So Surreal!

DSC_1301

I devoted the afternoon to fine-tuning my models wardrobe and chose this stunning wedding dress for Eva. This shot was taken by me, so pardon the lightings, angle & blah blah.

It's 'the day after' and I am utterly exhausted…We spent yesterday morning with our professional make up artist, Nici Tait (in her studio –thanks Nici, you are a star!) and Michelle Thornton getting ready to our adventurous photo shoot session with Joanna’s crew from Orange-Lemur at the Winter Gardens, Aberdeen.

The best word I can think of to describe this experience is “Surreal”. Emotions have run the gamut this week, a true roller-coaster event! Having only few professional photo shoot experiences before I had no idea what to expect. With this in mind, I've decided to give you a day random shots of happenings as a way to share my own personal experience . ENJOY!

I can’t wait to see the photos from Orange Lemur. Sorry girls, time doesn’t permit us to take single shoots, we will have another session soon!

Sherri with my favourite piece and everyone loves this green evening dress!

A true learning experience, that was amazing, exhausting and unforgettable, and filled with a kaleidoscope of emotions and feelings! Katie and I would like to say big thank you to all and making this photo shoot happens. We look forward to seeing how our story continues...! See you all in our fashion show this Friday, 4th Feb 2011.
