Hey, Hey, Blue Jay

1-hey-hey-blue-jay-sm

The Liaison Collaborative opens later today for their fourth year anniversary round. Spring is in abundance at this event, as is witnessed by this adorable bicycle pose prop, complete with a very happy little blue jay. From Luane’s World, it is a great decorative addition for your springtime garden, as well. The very cheerful dress from !gO! is totally feminine and so prettily detailed and the hair from NO.MATCH evokes a very perky, springy attitude.

I am also giving you another look at the *Birth* Freya skin for LeLutka mesh heads, coming to Skin Fair 2017. It is just a few days away, so if you haven’t yet joined the PGP Info Group, I highly recommend you do. You not only will receive demos from Skin Fair, but you will be given 12 hours early access to the event.

Cate

1-cate-sm

One of the most anticipated releases for Skin Fair 2017 is the new LeLutka mesh head, Cate. Well, here she is, and she is stunning!

This is a younger looking head (she even comes with braces), with beautiful, pouty lips and a much softer jawline than Simone. She looks gorgeous in the default Glam Affair skins, but I love this new release from [PXL]. Ava is a very versatile skin as it looks fabulous on both the Cate and Simone heads. I was wearing Simone with this applier when Cate arrived. I’m not sure which one I prefer it with. I’ll probably blog it with Simone later, in fact.

Skin Fair 2017 opens on March 10th, so get your Lindens ready. You’re going to spend a lot.

Two Sisters’ Views

I was working on a different photo of the Freya skin from *Birth* for Skin Fair 2017 and as I often do, I asked for an opinion. Since my sis, crankygit was online, I asked her. She is always brutally honest in her feedback and I trust her implicitly. So, when she told me, “sis, you can do better,” I stopped right where I was. I popped over to see her and she whisked me into her house, tossed some chain link fencing behind me and within moments, she showed me this…

Frickin’ awesome.

I hopped off the pose stand and while just hanging there in awe, I clicked off another shot. Different. Nice. It shows off the skin, which is absolutely stunning, and also a bit of mood. I have found that I tend to change up my style when I am doing photos for Skin Fair – straight shots instead of my usual style. I hope this one does the skin justice while allowing me to be true to who I am as a photographer.

The contouring of Freya is beautifully done and the eyes are just wow! So sleepy-sultry-sexy. I didn’t wear any other cosmetics; what you see are the natural eyes and lips that come with the skin. Of course, *Birth* has some wonderful cosmetics that I will try out with this skin, but for this shot, I wanted her to be just as she comes: beautiful and unadorned.

Cranky posted another version of her shot on her Flickr stream. Go see it here. I insist.

Two sisters. Two views.
