Lindsay Bergan’s environmental portrait with her Mach II moth sailboat for 1859 – Oregon’s Magazine. Publication for July 2012.
Three shots in three separate scenes, telling the same story within a narrative series. It tells the tale of a model of three eras of fashion: the 60s, 80s and modern. As a model, she’s on the journey of her career. Although she has it all – the beauty, the clothes, the style and money – she finds herself at a crossroads seeking more, but is subsequently slipping into a lifestyle she’s becoming all-too familiar with.

Tobacco-smoked meat; it’s what’s for dinner. This is my “still-life food” shot for an anti-smoking advertisement. Originally I sought to make the meat look like a heart hooked and strung-up over a smoking ashtray, but the meat just looks like meat. Next time, I’ll get a realistic-looking heart and blacken it a little more to show the ill-fated effects of smoking cigarettes.
Window light was the light source to camera left and an off-camera Canon 580EX II Speedlite bouncing off a silver reflector was the fill at camera right.
