Photo Shoots

Out Takes (II)

August 27, 2013

All I can say is: oy vey!
It was quite a weekend running the very first official The Curvy Elle Pop-Up Shop. I feel like I’ve been dragged down the street by a car for about five blocks and then hit by a train. (Yes, that was a little bit of exaggeration, but add having a cold on top of everything. Ick.) 
I am excited to share a post recap of the pop-up shop later this week. For now, I am leaving you with another ‘out takes’ photo shoot my photo archives. This was one of my very first shoots I ever did.
I remember looking at these photos after they were taken, and being horrified at most of them. Cringing and cringing at every other photo. Now, looking back at them, I kind of feel like laughing at myself. What was I afraid of? Some of these were good. I was so critical of myself in the beginning!
So, here are some of the pictures (photo shoot originally from this post) that didn’t make it to the  blog the first time!

Out Takes

August 20, 2013

Since this is going to be quite a week with preparations for the *very first* The Curvy Elle Pop-Up Shop this coming Sunday, I have decided to forgo my usual photo shoots because of time and insanity restraints. I was playing with what I should do, so I started browsing my photo shoot archives. I realized there were a lot of great shots that I nixed in the past and have now seen in a different light with more appreciation. Thought I would share one of these finds with you.

This was a shoot in my dad’s living room, that I ended up not being satisfied with and re-shot at a different location (original post entitled “Hoot and a Holler“). The shoot I published took place last February out of doors originally. In these first shots, I really enjoyed seeing these mirror shots. 

Here’s to proving that sometimes your very own trash can become treasures!
