During fashion week in NYC this September Susan Woo debuted her second collection, Spring 2010. The following week we took to Space 523 in Brooklyn to shoot her new looks. This time around our goal was to top the success of last seasons lookbook and with able hands on deck, I think we did it. Following the shoot, I made 8×10 inch prints and hand painted the photographs. It’s a slight touch but I think it brings a really interesting layer to the work.
As a side note to my photo friends out there, at Space 523 there is an original stool from Irving Penn’s 1970s studio in Manhattan which we were able to use for the day! I am delighted to have it in one of the final prints above. Here are some behind the scene’s…

Stunning visual… What material did you use to paint? And by enlarging the size from 8×10 to commercial… would you print these or do the handpainting on the large scale too? Really appreciate its great effect. Gorgeous Work.
Hi Jlin, thank you for your kind words! The paint I used was a matte acrylic for the purpose of scanning the work back into the computer. I think it could certainly be scaled up, but it would definitely require a larger brush…
