it won't do, originally uploaded by avalilly.

Since I was busytimes last weekend, I didn't have time to do a valentine's day-esque photo, so I just did it this week instead! I sort of wanted the cinnamon heart to be a little bit more prominent, but I think I kind of like how small it is. It's like a secret heart. While processing, all I could think of was this song:

barbell boy

As previously mentioned HERE, I worked on a film written and directed by Taylor Bateman in February as the Production Designer. I got to design and build my first set in the film studio at York University. It's meant to be an imaginative/creative teenage boy's bedroom. It was exhausting, but a lot of fun to build! I was sooo happy to see it once it had been properly dressed and the actors and crew came in to shoot.

Here's some random stills from the production:













I haven't seen a finished version of the film yet, but it'll be screening sometime near the end of this month. Can't wait to see it! :)

Last week's photo. I was busybusy times on set, so I just snapped this really quick at lunch time since I didn't have time to do a planned photoshoot of any kind.

'Tis the set I designed and built in the sound stage at York! I now want tinfoil stars and christmas lights everywhere in my life.

I'll upload a selection of production stills once I catch up on all the work I've been neglecting to do in liu of this film~

This week's image. Didn't turn out quite how I wanted, but I atleast got the pose as close as I could, so there's that.

I'm not terribly fussy on the texture, but the photo needed something else seeing as my reflector skillz didn't work out so well this time. Overall, I'm happy with it, but there's always something I wish I spent more time on.


I'm building my first film set this week! Super hoping everything works out with it and that it's magical~

astrea campbell-cobb

The lovely Astrea recently asked me to do some headshots for her. She needed to update her photos as she shaved off her long locks back in Novemeber 2009 as a part of a really brave project for school dealing with trying something new that scares you. And what do you know, she still looks amazing!



She's so much fun to work with! I'm putting together a series of red lipstick photos that she also participated in, so keep an eye out for that in the future.

Googly eyes! (Please follow the image link to Flickr to see 3 more photos from this shoot.)

I couldn't really decide which one I wanted to make my official submission for my 52 weeks project, but this one had the sharpest focus overall. The one with the silly face is much more fitting for the makeup though. Ah well!

The best part was shaking my head and hearing all the googly parts google around. :'D
