SUICIDE
date: Apr 25th, 2002
media: C-41 photo, marker
model: Loi McKinley



This one was an interesting one to shoot because it really creeped me out at the time, due to how real the setup looked. I had my friend Loi pose, and we set up the scene for a (fake) suicide in my bathroom, complete with Halloween fake blood and skin, and (in an unused shot), red food coloring in the bath water.

NOTE: Not to be a wet blanket or anything, but I've seen this picture floating around the internet, altered. Please respect my intellectual property, folks... Also, this work is not available for use as album packaging. If I decide to use the image for commercial purposes, it will be when I'm ready to do so.
