I did a photo shoot this weekend, and now I am paying for it.  I went into some cold cold water, got chilled and didn't have a chance to warm up again..now I am sick.  Has anyone else ended up sick from standing in the cold half naked before?

Always bring a warm blanket.

Not as a model ... but have stood in a cold moutain stream shooting while the model is up on a nice warm sun soaked rock ... got so cold I had to get in the car afterwards and turn on the heat for 30 minutes ... and the whole time the model was just laughing her butt off ... and I don't blame her ... was all I could do to keep the camera steady from shivering smile

But, like Karlton said ..... TO GET THE SHOTS!

I hope you were paid for that cold shoot!

You really shouldn't risk your health for any shoot.

On Elizabethtown something like 30 extras got very, very sick from wading into water that had some sort of bacteria...
Always be careful,
