Photoshoot with Angel

I did a photoshoot today with my friend Angel.
She came over and we wanted to do another jumping photoshoot.
We had a "dress" picked out, but then it seemed inadequate.
So I suggested we use balloons. We blew a whole bunch up,
but by the end of it there was only two that hadn't popped.
We went downtown too, to do an urban chique styled one
and also a geisha style one in the park. The geisha one was
hard, as there was a lot of people everyone on the bridge we'd
taken photos on. After we got home, and decided to take photos
in the wonder yellow light that hit the green grass.

Photoshoot with Gillian

So today I did a photoshoot with my lovely friend Gillian. She's oh so lovely.It was a rather rainy and wet day, I'm not going to lie. But it was full of adventure.We started off around my around, going outside near my house, I tied her up to atree, and tortured her. Noo, I'm just kidding. But I did tie her to a tree and shegot water in her eye numerous times from the falling rain. However no shadows appearedso I was happy. As I hate shadows from the branches of trees.Then we came into my house, experiement with plants and broken mirror pieces, before heading off else where.
Taking city transportation and hiking amongst large hills.Constantly slipping from the wet grass. It was rather unpleasant when dogs cameand started barking at us, making the only nose you could hear. I froze her, but Gillian's a tough girl, so really imagine ... -1 C, wearing a bathing suit pretty much, except it was a bathing suit, it was a dress.Also there was painful experience of braiding the hair which took longer than I hadanticipated.
Wow, I feel like I'm writing so negatively, but I can assure you it was fun.We then headed to warmer grounds, a heated underground parking lot. The security guardwatched us with curious eyes and asked us what we were doing, I simply said "We're doinga photoshoot" and he left without looking back.
After that Gillian spoiled us with warm tasty white hot chocolate from Starbucks.It ended there, with the sweet taste in our mouth.-n.

Photoshoot with Jaqueline

Today I did a photoshoot with my friend Jaqueline.
It was extremely windy by the river and the sun
was at the wrong spot, at the wrong time and
therefore, not too many of the photos from the river
turned out.
However we went to the alley way again with
some new clothes that Jaqueline had recently
bought, which I found were gorgeous. We found
some pretty need spots that we never noticed before.

Photoshoot with Jaqueline & Joel

I recently, well today, did a photoshoot with Jaqueline and Joel. I wasn't there for very long,
maybe a three or fours hours at the most, because last minute it was changed, and no one
could reach me because for the first time in my life I had my phone off.
But anyways, we didn't really know what we were going to do, Joel brought some props,
and orginaly they weren't going to match or go together at all, but in the end they did and I think
it turned out relatively well. The only thing that bothered me was the constant sun orbs in the
photos which I constantly have to remove and sadly I'm not that good at it and it is a huge pain
in the ass. Sorry to say. On the positive note to my sun orb hatred, we got to draw eyebrows
on Joel, which by the way was rather exciting to experience.
Photos were taken in the alley way, less than 5 minutes away from Jaqueline's house.

Photoshoot with Angel, Madi, and Gillian

A picture of all of us : Me, Angel, Gillian and Madi.
So this photoshoot was really intense, we spent two hours on hair and makeup,
and usually I only spend like 20 minutes, if that. But that's mainly because
there was a lot of us, and plus Angel did the makeup and she takes her time
but she's also amazing at it.
So we had this whole organizational system going on when we were doing hair and makeup.
While Angel was doing her own hair and makeup, I was crimping Madi's hair, and Gillian
was blow-drying her hair (because she had just showered) and then she straightened it.
I was done Madi, and Gillian was done, and Angel wasn't so I did Gillian's ponytail. Then
Angel did her makeup while I picked out an outfit for Madi. Aftwards, while Angel
was doing Madi's makeup I was dressing Gillian.
Finally after that we had to take a 20 minute walk to our location, and it was pretty
warm out, probably the warmest it's been in a while, it was like 20 C!! Which may be
really cold for some of you guys, but it was definately boiling for us. The funny thing was
only Madi knew what the location looked like, and the rest of us just had to think of it in our
heads what it would be like. We traveled not that far once we got to the location,
maybe a kilometer in distance if that. I had expected we'd do more.
After that we had supper and then we went outside again to do a small photoshoot,
however suburbia took over everywhere and destroyed our location. But we got
a few photos out of it.
