For my Spring Portfolio, I constructed a paper-mache dress/sculpture which made the model wearing it taller than normal. I envisioned it as a piece in a slightly surreal fashion-style shoot.
These first images are from the party when some very helpful friends and I made the dress while enjoying a sunny Spring afternoon. Thank y’all!
These are three digital shots taken while testing the lights and getting ready during the shoot.
Here are three digital outtakes of the amazing (and patient) model who wore the dress, Ms. Brittany Snider.
Finally, here is the diptych that was used for my portfolio. These were shot on medium format film and scanned here from negatives.
Thanks again to Brittany and also to the most excellent Walker Anderson for modeling and being an amazing assistant on the set!

This was such a creative and completely unique idea, Eric! It’s nice to see the behind-the-scenes photos and progression of your idea unfolding. It was very well-executed and one of the more original photos at portfolio. Excellent work, as always!
Thanks Melly Mel!
