One Shoot Down...

So yesterday I had such a hectic day...

I bought two swimsuits from american apparel:


Spent £10 on bubble wrap... got 20m worth of extension leads. Double checked location and asked a nearby house if I could use their electric, collected the camera, and went to Ed Thomasson's house for a spot of lunch and as a meeting point to meet Tom Giddings, David Bradley, who kindly helped out, and Elarica, the beautiful model from Models 1:






She's amazing, with long limbs and neck and lovely afro, she's perfect as the model on the giraffe. Thanks to Tom for getting her involved.

It was raining, which turned out as a plus actually because we wanted to go for quite a sinister, dark look, but with all the glamour and gloss of a guy bourdin picture:



After the shoot, soaking through, Bambi picked me up in the van and took me to Rob's house to drop off the giraffe (which we bubble wrapped to high heaven), and the Mishel's house to store the base till Wednesday.

Basically it all turned out really well. Tom is busy retouching the photo's as wel speak. He's spent a week working at Vogue seeing how they do them, so he should be amazing at it! The pictures are to follow in a late post.

Thanks to Ed Thomasson, Tom Giddings, David Bradley, Elarica, Bambi, Mishel and Robin for all their help! I couldn't have done it with out them...
