KTDPP Series #2: WATER DANCE  
The following photographs are part of my KAT-TUN Discography Photo Project. As the title suggests, it's a little photography project I set for myself in which I'll be holding shoots with themes based on KAT-TUN songs!


Series #2: WATER DANCE
One of my favorites off of Break the Records. It's got this spooky, sensual vibe to it, and there is nothing in the world more fitting to represent such strange fusion, than a water nymph: majestic seductress of both sea and land, dancing and singing and luring you in, to show her, hold her, kiss her, use her, take her, need her, love her.




Show me to the sea of love.




Hold me until I’m broken.




Tell me naked as you are.




Kiss me until I melt.




Catch me in your sweet snare.




Stop me, key to my heart.




Leave me drowning in this evening.




Touch me, my heart creases.




Shake me, we’re getting soaked.




Take me to paradise.




Love me if it’s the truth.

























































「 I’m chased away by the sound of a siren
When I look back, it swallows me whole
There is no turning back 」




THE CREW!

I started counting so I could say "number whatever is my absolute favourite!" but there were too many, really, so I shall say they are all beyond lovely, and the model is gorgeous, and the eye make-up works extremely well. :D

OMG the photos are so pretty<3
I especially lovee the one you put as preview and the one where she stretch her hand out~

maybe it's just my love of anything blue but the pics really resemble the image well, looking like a water nymph and the blue glitters on the eyes

[info]kalypartemis on June 2nd, 2009 11:01 pm (UTC)
Very nice. I have to say, I like the last few better, with the washed out eyemakeup, but they're all very nice. One thing I have to say, however, is about the fake lashes and the eyebrows. I think they (the lashes) would have looked better if they had been fitted to her eye shape more on the inner corners, and if you're gonna extend eyeshadow up that much, especially something as dark as blue, you might have wanted to hide her eyebrows (Though, in some of the shots it look like you had?)

I don't want to come off as a douche anything, but it's just some constructive criticism, which is always good? ^^;

http://pics.livejournal.com/ionnesaysrawr/pic/000h26tq

I really like this one, because of the waterdroplets on her hair.
Ionne: ☆ homaki → troubled[info]ionnesaysrawr on June 3rd, 2009 04:50 am (UTC)
aa, no, i appreciate it! concrits are always more than welcome. someone was bound to point out the eyelash thing sooner or later anyway, haha. :D anyway, it's a long story, but basically: eyelashes were a bitch to put on. when we finally managed to get it to stick, we realized they didn't fit her eyes very well. we thought of taking them off so we could cut them but we were running out of glue, so we didn't. in the end we decided to just make them work somehow. the inner parts of the lashes were actually curved upwards to make her eyes look sad and pouty. :D

Aww, these are absolutely gorgeous/stunning.

I love what you did with 1582 too (:

Can't wait for the next one!

beautiful photos gorgeous gurl she looks like a water sprite.awesome concept love water dance even more now with this vivid picspam. are you gonna do all of the songs.? its so professionally done. love it.thanks for posting.
Ionne: ♡ jin → wins at life[info]ionnesaysrawr on June 3rd, 2009 04:59 am (UTC)
i'm glad these photographs seem to be pulling in more people to like the song. i absolutely adore it. people really need to listen to it more! D: i probably won't be doing all of their songs (since some would just be too damn hard to interpret [ie. RHODESIA LOLZ]) but, who knows, i just might when i grow bored enough.
fish in a bottle[info]silent_jing on June 3rd, 2009 12:06 am (UTC)
I thought 1, 4, 9 and 14 were pretty good. Her expression does bring out the mood of the lyrics.
Completely didn't expect the washing off of make-up, so that was a good one. :P She looked great even without the lashes, wet hair and all.
And I loved the concept of the whole photoshoot (well, and your project too)! Makes me want to go try things like that too... When I have the time, I guess. I haven't been taking photos lately but you make me want to grab a camera again. xD
Anyway, I'm glad you took up this project. Keep shooting! Will look forward to seeing them. ^_^

wow, they are really so beautiful. The model is gorgeous, a bit of childish, but also very feminine, sensual at the same time. I love this pic: http://pics.livejournal.com/ionnesaysrawr/pic/000gytk3 a little sad, mysterious and simly beautiful plus nice pose
and this: http://pics.livejournal.com/ionnesaysrawr/pic/000gpkat - seems VERY kattunish, so sensual, smexy, but subtle at the same time :)

Pictures with water drops are also <3333
