About PORTFOLIO
Dear artists and dreamers, It was a confused and excited thing when it came to prepare a new edition for Portfolio. I was thinking what to write while I heard the song ‘Bad Blood’ from Taylor Swift, my mind became so relax and enjoy my time to think about artists who inspired this second edition. I would like to thanks all bloggers and artists that had been joined, Ashley, Diamantine, Eve Kazan, Gac Akina, Laura, Less, Loverdag, Pinkrayne, Vanleen, and Zaos. Without your interest and awesome pictures, we won’t release our great second issue. Also thx to Julie Hastings who helped me with sorting pictures for our second cover. In the future, we hope we can add some professional photographers to be our board of art professional. Still put that on our desk, for now. The choice for the cover image went to Diamantine. Love her picture with an imaginary feel from her picture titled ‘Pearl’. You also can find her feeling about her art and her experience through second life’s lens by her interview in this issue. I was very happy too that my friend Mishell Ares joined our team. He was a Graphic Design Award winner for a design competition back then. His graphic design can be seen at this issue. Also, we hope to expand more in our projects. If it fixed, surely we will let our readers know. I hope our readers will enjoy and happy with this month issue. We tried to do it with an happy heart. Because to feel happiness you need to do it happily <3 Elleonna Seraphine A dreamer, Editor in chief

An Interview.......... Elleonna : Where do you come from? I’m Italian. Elleonna: How long you have been working in photography in sl (and rl if you have)? I’m blogger since January 2013 but it is only in this last year I’ve improved a lot in photography. Elleonna : Do you have experience in RL photography too? I haven’t any experience in rl photography. Elleonna : What are your experiences in sl photography? The blog I write give me an opportunity to develop my passion in photography. Elleonna: How do you learn sl photography? I learn sl photography as an autodidact. Elleonna : What things that inspired you in taking pictures? There isn’t something in particular that inspires me a picture. Usually are fashion accessories to give me an idea, sometimes it is the desire to impress a feeling.
with Diamantine Elleonna : What is your photography style? I do not have a definite style. If I just had to define myself, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d call myself a fashion photographer. Elleonna : What is essential things that always be in your pictures? In my photo the good taste never lacks further in all my photos are always present some of the beautiful gifts offered by various creators in sl. Elleonna : Do you like studio work or outdoor? And why? Sometimes beautiful sl landscapes inspired me very interesting scenes, sometimes I prefer to work in the studio and re-create the images using photoshop. Elleonna: If you like outdoor, how can you find a place that good for your photo? I find beautiful land to photograph through my travels or suggestions of friends Elleonna : if you want to give tip(s) to our readers, what is that? I suggest to not lose your curiosity to visit the sl lands and in my fashion blog I always say shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist! ^_*

I’m also showing fetishes - not necessarily mine - to show people, this doesn’t have to be cheap, but can be artistically beautiful too.

Pink Rayne
June 2015 edition 2
This is my favourite portrait of myself! It kinda follows the same theme as the last pic, except I’d learnt a lot of new techniques and was desparate to try them out. I was so happy with the results. As a person I’m happy go lucky, but like to get down and dirty, whether that’s getting stuck into a new project or in the bedroom. I wanted to show that in my title :)
‘Look Pretty, Play Dirty’
June 2015 edition 2
This was done with my partner Sammmymm boy. We have an easy, happy go lucky l relationship and wanted to demonnstrate this in a fantasy style photo so we got our elf on. The title plays onn the nursery rhyme ‘Row, row, row your boat, o gently down the stream’. I wanted itt to be real colourful and sunny as that’s t my personality, and also Sammy wore his h kilt as he’s a Scotty!
‘Gently Down the Stream’
June 2015 edition 2
Soooo happy at the sight of summer even though I only had a glimpse! Doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t everything seem better when the sun is shining, you can breath in the sweet air and feel the breeze on your skin? This is about the natural joy in those hazy, lazy, summer days <333 Medicine for the soul!
‘Balmy Days, Summer Haze’
June 2015 edition 2
This was an emotional shot for me. You know those times when you feel you’re constantly chasing something, but never get any closer? I put the REM song ‘Losing My Religion’ in the description with this picture because I felt like I was losing faith in something very important to me, and the question was whether to just give up, or carry on fighting. I’m sure a lot of people can relate to that situation.

‘Freaks Like Us’
June 2015 edition 2
Anarchy stands sturdy at the heart of the Wastelands. Surrounded by her vast army, she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even flinch as VOIDAR rain down from the vibrant skies. She longed for this moment... for the chaos that was about to ensue. Win or lose, there was no greater pleasure than seeing death and carnage form around her.
‘A New Dawn’
June 2015 edition 2
A siren bellows as the cold, steel doors open, grating across the rusted floor. A blinding, white light floods the corridor as VOIDAR begin to march out. There is no turning back now. For better or for worse, they were in this for the long haul.
‘Stepping Into the Light’

Ashley and Ruth find a quiet spot on an island just off the coast of Crian. They set up a picnic using earthen food and materials collected from the universal black market. Ruth begins to play one of her favourite new songs as herself and Ashley unwind on the secluded rock, embracing one anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company.

This picture was designed to reflect someone on a sunny day. Someone who is out on a jaunt wearing a hat to block the intense sun rays. The outfit, a large hat with red on it, a red polka dot dress and red lipstick, added to the natural features of the subjects freckles and green eyes. The background for contrast uses yellow and orange, which again gives the impression of a hot sunny day.
‘Red Apple’
June 2015 edition 2
Eva is a well known model throughout SL. Upon seeing her face to face, what stood out to me about her was that she seemed to appear both strong and fragile at the same time. My picture of her captures this stark contrast. But strong vs. fragile is not the only contrast it captures. Being seductive and seeking you with her eyes vs. softness is also a theme withing the photo. Her hair, which is blonde, such a soft blonde that it is almost white, turns pink in the photo. This gives the impression there is a light nearby, or the flash of the camera distorted the colors. I did this for portraying yet another contrast: A very private person yet the success of her modeling career holds her hostage in front of the camera and â&#x20AC;&#x153;big lightsâ&#x20AC;?.
‘Eva - Muse 1’

Wrape into a night drape Sharren Resident appear. This photograph is an intimate moment, meant to tease the mind. A simple pearl collar and the blue light are the only clothing she has, but the camera angle and her pose leave you wondering if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true or not, that she is naked beyond those things.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I found this place, I immediately thought of Peter Pan and Neverland. The colors, decor, funny animals and fairies that give the impression of having also a story to tell. It made me dream and give the feeling of back to childhood .. So I wanted to share it.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the story of a girl who likes to see the world as she wants. With her glasses she always feel like in a reality that is sometimes difficult to accept .. While without her glasses she can imagine and decide to see what she wants where she wants and when she wants. And to tell you the truth, she did not really want to find her glasses ..â&#x20AC;?

“So when I created the decoration of this picture, Secret Theater, as I put in the shoes of a director. As if I made a dumb show to let everyone see what he wanted and of course keep it secret. That’s why I titled the picture like that.”

â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I made this picture I was very sad. It is my impression sadness of the moment and the message that somewhere I was sending to myself, namely
