Old photoshoot

These pictures were taken by various photographers at the annual Summer Darkness festival (Utrecht, the Netherlands) in 2011:

Old photoshoot

This photoshoot was held in 2011. I was asked to pose wearing beautiful handmade chokers, sold at Dominia Shop. The shoot was held both outside in the freezing cold, as well as inside a tropical greenhouse! This was the result:

 My hair was made red here in Photoshop :)

Old photoshoot

I like to regularly model for gothic and fantasy themed (amateur) photoshoots. Usually in Victorian style and in a  very atmospheric place. I love the dark romantic image that is created in the photographs and of course it's simply a lot of fun to do! Lately I haven't had much going on except for the shoot at the beach (see this post), but I have plenty of material to show from past photoshoots. Maybe I should make this a monthly theme-post on my blog!

These photographs are from 2010 and were shot at an old estate close to where I live:

As you may have spotted, there were two different photographers that day! 

Two more pictures!

I received two more pictures of my recent Victorian photoshoot! One from each photographer. I love how they are so different!

Yesterday's photoshoot: behind the scenes

Yesterday I spent many hours posing for a Victorian photoshoot. It was a lot of fun, but I was incredibly tired afterwards. It takes up so much energy to concentrate on your body and facial expression all the time. The photoshoot was held in Katwijk, at the beach and dunes. Although it wasn't particularly cold outside, the strong wind chilled us to the bone! I do believe the results will be nice though, from what I've seen on the cameras of the two (amateur) photographers. It will probably take weeks before I'll have more results, because of image retouching. But I can show you some behind-the-scenes photographs that my boyfriend took:

Joyce (from Beauty & Metal) and her boyfriend (both standing on the left) came to watch. I think I kind of look like

 a ghost here, haha.

 My boyfriend, while holding the reflection screen for us, made a picture of people cycling and walking by. They either stared wide-eyed or took pictures. :) Some people asked questions (silly ones, but they 

meant well).
