Isn't that last picture kinda oddly Avedonesque?

The funky thing about this one is that production-wise, everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) got completely screwed up, some really strange cards were played out against this evening happening, as kinda tends to happen when nobody's getting paid and too much is left to chance and good ol' Murphy's Law (which will always rear its head, especially the more complicated your plans are). Turned out pretty good anyhow.



   

Life's fun. :-)

That cann't be London! Where's the rain!

the one i posted was also very screwed up, but worked in the end.  the first model i had booked had to go the hospital, so the agency sent a replacement (thankfully, a very good one).  i had forgotten my little ricoh pocket camera, so i went all the way back downtown from harlem to get it (ended up using just that for the whole shoot).  halfway through the shoot, the model got a phone call about a very serious personal tragedy.  the make-up artist ran into an air duct and got a shiner on her forehead.  then we all got locked on the roof and it was COLD.  we had to jimmy the lock. 

but i'm quite happy with the results.

Sounds strikingly similar to mine, actually. Strikingly similar.

One constant with this sort of business is that bizaare things happen. And more weirdness than usual happens when nobody's getting paid.
