Alter Ego Photography was something that came to my attention a few years back when the the Housewives did a shoot with the famous Derrick Blanks. I had never attempted it but after working with with Toni Marchino for the Nerd vs Popular chic, the alter ego photo request kept coming.
For this alter-go shoot I used one of the custom Barbie boxes and model Franche’ portrayed an intermediating almost gothic barbie with the bat and pvc attire in one look. The opposing ego was a soft and terrified barbie that appeared cornered in a confrontation.
Portray contrasting personas complete with facial reaction, attire and body language is what I need and Franche did a great job at giving me all three. If you have an alter ego concept that you would like to bring to life, please contact us. Todd Youngblood photography studio is located in Charlotte NC in the small Noda arts district.
