Happy hump day! I have a fun surprise today for you, luvs. I hope it will make your Wednesday even brighter. I have paired up with Suzette Saenz on Flickr for a collab. I decided on a theme of "On Wednesday We Wear Pink". I met Suzette while taking photos at Dean Studios and we got into chatting and definitely hit it off! I found her to be very sweet indeed.
The making of "On Wednesdays We Wear Pink"
I took a look at Suz's Flickr page to get an idea of her style and look and I thought of doing a Mean Girls theme with her. Not that she's mean. haha, but I thought the theme would be fun to do with her. I asked Suzette if there is a particular store she liked shopping and she pointed me to a shop called Spoiled. Funny enough, I already have some pieces from this store and most likely picked up some items here during the weekend sales event. The first outfit I saw was their new UWU collection which was perfect for the theme we are doing. I grabbed the Velour Bunny Hoodie, the Mini Crop Top, and Booty Shorts, in Bubble Gum pink, of course. Suz already had an outfit in mind from Spoiled as well and I was very pleased with the choices we made together.
During our photo shoot, we used a pre-made backdrop that had some built-in poses. If you are new to taking photos in Second Life, then you will most likely come into the problem of having to adjust your pose. This takes some time and depending on what viewer you are using, some have built-in pose adjusters, like the Black Dragon viewer. I noticed though that Suz was moving her head in a pose very quickly and precisely. She was using a LeLUTKA Axis HUD Face which helped her move her head pose quicker and can give it full emotions. If you do a lot of photography in SL, I highly recommend this gadget.
Get To Know Suzette
Suzette is a fellow Arizonian and has been playing Second Life on and off for 15 years. A friend of hers told her about the game and she started to hang out and chat with people. Her chat turned into exploring the game and then into putting outfits together and started modeling them for her Flickr. I asked Suz about her process of making her photos. "I try to make nice cropping and angles usually a little more close up than most, kinda like modeling and the different scenery and backdrops, sometimes at studios but mostly at different sims. But I don't use Photoshop. Just Firestorm lighting." she says. When not taking photos, she prefers going to beaches, dancing, and exploring, but she does love to chat and meet people. We talked randomly about food and I found out that her favorites are pancakes. ;) I totally concur! For shopping, she likes to go to Spoiled, Candy Doll, Doux, Blueberry, Cynful, Kaithleen's and Lunar to name a few. For events, she goes to a lot of them, but her favorite is Level, Kinky, Fameshed, Cosmopolitan, and Dubai. I asked her if there is something about her she wants people to know. "Just to be nice and treat people the way you would want to be treated." What a sweetheart. <3
