This made my head hurt

Today I came across this amazingly talented and creative photographer. His name is Romain Laurent and he is from France.
As I looked through the pictures on his website I came across his series called "tilt". 
Each picture basically shows a model that stands somewhat upright in front of a tilted background with the position of her feet and everything totally in place.
Looking at these pictures really made my head hurt as I was trying to figure out HOW in the world he did that.
And I bent my head and checked out feet, dresses, shadows and it just made sense.
I really was close to getting up to see whether I could stand skew like that. I guess that would be something you´d really like to see, right?? :D 
Aaaaanyway, I couldn´t just settle with not knowing how he created the pictures so I started searching google.
It didn´t take me long to find what I was looking for.

Here is an example of one of his pictures:

And THIS is the link to the article in which his post processing tips and tricks are revealed.

Now I will go lean against a wall... :D

Being in front of the camera

A couple of days ago, my husband took a few pics of me so I´d have a decent profile pic for my facebook page.
I found it quite hard to look natural and relaxed on camera.
Is there any other photographer out there that feels the same way?
I figured that being in front of a camera every now and then is the perfect exercise for a photographer. That way he or she will not forget how clients feel when they are standing in front of the camera.
Especially without a counterpart to interact with, looking natural and not posed can be hard.
We ended up listening to a comedy CD whild Danny took pics of me bursting into laughter! :D
Maybe that does the trick and I should take one to every shoot I go to? I´ll give it a thought.

Here are some more pics, besides the one I posted in yesterdays post.
