Studio + Creative = Oxymoron

Personally, I find the whole idea of being creative in a studio setting to be a total oxymoron.  With that in mind, it is still a skill I desire to have - a hurdle I must master.  I have all the equipment I need - the seamless paper, gigantic softbox and a great light, and now I even have a nice place to practice.  It is spring break - I even have a subject sitting around the house to work with.  I have managed to tear him away from Guitar Hero for a bit to play.  I have to say that it has been fun!  I really like these photos!  Only a few skittles got this kid to cooperate.  He is such a good boy!  And, a little photoshop magic even made these 'cool' in my humble opinion!

Just ignore the bed head!  We can't be perfect all the time.
