Here a few of the photos I took of my sister Jill in my avant-garde style. I dressed her and did her makeup. The outfit didn't quite work out as well as I wanted it to but the photos still came out pretty good. I wish I could of done some more full body shots but this skirt was a pain. First it is really from the 1920's and it kept on ripping all over, second it didn't fit Jill. Jill is only about 5 foot 6 inches tall so it made her look to short. The shirt is BCBG and it would have worked fine if the skirt fit. I love the hat (August Accessories) and the shoes(Guess brand). This is the first shoot I did like this. It is fun and I will be working on them all year long. Please feel free to leave comments good or bad. I can handle it.

Avant-garde Images by Jewel
Avant-garde (pronounced /ɑvɑ̃ gɑʁd/)
Avant-garde represents a pushing of the boundaries of what is accepted as the norm or the status quo, primarily in the cultural realm. The notion of the existence of the avant-garde is considered by some to be a hallmark of modernism, as distinct from postmodernism. Postmodernism posits that the age of the constant pushing of boundaries is no longer with us and that avant-garde has little to no applicability in the age of Postmodern art.
I am starting a year long project to work on my portfolio for High Fashion Photography. This has always been something I have been very interested in. The photographs will go beyond the "norm" and will include many different locations, dramatic makeup, hair and clothing. I will be working with a makeup artist and hairdresser who also would like
build their portfolio.
I will need models. If you would like to be considered please forward a photograph of yourself and your height, weight, measurements and shoe size. You will receive a high resolution CD of all the photographs. You dont have to have experience but you have to feel comfortable in front of the camera. You also have to be willing to do just about anything that is asked of you. Please email jewelphoto@sbcglobal.net
