The Mermaid photoshoot is up on Indigo's Blog! Ill be posting more photos on firefly-path.net later.

As much as I love the Disney version, the original Hans Christian Anderson tale of the Little Mermaid has always struck a cord in me. For those of you who have not read it the prince ends up marring a princess from a neighboring kingdom. The little mermaids' heart breaks and she turns to sea foam.

I wanted to shoot a few of those scenes. The mermaid saves the prince from a sinking ship and watches over him for a while on the shore. Before he fully conscience and aware of what has happened a young woman from the temple runs down to the beach to find the prince. The little mermaid hides from the temple girl and watches her carry him away.

I wanted there to be a stark contrast between Brittney (Temple/Princess) and Vanessa (Mermaid). Everything about the mermaid is unearthly like her scaly shimmery skin and her clothing made of kelp. In contrast Brittney has a angelic bright face like an angel in the prince's eyes who has come to save him.

I wanted to thank everyone who made this happen! Vanessa, Brittney , and Paul you guys go far beyond anything I could ever ask for from my models! Thank you for getting soaking cold and wet for me! Diana who supplied Brittney's costume and make-up for both Brit and Paul, they looked perfect! Dave for the spectacular lighting and of course Indigo for taking photos of my dreams <3
