'The Cleopatra Project' is an original, creative concept by photographer Fred Moore. In late 2022, while re-editing this image from a 2017 photo shoot with actress/model Gloria, this concept came to mind. The image of 'Cleopatra' popped in my head. It was her eye in particular which sparked this idea.
Having worked with Gloria on past
projects, I was well aware of her talents as an actress, and model,
the perfect woman to portray such a 'historical legend'. I ran the
concept by her, and she was very interested!

The ultimate goal of the project is to do a 'high-end' photo session which will produce a 'fine art' series based on the 'Cleopatra' character. We will capture beautiful, artistic imagery, including her final demise. The very best images from the shoot will be offered as 'Limited Edition' prints, ultimately.
The photo session will require a studio rental, a professional 'hair & make-up' artist, wardrobe, set props and design, our paid model, as well as rewards for pledges made, to make our concept a 'reality'. The more funds raised, the better the production and results.
