Artist's Comments

Widow's Weeds
'Mourning clothes of a peculiar fashion, denoting her state.' Captain Francis Grose. Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue (1811).

"Weeds" refers not to spindly, undesirable plants, but rather comes from the old english word waed, simply meaning “garment.”
Still, I couldn't resist going out to shoot this amidst the foggy, dead rushes at the riverbank. It was just too apt. :)

Clever lines unread on clever napkins.
Holy shit, changeling photo!
Really, you look great. Both of these are fantastic, but that one on the left is intense as hell. You're fabulous.

Wow that dress is beautiful : )
lovely and awesome!
Beautiful as always!

Silly question, but as the photographer, do you put your camera on timer or have an assistant push the button? That's a lot of running back and forth if you're solo and use the timer! Sorry, it was just sort of an amusing image. :)
I love that dress! Its such a pretty color. Goes well with your hair! <3

I'm not insane. Your just a bit mad.
I drag someone with me, usually my significant other, to be the button pusher :P

Your work reminds me of Ergo Proxy. Do you know what that is?
