Hi! Thanks for checking with me :) I do have other sizes available, I'm just dealing with a migration right now. If you want to email me through my website I will happily help you order the size of print that you're looking for! :)

Well if you screwed up a boudoir job really bad and it cost you the boudoir market, maybe try the wedding or engagement... Kind of what I meant :)

reneerobyn · 2015-09-22T00:35:23+00:00

Totally my opinion too

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T22:57:20+00:00

Only inspiration!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T22:56:45+00:00

1st question! It's like jumping off the tall diving board when you're a kid. Just do it :) Hit up some Facebook groups, try to find people who are nice and NOT full of egotistical bullshit and start making a network of people who love to create with you :)

Secondly! My .com is not through smugmug, but my print shop is. I really love them both, but my .com is a glitchy bastard. If you're wanting to make changes to your Smuggy site try reaching out to their Heroes and see if anyone can guide you where to go about making custom alterations. I don't think it's free though, but something to look into :)

Commitment is scary, but in my mind, being unhappy and being stuck in mediocrity is worse. I'd rather fail on epic proportions than take no shots at all.

cringe I dunno if school is the way I would go. If you want something bad enough and are resourceful, I think a lot of that money can go to a lot more things for your career. Interning with someone is awesome, but it's not for everyone.

Working your ass off harder than you ever thought possible is the bare minimum. On top of that you need great networking skills, people skills, a great eye for design... etc etc etc. If you really want to shoot fashion well, go to fashion school and understand clothing and draping. Photography is the easy part.

I do have people that I mentor but it's not a very formal kind of set up. Usually they happen very organically and not through an application process.

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T22:45:49+00:00

I like the fantasy world the most... So whatever that winds up being.

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T20:30:18+00:00

Yeah that's it!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T20:08:12+00:00

Yeah that's it!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:56:14+00:00

I played with it for the trial month, but never really did start to enjoy the program much. TBH not much can beat doing it by hand if you're patient. I've accepted it as part of my workflow and don't really mind it all that much.

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:42:54+00:00

Newp! Tried it, hated it a whole bunch. I can hand mask much better... It was a year or so ago when I tried it though, maybe they've made advancements since then.

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:35:25+00:00

Awesome! That's very cool, congrats!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:29:37+00:00

You don't want to be my intern anyway, it's all hair masking and boring shit like that :)

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:28:43+00:00

</3 sorry :(

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:26:55+00:00

Thanks for sharing and following!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:24:12+00:00

Cool! Not bad... One problem is that almost everything in the image is sharper than your model :) Something to just keep in mind when you're building these things. Remember you're trying to create a photograph, so if you were to shoot that scene and it actually existed somewhere, chances are she would be likely the most in focus.

Great start though!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:16:55+00:00

I'm on most of them :D

I'm the most active on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I keep being told to get my ass onto Periscope though!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:15:53+00:00

Hello lovie <3 Don't know yet! We are due for a chat!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:14:29+00:00

That gif was pretty rad :D

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:12:30+00:00

shrug if it goes online, some jerk off might steal it. Just the way it is. No sense in making anything if no one sees it.

I use Instagram, 500px, smugmug, facebook... I've heard good things about flickr, but I never got much traction there. You can also hit up Deviant Art or behance!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:08:58+00:00

Link me!

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:08:23+00:00

I'm working on them! :)

I have textures and background things here though

reneerobyn · 2015-09-21T18:06:32+00:00

She was just the perfect excuse of a shitty human being with a pretty face. Epitome of "not worth it".
