I didn't want bubbles, but a bath that was still, while leaving something to the imagination. The trick to accomplish this was to fill the tub with a mixture of vitamin D milk and warm water. Jamie was a sport to do a photo shoot in the tub and was open to just about everything I suggested.
A week later I was able to photograph artist and friend, Traci in her bath. This time, I took a photo of her reflection from the bathroom mirror while I was standing on the toilet angling the camera down towards the cabinet mirror. I chose to have it empty with her in her white robe.
After this, my friend Carrie was also open for a shoot. I wanted it to be a little different this time. Once I asked her to submerge in her head in the water, I noticed that her makeup easily washed away in the water and smudged on her face. To make it a more dramatic effect, I had her apply more eye liner and slowly submerge in the water with her mouth closed and then again with it open.
These photographs are the results from these shoots.
A big thank you to my friends for trusting me and being open to play around with this idea.
