G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S

It has been a busy week and a half since my last blog as we are getting close to Christmas. First, I would like to say HAPPY (Belated) 30th BIRTHDAY to my wonderful husband, Bobby :) His special day was on Dec. 7th, which was also our Engagement Anniversary. Since we are newlyweds, I guess that anniversary doesn't pertain anymore ;-)

As for tonight's post, I would love to introduce to you all the hot and glamorous diva, Scarlett Lillian. She's a wonderful friend and photographer--and not to mention, an awesome model as well :) Scar and I go way back in high school and had those times when we just communicated via email forwards in college. We rekindled our friendship through our love for photography just a little over a year ago. Scarlett was only not a guest at our wedding but our photographer in Vegas. So this time, it was my turn to be behind the camera and her turn to "model" for us (Bobby was there with me as always helping out with my camera bag). I always wanted to work on my night shots and always been a big fan of Gisele Bundchen. I love that cover picture of Gisele on Vanity Fair's Sept 2007 issue and wanted to re-create that glitzy-glam look. The weather at Jax Beach two weekends ago was just perfect for a night shooting, and Scar and I definitely took advantage of it. Below are the fun G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S pictures--so have fun!!

Oh yes, just want to say thank you to my husband for being there and "protecting" my model from crazy guys! Guys were walking up to us, whistling and wondering if Scarlett was really a celebrity. One guy even took pictures from his own camera--I just hope he won't use it for indecent purposes... ;-)



Here's the cover picture I wanted to re-create:

...and here's my version of the cover picture...

...okay, so it's not exactly the same...but you got the idea :)


Here are some of my favorite shots of the night:







Here is a picture of Scarlett's biggest fan that Bobby had to scold because he was getting a little too comfy with Scar (notice the look on her face):



Towards the end of the session, Scar and I just goofed off (she sure was one hot cookie that night!):



Here's the crew taking a break at Sun Dog after the photoshoot:

I've been an avid reader of Scarlett's blog and I've seen her photos of you and her talk of you. I've looked through your blog and WOW great work!!! I wish I had the novice skills you have, then again you have a GREAT mentor! I'd love to know if you just used your flash for the nighttime shooting or if you took out more lights. I'm always wishing photographers would share their camera settings as well as their photos. LOL
