Another shot from a brand new body-paint series; the front of a full-body bio-organic design by tattoo artist Sean Boon. Model: Tanya O’Callaghan. Due to limited shooting space and lighting we had to do a lot of the shoot using a large mirror.

You can check out the full series and behind the scenes shots here and you can read all about the shoot here on the new Oss237.com Blog.

Shaun – Tattoo 1 – Hess Angel

oss237 — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 20:59:30 +0000

Another new tattoo portrait, this time Shaun’s back-piece (based on a Derek Hess design), inked by Sean Boon of the Vibe Studio, Mullingar. Shot on a 50mm lens (cheers Ken) in natural light, once again using selective desaturation to bring out the red (hopefully no offence to Sean for distorting his awesome work, I’m just trying to get to grips with photoshop!)

You’ll hopefully be able to see more of Shaun’s & Sean’s tattoo’s here very soon and I’ve already done several other shoots since this one but not all of them will appear here on the site so keep your eyes on this and you can read about this shoot here on my blog.

Do you want a piece of me?

In dreams she’s with me

oss237 — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 17:27:22 +0000

A concept I’ve had in my head for quite a while. I’d like to do a series of shots like this one. I’ve talked to several makeup artists about working on them with me.

A little adjustment to the levels and some colour modification on this one.
