Detroit Michigan Modeling Portfolio Photography by Mary DuPrie I’ve shot Karolina quite a bit over the last couple of years.  She came my way via comp card shoot.  She’s so sweet and so much fun she’s my go to girl when I think of testing.  What’s nice is she never seems bothered when I keep [...]

Testing with Karolina from mary duprie on Vimeo. Detroit Michigan Commercial Model Photography by Mary DuPrie I’m still not understanding why I’m cutting Karolina’s head off?  I’ve put the safety zone/margins on my video screen, they had two to choose from 4:3 aspect ratio and 90%.  I’m not sure which is the right one.  Perhaps [...]

Detroit Michigan Lingerie Photographers Mary DuPrie I haven’t shot Lorena in forever.  It was fun to spend the day with her, she’s always a help during testing.  It’s funny seeing her move things around in her lingerie!
