Jenn is Amazing

Jenn walked into my studio four months ago and I did a double take. Is this the girl I've been talking to for eight months about shooting? She looked so different in person. She's beautiful either way, but it's like two different people. I honestly went back to her portfolio and looked for the person who walked into my studio. I saw a resemblance I guess. She was an awesome model and such a neat girl. So when she came back four months later, I just had to shoot with her. Plus she pulled together wardrobe, makeup and hair. People don't want to say no to Jenn and there's a reason for that — she's amazing. 

And there she is. It's 40 degrees outside. The team is all dressed in coats and gloves and she's modeling in a tiny knit dress. You wouldn't know it was so cold. Michelle did makeup and Kymmy did hair, both are such great ladies who are magical with their talent. Rockin Bones (rockinbones.net) provided the wardrobe. We lucked out with the location, the hotel she was staying at was getting rid of their old mattresses. It was a perfect match for the outfit.

On the third set, I couldn't get the lighting right and she stood there in the cold without a single complaint, same for Michelle. I felt rotten! The location was new to me and I just couldn't feel the lighting. Sometimes my zen for lighting fails me - sucks when that happens and it's cold outside and everybody is just waiting for you to get something right.

Jenn really is amazing (as was the whole team) and I think it shows in the photograph.
