEAD, and you'd like to collaborate, maybe we could work something out.

Boho Chic Feather Earrings Raver [Indoors] 002

Here are some more frames from this photoshoot.

These ones have an old style analogue filter. I like using low-tech effects A LOT, because they are simple, easy, and effective. Even tho' I'm really good at Photoshop, I don't have a lot of time to spend on EVERY FRAME to do an effect, when I could just do it analog instead. Often times THE BEST effects are the most simple low-tech tricks.

 I also find that rigorous, frequent practice, and even experimentation makes you a better artist and photographer. I'd rather my photos come out as close to perfect as they possible as they can... because I think mine I'm never totally satisfied with... the nature of the beast I guess... there are thousands of photographers better than I am.... but, I try.

At the same time, I also like a mixture of "realness" and prefer to keep a flaw in the photos to look intentionally less than perfect, like the proverbial "Persian Flaw"... which seems sort of "Zen" to me.

Altho' I HATE the ugly Harry Potter scar on my face, I tend to keep it untouched on my photos of myself. Why? Because in real life I have an ugly scar on my face. I also have hideous sun damage on my forehead which gives it a crepe paper texture. I hate it. HATE IT. But I often leave don't even bother to apply makeup to it because it can look even worse in the photo.... It's actually a simple procedure to fix the skin damage on my face, however, I don't have the funds to currently do so. I also suffer from psoriasis.

In my real like, I generally do not wear makeup, unless I'm working in a professional setting the requires me to, like when i worked at the bank. I'm also nowhere near as beautiful as it seems in my photos. I tell people this often, but they don't believe me. I'm just an ordinary looking woman.

Honestly, if you gave me enough time I could make anyone look good if I photographed them. I know several tricks, and techniques WITHOUT any Photoshop touch-ups. I just understand how to use my technology, and equipment. I can ALSO draw your portrait with pastel or charcoal and you will look even better in my drawing than you do in the photo, but ALSO still look JUST LIKE YOU.

Like I said, I'm an artist. I like beautiful things, but I also like thoughtfulness, and perspective.

I hadn't realized how emotive these turned out... kinds weirds me out... whatever... people seem to like this weird stuff... *shrugs*

Like I mentioned, these were actually just test frames...
