Hey, gimme fiver' :-) Jamie Biver. Great conversationalist. Is a nice break to get a renter so invested in creating and experimenting with developing a creatively consistent look. Hope you find the look you're after (-: Let me know when you find the perfect portrait-lighting setup!
Arts & Ideas by William Fleming
Benozzo painted the fresco cycle of the Journey to the Magi that covers three walls of the chapel in the Medici Palace. A favorite subject for pomp and pageantry, Benezzo's talents were more than equal to their task. A sumptuously attired and caparisoned young Wise Man sits astride his splendid steed. Benezzo portrays three generations of the Medici family. From right to left, Piero de' Medici (in profile) appears at the head of the procession. Emblazoned on the lower part of the harness of his white horse is the motto 'Semper' (Forever), a part of the Medici coat of arms... (Page 248)
Yeah man, keep on Emblazoning!? :-)P
Ancient Egypt: Edited by David P. Silverman
Couples are frequently depicted in both two- and three-dimensional art. In many cases, the woman places her arm around her husband's shoulder or waist, and in the statues of the New Kingdom the gesture is often reciprocal, each partner embracing the other. Egyptian society was male-dominated, the frequency with which the elite women were depicted alongside their husbands and sons shows that they were recognized as playing an important role within society. (Page 83)
Well, so that's how they did it. Now you know what to do for your next Egyptian wedding photo shoot!
" . . . social pressure was used to enforce conformity to accepted norms of behavior in relationships between women and men."
I mean, now we know the norm, let's be fresh and un-normalize, when it's wise. Lol.
Best to ya, looking forward to your next rental with JB!
