i use to take this "more prepared" photos.
I used to have a make up artist, choosed the girls that i wanted to be the models, the clothes i wanted them to wear ( most of them were part of my old vintage dresses), and the backgrounds/decoration to be on it. this one was to recreate the 1920´s.
and the model was mamen. i still love this photo.
they have been part of a few exhibitions, here and in the u.s, not published though.
