Empirical Photographic Arts

Gigliola Tavernese is a recent addition to the creative team at Primal Roar.

Although her master trade is makeup artistry, creativity radiates from this young entrepeneur. A mother of two young children, Gigliola still finds time to create one of a kind hairpieces and is constantly developing her skills as a makeup artist. As one of the only accredited airbrush makeup artists in the area she brings a unique flare to the eclectic mix at Primal Roar. Call her for a one-on-one session at 519-720-0443. She is also available for group parties and events.

If you live in the area and haven’t visited Primal Roar yet….what are you waiting for! They are located at 73 Brant Ave. in Brantford Ontario.

I visited Gigliolas official opening at Primal Roar a few weeks ago. Below is a glimpse of the treasures you will find at Primal Roar.

Did this really cool shoot a while back and this is the result. Andrea has never modeled before…seriously never! You will definately see her again, we’re addicted! If your wondering who the Dude is, that’s Desmond, Andreas boyfriend that hired us to give Andrea the model experience! Thanks Des!

Sunday I trashed a bride, not the dress!
I met Lisa and Murray in Port Dover for an engagement shoot. All went well until Lisa fell like a sack of Potatoes onto some serious chunks of metal in a marine scrapyard! She did not even bounce!  Lisa trooped on to finish the shoot and after a beer in their garage, Murray dutifully drove her to the E-MERGE room. Murray, the cheecky bugger that he is said that that is what happens when D’Arcy shoots. Yea, well, no pain, no gain!   All is well, just a pretty good bruise on the elbow. Most of the shoot is from before the “fall”. Cheers guys!

The images below dictate how much I am looking forward to a change in climate right now! Winter’s great…but come on already!

Wow! Things are changing at Empirical.

We have moved recently and are enjoying the luxuries of a huge yard. The garden is almost ready to be planted so make sure you stop by in a couple of months to pick up some vegies!

For all of you that have experience the wonderful water features at the old studio (LEAKS!), you can imagine our excitement after the first rainfall when we didn’t have to run for the mop!! All is well, we are looking forward to having our new space ready in June.  In the meantime, we are available by appointment as usual and look forward to seeing everyone soon.

The kitchen at the old studio just before packing it up. We will have updates as we begin the new studio.
