Research Research Research!

So mostly been researching childhood fairy tales and fables.  I also have a child phycology book I have not had a chance to look into yet.  Hopefully will be done with the research this week, so next I can scout out areas and take some test shots next week. Trying to be very thorough which I usually don't do, but have a limited time with the models. I am meeting with a photographer friend of mine Friday to go through some lighting set ups and ideas.  I want a very surreal type lighting just need some hints to perfect it.
