Photoshoot with Ariana & Madi

Today I did a photoshoot with Ariana and Madi. Madi was mainly my assistant for most of it, she did the makeup as well as helping with the reflectors (though we really didn't need them much today)...we have to practice with them more, because I still don't quite understand how it works.
Anyways I have a lot of behind-the-scenes for this shoot, so enjoy!

Photoshoot with Ariana

Today I did a photoshoot with Ariana, I haven't done one with her for awhile,

she's never done one by herself. She came over early in the morning after work

and then we got her dressed into a rather warm outfit that had lots of layers.

I thought the pictures reminded me of Teen Vogue. She's actually wearing no

makeup asides from foundation in the first outfit. Then we put some makeup on,

but it was just some light grey and white, that was for the second outfit. I wanted

to do something kind of Tim Walker inspired. Afterwards we did balloons,

that was a disaster. We had the ladder falling, the fail attempts at getting the right

shot, me walking bare feet when I was taking my 365, 'cause I wanted the same

scenery, and the multiple balloons that popped. Only two balloon photos turned out.

Photoshoot with Ariana and Gillian

Today I did a lovely photoshoot with Gillian and Ariana.

Ariana has never modelled before so it was quite interesting.

She's beautiful and excellent at it do, plus she has red hair.

(I have a thing for long red hair) We did the train tracks,

how classic and generic. But fun so no matter, we also

encountered a train which is all the better I do say.

We tried movement shots in dresses, can I say fail any

louder? Out of 400 and some photos maybe 3 or 4 turned

out. But that's okay, movement is especially hard when you

have two people. They're just great sports though.
