they've imagined it themselves a thousand times over.

Right.
At college, I do a photography diploma full time.
Our project at the minute is location. They asked us to go research locations and take photos of 10 of them (they technically gave us one college day to do this, grr). And then, in a team of 5, decide on a one, and plan a fashion shoot.
My group decided to use my idea of zombieness in a graveyard.
The plan was to have lots of nice opposite-type things.
I bought the tshirts, and printed them myself. And the plan was to have the person wearing the 'i am not a zombie' make up to be all zombified and the person wearing the 'i am a zombie' to be wearing just normal eyelinnerr.
I wanted to use nic and danny. cus nic's hair is blonde and danny's is black (and this was mostly being planned for black and white photos, so i wanted tonal opposites). And i sketched out a bunch of compositions to work with.
I wanted it to be bright sunlight cus i had ideas of how to use shadows and things but it was actually the complete opposite and was freezing and raining.
We got fake blood and stuff, and went to the graveyard we'd found and took shots of, and got to work.
I hope you like.
kudos to:danny for the frickin awesome job with applying the zombie make up to nic, and for standing in the freezing cold and rain in a t-shirt, and the same to nic (~paperxhearts). i owe the fuckers big style. Angela, girl in my team, for driving us there and driving my whining ass to get the fake blood. and poundland for creating such a thing of beauty, lmao.
shot with: Pentak K1000, standard 50mm lense, Poundland 200iso colour film, lashings of skill and style, yo.
