Blowing Rocks + Studio Shoots.

What a great time, had by all :)
Got to work with a great and creative team, Christine Rose (fellow photographer), Alice (new muse), Jarad Gibson (great model, great guy) and Jenn Yates, the most awesome MUA I've ever worked with.
Alice and I crashed at Christine's place where we did nothing but eat bad food and do studio work at ungodly hours of the morning :)
We woke up at 5:45 am for the 1st shoot, where we traveled to Blowing Rocks Preserve, a section of beach in Jupiter where the rocks are so awesome and pole out of the water and then look like cliffs at low tide.
We met up with Jarad G, a new face and make up artist Jenn Yates.
Here's a few shots of Jenn doing her magic on Alice...

Eventually we got super hot and dehydrated and took a break...we ate at a diner where we solicited the waitress to come shoot with us since we were one model short and she was pretty...didn't work out but she was a sweet heart and even said yes.

Then we all realized we needed caffeine..

And yet even another MU shot from inside Jenn's car...

After reluctantly saying goodbye to Jenn [she had us all in a great, happy mood!] we returned to the rocks, eager to take advantage of the nice overcast conditions.

Got some great shots that day:

And the day was looong. After Jarad and Jenn left, Chris, Alice and I went on an adventure to Richpeople Island Aka PalmBeach Island...didn't do those photos yet but I do have this.

Made his day, I think... :)

Oh and before I sign off, take a moment to appreciate the fact that models DO eat. Junk food. with their photographers.
