Melissa and the red dress

Melissa and the red dress. The Siren. The Diva. Daddy’s Little Girl. People are complex … and a photo shoot designed to celebrate them can be complex too. In the case of Melissa, who came to C1M on May 4th, her stunning red dress brought out all of the intricacies of this beautiful young woman. As we often do, we designed a custom set. This complimented Melissa’s dress and her unique facial features that amazingly meld an innocence and a sophistication harkening back to the roaring ‘20’s – complete with rag time music, flappers and cloche hats. When Melissa’s father showed up still in his Carhardt work pants her sophistication waned as she comfortably morphed back into Daddy’s Little Girl – and, of course, we though it best to capture that as well. These are the challenges … and this is the fun that inspired us to take to this profession. We hope that the results keep you coming back for more.
