I went into the studio today to shoot Cyberpunk 3.0, Chess II, and a three-model bodyscape series.
I got there before the studio owner, so I decided to take *
Charalei out back and shoot some nearby industrial stuff for a half hour while we waited. After ~
exhalesvanillalace arrived we went back into the studio to await the last model and set up for shoot #1, which was to be with all three.
Some time after the actual call time I gave the model a ring. She didn't pick up. She did call back to say that she'd utterly forgotten the shoot, was reminded by her husband, had some other stuff to do, and would come sometime later.
I decided to skip the three model and move on to chess. Unfortunately I'd bought powder foundation rather than grease paint, so the fine ivory did not show up well against my model's brown skin. Though I'd brought all four of our makeup kits, somehow the clown white wasn't in them. Ix-ney on the body paint.
So I took ~
exhalesvanillalace and *
Charalei back into the industrial stuff and shot them together. And then we went back inside and waited some more.
Then I set up an inside shoot for both of them, and shot that, and then we waited some more.
Then it was dark enough to do blacklight (the studio's major problem is a giant skylight, so blacklight MUST be done at night), but two of the blacklights refused to turn on, so I gave up.
Theoretically we'll go back into the studio Sunday to re-attempt Cyberpunk and Chess. I didn't get bodyscapes but the indoor two-model is enough to keep me happy for now, and it's satisfied my need to mix race in a photoshoot. I haven't looked at the RAWs yet but if it looks anything like I expect... I like it a LOT.
