Set 3 in the series of photos from Medusa Salon, another four pictures for you to enjoy!

Medusa Salon, for all you OC people, is located in Huntington Beach and the ladies that work there are FANTASTIC.  They have hair, make up, nail, and waxing services.

The actual salon is full of fun and a relaxed atmosphere, hip music in the background and bright walls and styling everywhere – this photo was shot on location!

All the girls who work at Medusa are exceptionally creative and most had a hand in coming up with ideas for their photos, all of them delivered as models.

Of course, it just wouldn’t be a Cherry Fizz photo unless it had lots of eye popping colors (or, in other cases, a retro aesthetic.)

Like I promised, some more sexilicious photos – hair and makeup done by Medusa Salon. I think I might set up some photo shoots through their salon available to the general public, a hair/makeup/photo shoot special.

The best part about this was how guerrilla it was – I have two tiny little lights I use, and of course the surrounding area of the salon. But I managed to get SO many looks. I’m only about 1/2 through editing all of the photos.

So I showed up, used what I had available to me, and took some pictures, trying to create something fun for each person unique to their personality.

I don’t hide that I use photoshop.  I’ve been using photoshop for longer than I’ve been a photographer, and have taught myself what I know – but for me, these photos aren’t a portrayal of reality – that’s part of the fun!  Reality has it’s place, but it’s so boring.

I prefer something out of the extraordinary – out of the box, bright with colors (well, for the most part) – something that makes you realize how sparkly you are. Yes sparkly. Like those darned Twilight vampires. Which reminds me, vamp season IS upon us, and I do have a little thing for True Blood, mmmmm. Maybe I need to take some sexy photos, yes?
