Inspiration from the Bazaar

Please forgive my poor play on words but its not far off. As I was preparing to photograph my sister, Marianne, I stumbled across this image of Lady Gaga that was shot for a spread in Harpers Bazaar.

Lady Gaga in simplistic beauty. Take a look at the article for other really beautiful shots from her photoshoot.

She's beautiful, isn't she? "Health, happiness, love—these are the things that are at the heart of a great lady, I think. That's the kind of lady I want to be." —Lady Gaga Every women deserves a portrait that she loves and I so wanted to create one like this for my sister.

I love warm black and whites. And look at her freckles! I promise those are not painted on. Thats 100% her.

And here's color because sometimes I just can't choose a favorite!

Marianne and I loved this hat so much! And just so you know, this hat waits for others to wear her as a part of my studio wardrobe that is open to all of my clients. Every woman loves to play dress up.

Take a look at those eyes.

Get a hold of me so you can come and look through my studio wardrobe. I'll help you style your whole shoot. We'll create something beautiful. Something memorable. Something a little Bazaar. But most importantly, I'll create for you something you love. Love, Melinda
