Danny's Photoshoot Meme

[dalekboy]

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 think you'd make an awesome harlequin figure. One side of the face red, the other black, with opposing red and black make-up highlighting the mouth and eyes. At least that's a gut reaction.

You're an interesting one because on one hand you've got a beautifully compassionate and expressive face, which it would be easy to work with. So naturally I'm leaning towards weird, harsh, broad looks where that's hidden or hinted at behind a facade.

And actually, you have a good body too. No idea how I'd use it, frame it, or anything, but you're one of the few guys I know with a body that lends itself to nice stylistic nude work. Or at least seems to.
