Full Weekend

Gearing up for two photoshoots this weekend! From the crack of dawn, 'til who knows what hour of the evening, I'll be working cosmetic wonders. About time I had a decent day off. Today was all technical to-do's--groceries, laundry, blah-blah-blah. That's what happens when you work too many days in a row. Things pile up. Glad photoshoots is one of them.

So, what's in store for Sunday? First off, we've got a woodsy, simplistic, story-bookish theme going on in Spanish Fork Canyon, UT. Somewhere between Where the Wild Things Are and The Wicker Man is where our photoshoot's gonna sit. If we can get it half as awesome as the concept pics, we'll be sittin' pretty. About 3 - 4 models, a couple of hours; Sarah Miller backing the camera and (possibly) Alexis Anderson throwing hair together. I think we're golden.

Might go a little something like this...

Next up, I'll be hitting the chop-shop. Alexis will get right back to work doing hair, giving mine the touch-up of the century. I change my mind too fast for my own good. Born brunette, bleached it white, now I'm ready for red. Clairol didn't do the trick. I'll let Alexis wave her magic wand. Afterward, I'm Torsten Bangerter's in Candyland. 

Candy shoots. I know, I know. I've had my rants and raves about how hard it is for me to appreciate them. I find anything candy-themed and sugar-coated cliche beyond words. I blame Katy Perry's, California Girls, music video. Say "candy" and "photoshoot" in the same sentence, all I see is bubbly blue hair and peppermint boobs on cotton candy clouds. Not original; but, just like all cliches, can surprise on occasion. Here's to stepping up to the plate and putting money where my mouth is. Bring on the candy! This won't be the first time, either.

The one with Torsten's a strictly cutsie, classic candy shoot, but I've got more artistic things in mind for the future. Creating a crazy-original candy shoot is now a mission. Watch. I'll be the next one to lolli-pop out a candy shoot series that blows the bubblegum out of people's minds. Time to kick it in the gumballs!

. . . Yeah, no more puns.

Fun things on the horizon! Definitely looking forward to good times.
