"Fear is a darkroom where negatives develop." - Usman B. Asif


I wanted to do something crazy, something a little spooky, something more artsy. Dee's and my answer? a clown. I wanted these images to not be deemed "pretty" or "beautiful." I wanted these to explore movement, color, and disturbance. While most would say these photos are "creepy" and unlike my other work, i was actually quite fond of them, and thought they were successful in the fact i was able to achieve the experimentation i wanted and they didn't look awful. It was an enjoyable shoot, and Dee as a dancer, was able to get into character and create very different and enticing poses creating a very disturbing and spooky theme to what was already a very twisted photo shoot. I also really enjoyed working with a slower shutter speed and exploring the color and vibrance of red against black with some contrasting white.
