Some things I’ve learned from this shoot…ġ. )Īs a whole it was a great day, and a lot of great photos were taken. Photo Credit to Jon for taking the enthusiastic photo of Christine and I. We were given various mystery shots of different drinks and after a lot of caffeine and laughs parted ways. I’ll use the ribbons again and may even include a few from this shoot with the book, but until I find a location and setup that I’m crazy in love with, don’t expect to see much in terms of The Red String of Fate.Īfter taking down all the ribbon and boxing up, we ventured to Starbucks where we chatted and joked around with our friend, Ian who works there. I had very quickly doodled an idea in photoshop a few weeks ago.įifteen minutes into the shoot I basically fell in love with the tall grasses of the field behind our ribbon setup and took photos there and by the creek instead. The overall concept that I had was that the ribbon was a wall of ribbon separating the two from each other. I was really frustrated with myself, especially since we spent 30 minutes of daylight setting up the ribbon only to have an unsatisfied vibe with with location and setup. Whether it was the location, or the ribbons, I don’t know what it was. Once the photo shoot was underway I found myself hesitating to direct Jon and Christine.

It took about 30 minutes to string the ribbons from a fallen tree that was alongside the creek and a field of tall grasses. I did a few test shots to figure out the lighting situation and the flash that I needed to use. The air-conditioner was kind enough to die the day before…so I was working in a store that was a balmy 82 degrees with little to no circulation. Christine and Jon met me at the store before I left work, and we drove to Tyler State Park to setup. I spent my afternoon texting back and forth to Christine and Jon about last minute hair and wardrobe preference while I was working at the local camera shop by my house. I felt that I was finally ready for a photo shoot based on the legend of The Red String of Fate. I was pleased with the abundance and various textures and patterns that I had managed to find. I spent the past few weeks gathering red ribbon at thrift stores and spent no more than $3.00 on roughly 20 rolls of red ribbon. Behind the Blog #1 - The Red String Field of Fate
