Baker Park - 5 Muses - Frederick, Maryland

I was so fortunate to be invited as a photographer to participate in a fun styled photoshoot, it was titled 5 Muses at Baker Park, in Frederick, Maryland.  It was planned and organized by Amanda Feeney.  The other photographers were Lynne Baker of Blue Box Photography and Tritorian Richardson.  The Muses were CE Suge, Lisa Irvine, Guzel Lenton, Maggie Shochet, Amanda Feeney.  The make-up artist was Erin Mabray.  The flower crowns were created by Meg at Form & Fire.

While we represented five muses at this event, there were nine muses in Greek mythology, the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne.  These beautiful goddesses provided inspiration to the arts, literature and science.  Each Muse brought their own unique talents to the shoot and it was truly a wonderful experience.  

These beauties were professional, so talented and wonderful to work with, and really had fun personalities.  Their sense of humor made for great laughs during this shoot.  The crowns were skillfully crafted, and the talent of the make-up artist helped make this a successful experience overall.  All of the photographers also worked very well together with posing, holding reflectors, and sharing great ideas.
