Photographer Vicksburg Mississippi

I recently had the privilege of putting together a concept session with Vicksburg Performing Arts Company.  One of their dances is inspired by Edgar Allen Poe’s poem “The Raven”.  When Chesley and I were talking about the dances and she told me this, my head started spinning with ideas.  I put together a look for their make up and hair, and made some “gloves” for them to wear with their existing costumes.  I do have to say that my sister totally saved my butt, as she did all the make up for this.  Not only did she save me, she NAILED the look I was after.   After about 2 hours of hair and make up we were finally ready.  We traveled about 20 miles to get to the location that had the look and feel I was after.   Here are some of the behind the scenes images, and some of the dance.  The final images will be showcased during their spring recital at Parkside Playhouse in March.  Hope you enjoy!
