The Bridal Shoot

Wow, look at all that's going on here! It's a bridal shoot that I did in one of the great old Long Island mansions. Lovely architectural backgrounds, beautiful light from the large windows, and the models were easy on the eyes as well. But these things don't just happen - they require an entire cast, including the producer who chooses the dresses, those who get the clothing to the shoot, unpack the clothing, jewelry, and shoes, set clothes up on hangars, steam the wrinkles out, and then there are the two hair and makeup stylists and finally, the clothing stylist. Wow! Oh, and the photographer. That's me! That's a lot of people. I find the specific location in the house, and set up my electronic flash units to light the scene. Just before I get to shoot, the hair, makeup and stylists all swarm over the models to make sure everything is just so. "Clickclickclickclickclickclick..." and we are done with one shot, and on to the next.
