Photo shoot *done*
I actually got most of the new sets done in time for the shoot. I couldn't have done it with out the help of several friends and by getting about 5 hours of sleep a night this week - and got 3 hours Friday night, but it's *done*. LilMizscareall got her falls delivered Friday night as well. She must have been making them while driving a carriage... but we got them done!
The photographer started shooting at 1:30 or so and we all had to be out of the garage by 4. He said he got around 300 pix in that time and that the shoot went really well. I was getting hair on and off of models as fast as I could which allowed him to keep shooting pretty much non stop. Unfortunately, I'll have to wait for the photos to come out to see what they looked like - I was too busy to see at the time.
Culbertsons has some of the coolest cheesecake original photography (most signed!) on his walls and even the *phone* sported a cool flame paint job. Add to all the vintage auto-splendor an amazing disembowelled ghoul statue tucked up by the ceiling in a corner, and we thought we'd gone to photgraphy heaven.
Everyone was great, and with 4 models, I didn't have to model myself (yay) even though I came dressed for it just in case we ended up with too few.
Even the two guys (one who worked at the garage and the car owner) were cool. They didn't seem to mind waiting around while goth chix draped themselves in and on the car and the garage. Wonder if any of *these* photos will make it up in their cheesecake gallery? Heh.
We were setting up out front and watching the cars slow down as they drove by was kinda funny too...
I really think we need to do this again in March or early April to post in time for CXI.... only next time I really want the 1930's Ford truck in the shoot! - with the ghoul driving. There's *gotta* be a way to get him down from the ceiling.
