Something Different--Raquet Girls

I had a chance to do something different the other day, a model shoot. Just so you know, it was pretty strange to photograph someone and then hand them a check for coming, that's just not the way we usually do things around here. That's not to say I don't photograph models from time to time, I do. But they're usually hiring me, not the other way around.

This fun session was for a new company out of Georgia called Raquet Girls. So it was their check I gave the model, that made it easier. They are launching a line of tennis clothing for tweenagers, and they have some very cool items. Nothing I would wear, mind you, but then I'm not a tweenager. They are building the web site now, and if you want to check them out go to http://www.raquetgirls.com/.

The owner/designer was once a professional photographer, and I was flattered to say the least when she called wanting to hire me. She had tried to find someone in Georgia, or in the area of Florida closest to her, but wasn't happy with anything she saw.

Our lovely model is Miss Taylor Ann, and she isn't only lovely, she's sweet and talented. She is an accomplished harpist. The newest sample portrait here at the studio is of her playing the harp. We're planning a little Open House for the studio in mid-January (after the holiday season calms down) and she'll be here with her harp to enchant us. You should come! More on that later.

And no, that's not twins. It's the magic of Photoshop. Thanks, Raquet Girls, and Taylor Anne-that was fun!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
