3.10.14

Today we’re going back to the studio for the third time. Technically the companies fourth. I had other meetings on Friday. It has been a great learning experience. Thursday I felt much more productive. I learned things that needed to be done the first day. It was great. The studio was freezing cold. I was seriously a popsicle the first half of the day. Then he took us to lunch to a place called Mo’s Bettah. It was good. The brown rice was the best rice ever. I’m not really a bbq girl, but it was fun. The restaurant was even freezing. Then we went back to the studio. We had to take action shots where the pipe was broken and muddy. The biggest stress was getting a broken pipe. They tried running it over in a car and the big machinery equipment in the warehouse. The thing that finally worked was putting dry ice in it! Smart. One of the engineers thought of it.

Inside the studio we put water in the dirt. It got messy, but we put sandbags all around the edges of the tarp so that it wouldn’t get water and mud all over. I got to pour the water on the pipe. We had to make sure the pipe wasn’t too dirty for some of the shots. These shots tell a story. Sometimes you have to pay attention to special details that you wouldn’t ever really think about. These days in the studio have reminded me of my studio photography class. There are certain angles you need. My favorite kind of photography is not having any kind of assignment except to capture the couple and beauty in this world. That is what I’m best at and what I really love.
