#2 of 5 Edition 1/1

Artist - Sarah Lyndsay Photography

The top of Bastion Mountain in BC & the red dress

It was a stormy evening with conditions that would seem dull and off putting to many landscape photographers. I will photograph no matter the weather when I have a shot in mind. I crawled up to the top of this mountain in my small home town of Salmon Arm and was treated with these beautiful stormy views overlooking the famous Shuswap Lake.

I chose the red dress for this scene to contrast against the moody sky and cooler colour of the landscape. To add some drama to the sky I used a long exposure technique which creates the surreal streaks in the clouds. I did a few spins for the camera to create movement in my hair and dress. It started to pour buckets of rain shortly after this. Perfect timing and I walked away with a shot that I am quite pleased with.

My self-portraits typically involve a long exposure so I do have to take two images and blend them together. I take one shot of the scene without me in it and this is the long exposure part. Then I take a second shot with me in the scene and blend them together in photoshop.
A tripod is a must for these shots and I have an app on my phone that connects to my camera, which acts as a live view screen and remote to take the picture. This is very handy since I can see myself in the process and make sure I nail down the posing.

SOLD OUT

I come from a family of abuse. My dad. Physical, verbal and emotional. I watched in horror and anger how he treated my mom, who is truly a special lady. I remember when I was little, I would shut off my mind and escape in my dreams. This is called disconnecting. I often dreamt of a different family or I would have nightmares of something happening to my mom. There was this moment in grade 5 when my dad was so angry at me for something, he had me pinned on the ground and I can still picture his face shouting at me to this day.

This all came out in my adult life and I made many poor decisions in my late 20s. My mental health declined and I had no choice but to face these dragons. Forgiveness has happened with my family and I am in an AMAZING place now in my 30's.

Even though I’m a grown woman, these images represent that little girl who had many dreams of escaping to beautiful places in a dress.

Thank you for viewing my heart & passion.
