PHOTOGRAPHY BRAINSTORMING

[ASSOCIATED PHOTOS BELOW ARE SIMPLY FOR INSPIRATION, NOT STRICT GUIDELINES.]

Night Shoots

1. Night Ritual: Model dressed in leather and/or other black clothing, long, wild hair emerging from the forest. You see chains at her feet as she has broken the bond imposed on her by a faux religious-controlled society, chains that once kept her (and others like her) separated from nature. Now, the ties have been broken. Our minds are open. Powerful forces are rising from nature and rebuilding the bond between man and tree, and destroying the bond between humanity and false reality. Some shots of being covered slightly by pine branches while holding black candles for minimal light. In darkness, she comes to life and is recharged with a vengeance from nature.

2. Burial Ground: Model dressed in leather jacket or a black distressed tank top with black jeans, heavy duty boots, carrying a shovel (or perhaps shovels of various sizes in different forms). For centuries, the planet has been digging its own grave thanks to a distracted, detached society. We as human beings, as naturally empowered spirits have been buried alive by debt, war, disease, and destruction that was invited into our lives by the government that was supposed to protect us. We have been told to bury our dreams and any ideas of peace, and over the years, have buried too many due to war. Now, we are preparing a special grave for a dying era. The Goddess will oversee the death of perverted values, the demise of a greed and sickness that has been nourished and kept alive by corrupt society for ages.

3. A New Breed of Power: Model(s) dressed in all black, long-sleeved shirts, leather pants & boots, black gloves, animal masks. Photoshoot will start with images of shadowy figures crouching and emerging from the dark at a distance. For too long, society has attempted to diffuse and tame the power of women in society. Through legislation, religion, and media, we have been told that our purpose is simply to procreate or too stand around and look pretty. By Christianity, our duty is to produce children, yet any other aspects of our sexuality are shamed and punishable. We are here to tell you that you're dead fucking wrong. It was from female power that the world originated, and it is female power that keeps natural balance and logic intact. Photoshoot then continues to more clearly define the animalistic models, lit by candlelight or natural light at dusk. The world will now experience the unabridged power of women.

4. Women of the New World: Concept revolves around the aftershock of today's world destroying itself. Models dressed in black, badass gear like spears or guns. Props may also include gasmasks in certain shots. The political and religious elites finally failed humanity, and allowed the earth to collapse. They've destroyed the environment, they have tampered too heavily with natural sex, and they drove a wedge between humans and natural reality. They ruined their chance to rule. Now, it's our turn. In their world, women barely had a place or even a voice. (Post- Apocalyptic setting; construction zone, etc.) This is the dawn of a new era- one controlled by the power of the Goddess. Women of the new world fear nothing, and face everything. They will bow at our feet and beg us for mercy, but it is too damn late for apologies. The Earth may forgive you, but we don't.

5. From Darkness We Rise: This should be shot at night, with model wearing all black, including dark eye makeup. Lit by either large candles or a lantern, the model will be shot at mysterious angles emanating from behind trees deep in the forest. From beginning to end, the concept would describe the emergence of powerful figures from the ancient world - who, from the shadows, have been watching the crimes of religious men for centuries - and their transition into replacing the so-called "leaders" of today. The series of shots would start as mysterious and ominous in reference to the future to come, and progress into power shots of the goddess. Weapons such as machetes or swords could be used as props.

6. Women of the New World (Alternate Concept): This would be more of a collective project, something that could be continuously built upon. It would be an entire page featuring various photos of strong women including Jessica, Ruby & myself (and any other models we can connect with) interspersed with commentary as well as photos and music videos from strong female voices in metal. Perhaps, even, each different model could tell a different story of power for more variety. The overall theme is a demonstration of what natural female power looks like, and how it is a demanding force in today's world. Men in power have had enough time to completely destroy society in many ways, and these women are the voice of a new future, one where gender doesn't define your abilities or your destiny. Charged by the power of ancient goddesses, these women are the answer the world has been waiting for. The religious right attempted to keep women silent because they knew we were capable of realizing the truth! There is nowhere else for truth to hide, now. Photos of all UWW models should feature the use of firearms to go with the theme. Dressed in usual attire, preferably set in a forest area.

7. Wild Huntress: This set would feature the model in a more primitive fashion, should be dressed in black pants and black or white tank so as to blend in better with nature. This set would explore the two facets of a strong woman - her animalistic side, and the side in which she is the hunter. Some photos would feature the model shot wearing one of the animal masks, others would feature her maneuvering through the forest with the spear or another hunting weapon. Overall, the photos would tell a story of the raw animal instincts that each woman is born with that cannot be hidden or changed by society, together with her ability to hunt her prey and defend herself in a world where nature is out of balance.
