First actual shoot with Alice the amazing.

So one night as I sat at my computer, I get an urgent message from Alice Lopez saying that we have to shoot..Immediately! As if I were going somewhere the next day. So I said sure let's do it tomorrow! And so without much planning or thinking, we did. :p

With no place to really shoot, we decided to stick around my house. Bringing along her brother Mitchell and her boyfriend Eric, it was definitely an interesting time!

Also my first shoot using my brand new offbrand flash! It's really not bad for what it is. Here's a shot taken with the flash:

While Alice and I shot, her boyfriend and brother traveled to a nearby playground, where we had to go retrieve them...

After a while, we decided the 98 degree weather was perfect for shooting in a desert like area, so we packed up and took a short drive to the farming area across the street from my neighborhood. While sinking in the sand, and waiting for Mitchell and Eric to come back from their journey across the field, I managed to get a few shots of Alice....:

And then the two boys came back..looking a little like they've been stranded on a desert island, and really having fun with it.

Eric was just a little more modest than Mitchell as you can see.
And then we learned that a very stereotypical farmer guy had kicked us out of the field. Private property...hmm..that usually means "Good pictures here!"
We went to a gas station and stocked up on liquids and headed back to my apartment.
We shot some more..

And when the sun went down, we went over the photos and Alice and Eric ended up staying till the early hours of the morning, don't remember much, just watched some hilarious Muffins video on youtube. :)

That's about it for now!
