Danny's Photoshoot Meme


Write to me if you'd like to know how I would like to photograph you. Don't tell me how you'd like to be photographed, it's my job to come up with something for you.

All your comments will be screened, so people will only see my replies to you. I will unscreen your original request only if you ask me to after I have replied.

Disclaimer time - I may need you to point me towards a recent photo of yourself since my memory for people's faces/bodies is often crap. Be warned, you may find the way I'd like to photograph you ridiculous, insulting, boring, obvious, exploitative, confronting, confusing, completely off the mark of how you see yourself, or completely uncreative. Worse still, I may not be able to think of anything for you. If I can't think of anything for you though, it probably means I just need to chat with you more, to spark some ideas.

Either that you or have no discernable personality.

Yes, I am mean. Tough it out, you bastards!

I can't remember if I replied to this or not!

You can unscreen me. :)

You hadn't, but now that you have...

Oh God, so many ideas!

Actually, the Kray Brothers thing would be so awesome with you. But first preference, and yes, it's old and been done, but I'd love to do a whole big run of shots of you as the Tooth Fairy! Problem is, people would think we were ripping off the Tooth Fairy from Supernatural, but I don't care. We know the truth!

It'd actually be easy to get a really nice portait of you. You have a great face. But at the same time, you do extreme so very well, it's just too damned tempting to run with it. So...

Giant Scotty sitting and chatting with Godzilla over a ruined Tokyo. I have someone else this would suit also, but would work well with you.

Naked Scotty, in a tunnel somewhere, covered in blood and gore, holding his dolly out to the camera.

Actually, naked Scotty all bedraggled looking into the mirror, and behind his reflection is suited, professional looking Scott. So many possible expressions for pro-Scott - amusement, a cheer-the-hell-up look, disdain...

Oh! Perfect! Close shot of you, deadly serious, deep in thought, looking into the middle distance as you try to ignore the distractions. Around you, all different versions of yourself. Angry, amused, nervous, disappointed, delighted, etc. and all of them yammering away at you.

Now if only we had someone who had the photoshop skills... :P
