Photoshoot Adventures!

Photoshoots for Lost Cause Revival are always an interesting experience. I remember the first one I did was a blur of panicking and forgetting things before getting down to experimenting. I’ve since settled into my own groove and it is working thusfar.

Anyways, the most recent LCR photoshoot occurred Saturday, and it ended up quite successful (if I do say so myself). The weather in my area has been particular, so I was nervous that me and my lovely model Lydia would freeze our butts off like we did in December. Thankfully, the weather smiled upon us, and it ended up being pretty lovely in our downtown setting besides some pesky wind.

We set up shop in the shade for the most part, so Lydia maneuvered to stay toasty warm between shots.

This is Lydia’s second time modeling LCR creations, and I daresay she is pretty darn fabulous. She’s sweet, gorgeous, versatile (which is so helpful with LCR’s eclectic styles), and most importantly SUPER GOOFY.

We have too much fun. I swear half of the photos from Saturday look like this. We got distracted by passersby and dance music more than I care to admit.

Okay, now I should refocus and focus on the reason for the photoshoot in the first place. I’m so super excited about the Lost Cause Revival creations featured this time around.

I was able to recently delve deeper into steampunk creations with my fabulous antique watch parts. They were given to me by my now ex-boyfriend’s aunt whose father repaired watches back in the day. She didn’t know what to do with them, so they are mine now! Life is weird. Anywho, I can’t get over the artisan quality of the watch parts and the intricate little details.

This is my favorite watch part by far. I can't handle the beautiful patterns and mixed metal aspect.

I also experimented with some computer keys from the many used keyboards people have given me. These are quirky in the most fun geektastic way! I can’t wait to make more combinations.
