Finally, the most recent photoshoot I did with xbellanotte photography (although we do have one planned for this coming weekend *hint hint*) Not my most recent photoshoot since I just did one recently with Alex Leong, but this was the last time I worked with Isabella Tan.

This was a rather impromptu shoot. We wanted to head to the park to take some nice photos, but then it started pouring cats and dogs. But alas, art never stops for anyone, and hence we decided to shoot anyway. It was freezing, I was drenched and super cold despite Melissa being there to help me out once in a while with an umbrella. In less than 5 minutes, I was soaked to the bone and shivering like crazy. We got a couple of good shots, but 10 minutes in, my make up was almost completely washed off and my fake lashes had disappeared. Still, we persevered and continued on.

Despite the weather, this was SUCH a fun shoot. I wouldn't consider myself a wild child per say, but I couldn't resist climbing trees, eating leaves, rolling in the mud, dancing on the table (half on Bella's insistence, half out of my own want to go a little crazy). Bella had been doing a million different shoots between this one and our previous seven sins one. I didn't want to disappoint her hence why I pushed myself to create as many varied compositions as possible, all with Bella's patient guidance and wise council.

Let me just say, I love that girl.

There were so many photos from this shoot. So many that I liked, so I'm going to split this into two posts. This one, the first one, is me trying to act mischievous, as the title of the album suggests, like a nymph.

When I think nymph I think laughter, audacity, cheek. And that was what I was trying to portray.

So these first two were taken as soon as we got there, when my makeup was still holding out. Hence why I looked so clean and happy amongst the leaves. Don't be fooled though, it was FREEZING.



And then we moved to the tables:



 I tried playing the coquettish angle:
'This is my forest, and I own this world. Come play if you dare.'



And of course, what would 'fun' be without a little tree climbing and dancing?


The playing and fun didn't really need to be forced or acted out. I was having a lot of fun, despite the cold and bugs. The last photo was taken after the rain had subsided. I was asked to dance, and so I did. I did pirouettes, star-jumps, etc. Great great fun, a shoot I would never forget.

Once again, thank you Isabella Tan

Love,
Fyx
