Glove Project Day 2

After Samantha, Lindsay came to try on the gloves. It is fun to see how different people see the same challenge in different ways. Lindsay came with a friend and the two of them came up with great ideas. It's fun to collaborate with others because each person will contribute ideas that inspire the others to think of new things.

If you feel inspired to try on the gloves, send me an email at dave@photo-edge.com.

Glove Project

I found a photo in a bridal magazine several months back that caught my attention. It was a bride from the back pulling on a long white glove up to her elbow. I started thinking about all the things you could do with a pair of gloves and eventually put thoughts to action. A trip to the mall to get gloves was discouraging. They told me that none of the stores sell them. I should have known that online was the best place to start. If you get inspired to get gloves, check out http://www.greatglovesonline.com/ and you will most likely find what you are looking for. Anyway, I found three pairs - white satin, black satin, and lace. Now, to find models. In choosing models, I tell them about the gloves and to think about what they make you feel. They are free to choose clothes and looks that express what they want.

My first model was Samantha. She loved the idea and even brought her own makeup artist. Here are a few of the images from her session.

This is too much fiun. I need to find more models.

Day One

Everything needs a beginning and this is mine. Each day is a gift from God. Waking up in the morning is not a promise or a guarantee. Therefore, when the sun rises, there are new opportunities and new adventures to be lived.

Each of us needs a creative outlet - something that we do just for fun, because we like doing it. For me, I love to do photography projects. Not jobs that I get paid for, not shooting someone's wedding, but projects that I do just for fun and creative exploration.

If you read this and think of fun ideas that someone should try, then let me know. It might be something that I would like to do too.

Come along and share my world.
