Photographing for Carrie The Musical was a bloody mess. I mean literally. In a good way. 🙂
After shooting PRIMA’s Spamalot last year, it was great to be invited back to photograph for them again. After throwing some concepts around with director Drew, musical director Hayley, and Prima boss Stacie, we came up with a series of super-dramatic images featuring quite a bit of blood. Props to the cast, particularly lead Amelia Burton, for patience and tenacity with this shoot!
As always, when I’m shooting headshots, there’s a little bit of mucking around – it helps to loosen people up and have fun, and you get the best natural smiles after some good goofing around. Drew was the first up, and when asked for his best supermodel face, smashed it out of the park. Hayley did the same, and before long we had the entire cast doing their best OTT supermodel pose.
