Teach Me Tiger - Cindy
🕑 Added 2017-05-05 00:17:16 +0000 UTCI think most people interested in photographing people use animal masks at some point (and often times this exact brand of animal masks - you can see the same rabbit, bear, and tiger masks in SO many photos across the net), but for me, this was just a first solution to a problem inherent in shooting underwater - MOST people's faces just look odd underwater. I haven't figured out what the combination of characteristics is that might cause a face to look great or strange underwater though, so to be safe I picked up a few masks, and brought them to the pool with me for all my shoots and encouraged my friends to pick an animal they related to most.
Cindy really just loved the idea of being masked (maybe she didn't want to show her face too much in her first and only nude shoot, although that fear melted away as well as future posts will reveal), and worked with 3 different animals throughout the 4 hour shoot.
These tiger ones are funny to me though - they have a different character to the lion or fox images, more of a humorous tinge.
