Summer is here!

Hello, hello! This is Elodii speaking, once again. I feel we should update a bit so here it is!!

As far as photo shoots go, we haven't done any more "official" ones, but I did do a mini-shoot with Reina two weeks ago. two photos from that are already posted on our DeviantART, and there are many more to come! check those out. C:


As far as new photos go, there are a great many posted on our DeviantART now! they have been edited and postedddddd!!!!! finally! haha. so check those out as well!

Since summer is here (well in two days, but you know), we will have a lot more time to dedicate to new photo shoots and such. we are bursting with new ideas and simply cannot wait to do those. Here are some sneak-peeks at some of our up-coming photo shoot ideas!!

-Harlequin
-Dolls/puppets
-Alice in wonderland(OFFICIAL)
-Surgeon
-Murder scene/murder mystery
-Fashion( just fashion. nothing frilly, really)
-Shower with Victorian dresses ( not what you're thinking people.)
-random assortments of photos

so there you have some of our ideas. if you'd like to add things to the list, please e-mail us, send us a note on DeviantART or IM us! we'd love some input and such! So expect much more out of us from now on!

thanks everyone for supporting us and commenting and favouriting our stuff on dA. it is very much appreciated! 0(-^O^-)0

WEBZINE+YouTube+NEW PHOTOSHOOT+more!

Hello all!! Elodii here with some exciting news!! It seems that we've stumbled upon quite a wonderful opportunity to get some more publicity here of late!! The lovely Reina is in a journalism class, and their next project is to create a two page web-zine spread. She has permission from her instructor to do her project on L'apres-Midi D'Or! So this should be an excellent opportunity for some publicity for us. We're simply enthralled.

In other news, we will be holding a much due photo shoot on Saturday of this week, April the fifth, two-thousand-and-eight. It is going to be LITERAL Alice in Wonderland, meaning actual scenes from the book will be enacted and photographed. We're going to try to stay close to the books original artwork and clothing designs, as far as costumes go, but we have limited time and no costumes as of now. I will be going costume hunting tomorrow to find some really good outfits for the characters, as they will look. I'm not quite sure what they are going to look like as of yet, but you'll all see them in due time, I suppose!

Things have been very busy for all of the members of L'apres-midi D'Or of late, we being students of ninth grade and all, but summer is just around the bend, so we will most absolutely be more active in Photo-taking and editing. We have some very excellent ideas for photo shoots in the future, so hopefully this summer brings time and opportunity to carry out said ideas.

As well as photos, you may also soon find videos of photo shoots. As of Saturday, we will begin filming each photo shoot so you all can see L'apres-midi D'Or "behind the scenes" and unedited! I think you all will be quite entertained by our...interesting mannerisms and personalities. We're all quite odd, to be frank with you all, and I think you'll enjoy seeing the less refined side of this group. lol. You'll soon find these videos of photo shoots ( and random videos of us being ourselves outside of L'apres-midi D'Or, such as home videos of birthdays and...well. you'll see.) on YouTube.

Our account name is lapresmididor

As for a sneak-peak at our next photo shoot, here is the cast of characters:

Alice ~ Alice
The Mad Hatter ~ Aiden
The White Rabbit ~ Elodii
The March Hare ~ Reina
The Cheshire Cat ~ Shamus
The Queen of Hearts ~ TBA
Mister Caterpillar ~ TBA

So there you have it!! Cast of Alices' Adventures in Wonderland, as presented by L'apres-midi D'OR! I hope you all enjoy our up and coming photos! We thank you for past support and we thank you all in advance for all the support to come!! You all are amazing!

Sincerely,
~Elodii

Important announcement from Alice.

Hello and good day. This is Alice speaking.

I have some fairly important news regarding me, myself, and I that I feel you all should know

As it sounds at the moment I am resigning as a member of L'apres-midi D'or.

No, nothing bad has taken place but I will merely cheer from the sidelines as L'apres-midi d'or goes on without me. I've had fun doing the photoshoots with all my friends, but alas I can tell that I'm not very photogenic and have simply come to the conclusion that I am not ment to do this. And yes, I am ok with this for there are certain things in life some people are not ment to do and I have found mine, is all. I feel as if I am holding back what could be a very successful cosplay group and that's the last thing I want to do. I will now more or likey help from the background by either checking this dA or with photoshop or pictures or clothes. So I'm not going to be gone for good but more so hidden from the camera. And maybe even showing up in different photoshoots from time to time but I can't very well promise that.

As it's looking right now I am scheduled for one more photoshoot before my time is up with the group.

I wish this group all the luck in the world and that things keep getting better for them. Good lucks guys! <3

So for now, I bid you adue

~Alice.

If you have any comments or concerns please feel free to send me a note.

Coming soon from us...

Hi there everyone! Elodii here with another update!! :3

This coming weekend, L'aprés-midi D'or will be getting together to do another photoshoot! I'm super enthralled. I get really giddy over things of the sort, so you can only imagine how ecited I'm getting with each passing day. All I'm going to say about this shoot is that it will be a bit different from the last shoot we did. A tad...darker, you might say. S be prepared for bloood. That's all I can say ;3
Also, we've picked out the best of our remainging photos from the last shoot to edit and post, so we'll be working on those. we'll try not to art dump, but be prepared in anycase for many a photo posts from us. We also may be adding a member per-say. She's going to be our editer helper. This isn't solid or anything yet, but we're going to talk and such and maybe it'll happen. lol so that's just about all from L'aprés-midi D'or. Toodles!

A bit of an update from Elodii

Hello there! This is a bit of an update from yours truly, Elodii. We are currently Working on editing and Retouching our photographs from both of our photoshoots. Please try and bare with us, as this is a rather tedious process for there are a great many hundred photographs to retouch. We sincerely hope you all stick with us despite our lack of substance in our gallerie at the present. We hope to submit more work very soon. Also, we are hoping to hold more photoshoots in the near future so we will have those as well. Please do be patient! We also want to thank our faithful; watchers that have given us so many comments and favourites! You all are so greatly appreciated! Thank you for making us such quick successes! I simply cannot express how greatly we appreciate you!

As this is an update, here are a few changes you will be noticing around the page in due time.

Firstly, we will be purchasing a subscription very soon. I'm not sure exactly how long the subscription will be for, but it will most likely be a year long one. If anyone would like to donate a subscription, we would appreciate you greatly and Thank you publicly for your kindness!!

Secondly, we will soon begin selling Prints of our work. We are undecided whether or not we will be upgrading to a print account or remain working with a basic print selling account, but nonetheless, prints will be up to buy soon!

Lastly, I simply loathe football. It was recorded in place of House and I'm quite irked at this. Just thought I should say that as well. Thanks.

Representing the lot of L'aprés-midi D'Or,

~Elodii
