Hi, I'm Lillian Liu, and I'm a young artist trying to bring my own daydreams to life while merging two art mediums. Realizing early on that I really don't have an affinity for realism, and I've been developing my own photo editing style through a lot of trial and error. I like to mix in digital painting on top of my portrait photography shots, which results in (hopefully) a memorable look that reflects the fantasy world that I've grown up loving. I really enjoy letting my subjects see themselves as a work of art! I started seriously pursuing fantasy photography hobby as of two years ago, and now it has bloomed into a dream.

My goals for the future are to upgrade my ancient camera so I can finally take larger-scale creative photos, to reach a wider audience, to create a bigger body of work, and to hopefully inspire people the same way that my favorite artists have inspired me. I curate and fund all of my creative photography shoots myself, and hope to meet more wonderful people that this endeavor has brought into my life! Full credits and a roster of my talented models, designers, makeup artists, hairstylists involved in these beautiful photos and more can be found on my social media.

This is a beautiful photo but the post could have been done allot better. Her left hand is showing where the masking over/under done, it's so sharp that my eye just goes to that, and there is something going on with the outline of her boob like the skin was soften and the dress was clarified but that one dark line kills it. ***For those who are going to down vote me because of this, go for it. It's constructive criticism to help the photographer improve their skills.***

    Beautiful!! I love her tiara and neck piece flowing down into a bra piece that somewhat covers her breasts, with the matching bracelet & finger tip covers.The blue beads and citrine colored gems go perfectly with the metal used.
