November main project announcement! [Ciri, classic game version]

Hello my Sweethearts!
Time to break the silence and finally announce, what will be our main goal for November!
As was teased many times, I'm very happy to present you our Ciri photoshoot from beloved third iteration of Witcher game series. I promised in September, that you'll see this project until the end of the year.
We worked hard to make it happen and it was really important for me. It really bothered me this year, that I couldn't kept my promises to be earlier, faster and to certain date. At least this promise, to show you our Ciri until 2020, I'll keep. )
On other hand all these, taught me to be realistic and work until I, myseld, will be satisfyed. Pretty selfish conclusion, hehe )

Anyway, for now, these are few shots from the backstage. More interesting photos from it, I'll share in one of my next posts. Along with the first look on final vision of our Ciri!

Previously, in one of my posts and messages, I talked about one moment of preparations to this photoshoot, that we really wanted, but it didn't happen.
I really wanted to make photoshoot with Ciri on hourse. Tao worked very hard to make it happen, searched for the best, negotiated with different places, but we faced with same answer: "We don't want our hourses to be assosiated with vulgarity and any dirtiness like that".
First of all, it was really offensive to hear words like that in first place, without even bothering to look thru our works. "Before judging us, please look at our portfolio. - Not needed"
Second, I really don't know, how people will find out, that specific hourse was in our project, if we don't promote ourselves as photographers in our city, and how it'll make the animal marked badly.
Our second photographer and model both had experience in riding on hourses, so there won't be any difficulties in re-learning.
Remembering all these make me angry all the time! What do you think about it? Is it really proper reason to decline our request for the photoshoot? Even so we were ready to pay as much as we could, even if it would affect our future projects.

Bad and unfair things happen time to time, but we need to be stronger and see only good. At least we didn't freeze shooting outside almost all day. )

Hope you are excited as I am!
Have a great day!
