Photo-shoot bloopers photographs.
To start off, Christina and I finally decided on our theme which is patterns. After that everything really did come into place. We put a bunch of garments on top of her bed ( her room is the best it smells of scented candles and it’s so warm). We agreed on the clothes, which included: her Kurt Geiger shoes, my vintage 80’s shoulder padded top/cardigan and this zebra-ish pink dress. We woke up early in the morning, well I did, when I arrived there Kristy and Christie were still in bed. Can you believe it? Loren answered the door, eyed me nicely and was like ” You’re not going to be happy about this but they’re fast asleep”. Let me skip a couple of hours later.
I went into university and booked out the necessary equipment - lighting, SLR camera and tripod, I saw Jasmine and chatted with her for a while then she was off to Camden in attempt to sweet talk bar owners for her own photo-shoot. I’m expecting nothing short of fabulous since she is working with Yo, all the lecturers love him on a different level. Moreover, anyway, Christina then picked me up by car ( in her robe). The equipments were pretty heavy I must say and we eventually got back to the house and got Kristy ready. She looked stunning as we decided on nude make-up, that way all all the focus could be on the clothing and the location. Don’t even let me get started on the location, that comes later - trust me it’s pretty rough.
We were finally ready to depart with two animals ( her bunny and my cat). We picked Julius up because the location freaked us out way too much and us being girls we refused to go without a man. We arrived at the location - that is, a mental asylum! that had been closed ages ago. It was the spookiest thing I’ve seen in my life, it was barred, Christina’s heart was beating a mile away and we couldn’t literally get in because again it was barred. Julius had checked out the place beforehand. Let me tell you one thing - that asylum is one big horror film waiting to happen. I hope none of the crazy students organises anything there, in the near future that is. Never go to ‘West park mental asylum’ unless you want to die, trust me bbz.
Furthermore, since we were unable to use the asylum Julius suggested us going over to the abandoned house which was twice as scary. Well it was an old people’s asylum. What’s more is that it is literally about to collapse - so we’re there and everything goes according to plan until Ollie decides to not be as cooperative as Button and nearly attacks Kristy. Highly funny. Wait, what? Forget about Ollie because there out of the blue lies a horse, yes a horse! Awesome for our photo-shoot because more animals we get. However, I really should call RSPCA because it looked pretty dirty and there was too many needles around him.
On a last note, I loved the whole ‘feel’ of it. Everything went according to plan. I photographed the model and Christina was pretty much the stylist and we got at least three hundred photographs - that’s right. We got more or less one hundred really good ones. Thanks horsey and Kristy. She only did it for a mcdonald’s but I couldn’t be more grateful. I mean she stuck around even after entering that scary-looks-like-Goblin-or-something-from-the-descent-lives-here. I’m pretty happy with the outcome anyhow minus Ollie pissing and the frightening scenario.
I shall upload the actual finished alluring photographs next week. Without a doubt.
