Photoproject – Marilyn Monroe
Posted in Photography on May 18th, 2011 by Peter van Arkel
I have thought about this for a while, since I’m a real fan of Marilyn Monroe. Do I really want to try this and risk screwing up, or do I just leave the project be and risk getting no amazing photos?
I decided a while ago that I wanted to continue down this road anyway and that I was going to search for model(s) and preferably also a stylist for good measure, so that’s why I’m posting this for more exposure.
The project is trying to recreate some of the amazing work of Sam Shaw, one of the photographers who worked closely with Marilyn Monroe. In this post are a few examples of his work, to give you a bit of an idea. I’m searching for models that could look like Marilyn and a hopefully also a stylist that can accompany us.
Please know that this is a personal project and that I can’t pay anyone for it except travel expenses, lunch and all other costs that need to be made.
Reactions can be done by either commenting on this post with your emailaddress attached, by PMing me on facebook or twitter.
