This was the first picture of the calendar I shot. We gave it a metallic makeup to match the background. We shot against a plain wooden background and then made it look like a metal sheet on photoshop. It looks like she's coming out of the background.

Her makeup and hair took about two hours. We added gold hair mascara and streaks to her hair. The shoot did not take long because she is a fabulous model. I've shot her from her modeling days. We achieved the image in about 10 minutes.

We had loud music in the background, and she just moved to it.

Lara is very professional, hard working and accessible. She featured in the last two calendars.

The red room picture with her was interesting. The shot was time consuming because the red room was not how I imagined it. So it took a while to conceive the shot. But Lara did not mind waiting, even though she was travelling that night.

She's looking better now. She always carries clothes well. She's very versatile. She can carry off Indian, Western and sexy clothes well.
