Fire Dress - Eternal Beauties - Makeup By LuAndra Whitehust, Concept and Photography By Jeremy Mason McGraw

Eternal Beauties Magazine

In this project, Jeremy played with ideas of culture, prejudice, and perceptions of evil in a conceptual space removed from divisive political debates. Using vampires, demons, and other fictional immortal beings as a metaphor for foreignness, Jeremy worked with a team of models, artists, a leather armor maker and movie special effects makeup artists including Lu Andra Whitehurst and Laura Dandridge to craft images and concepts of these outsiders in the familiar editorial style of beauty and lifestyle magazines. The resulting images speak to the way we view other cultures through the lens of our own.

Food of 2 Michelin Star Chef Sven Wassmer at 7132 Silver - Professional Food Photography, Culinary Photographer, Restaurant Photos

Food Photography, Food Photographer, Restaurant Photographer

Professional food photography is about more than food: it is about the story that all of the elements that make up a photograph tell about that food. A great culinary photographer understands the way that composition, lighting, crockery, and background all come together, and how to guide these elements to tell a story for a specific purpose. The story that restaurant photos on a website should tell is different to the story that should be told in editorial food photography in a magazine. At Global Image Creation, we excel at telling all of these stories.
