while there i also met, and posed for! an incredible group in SLC called the "Sketch Cabaret" (check 'em out HERE! i promise, you want to).
described as, "Salt Lake City's World Renowned Sketch Club. Blending Figure Modeling, Performance Art, Live Music, Djs and Art Showcase" they happily let me take a stab at holding a pose while being sketched.
the verdict must have been good; they invited me back to audition the next week ;D i was sad to let them know that i don't live in SLC.
but i did get some good pointers and a portrait out of it!
the following day i had my second shoot with Square Pixel LLC - we tried our hand first at some more wet plate images... before heading out to enjoy the recently fire-destroyed landscape about 40 minutes outside of the city.
that night was a chilly shoot in the wet grass of a nearby golf course with shane of Fern Photography. this was one of those moments that makes a model on her guard!! "follow me for a ways so we can park your car where no one will see it and then we'll go further in together" is NOT exactly a comforting greeting!! *SHEESH* SHANE!
like a smart model though, i had done my research and checked his references first!!
shane was a sweetheart, and an incredibly creative individual, and the result was worth the chills, sprinkler attacks, and subsequent third shower of the day.
and of course it wasn't long before i lost what little bit i was wearing..
then it was back to idaho.
less than 48 hours in SLC.
i heard the friggen "call me maybe" song AT LEAST 9,000 times!
3 shoots in less than 24 hours.
