Shoes [can hlep] make the woman!

 

"Help make!",... this is meant to be a good thing, mind you.  To complete "the" look, the presentation of style and finesse.  To establish that degree of sophistication, to finish off any ensemble with an exclamation mark.

I say this as a positive statement on the topic, and admire the entire process.  It goes back to the days of really fine attention to detail, the 1920'2 and 30's  and has continued on each decade, ebbing and flowing as the style and footwear options have given the world so much to choose from.  If not for Carrie Bradshaw we might have missed the importance of such things, but thankfully this came into our lives, as well as Mr. Big.

I love a good shoe, I admire a great shoe, and I can only hope that a camera is in hand when I come across such gems as this. 

Karla came to my newly established home studio this past Saturday, and one thing she asked, "I have new shoes, so can you get them?"  If she truly knew me, that question would never have been asked, for of course.  I tried to find different ways to feature the foot gems, and this was amongst my favorites.  I still have the entire shoot of 335+ photos to post process, so other may emerge, but for now, this stands as the iconic symbol of great shoes.

 

So anyone out there with really great shoes, if you need photos, I am one that appreciates the subject matter, will treat them [and you of course] with the utmost of respect and dignity, and find the right manner in which to present them to the whole world, with you in them or not, your choice.  

 

 

No humans were harmed in the filming of this segment, legs were not cut off as some rumors have persisted.  Karla is alive and well!  The chair however was destroyed due to unforeseen circumstances deemed it necessary.  Thankfully there is no furniture law in my city, and indiscriminate destruction is allowed.  Services will be held later today at the fire pit.  Bring your own marsh mellows, chocolate and crackers.
