» Sometimes When Everything Goes Wrong..It All Works Out

So I’ve finally had some time to unwind and catch my breath from my crazy week last week! I’ve unpacked..which caused a huge amount of laundry since I went thru 2 suitcases full of clothes during my Tues/Wed photo shoots! I’ve washed off the spray tan and started to grow my bush back (at least for a week or two!) and gotten back to my normal life! ..until next shoot of course hehe:)

Sunday I got a massage, spent a couple of hours sitting in the steam room and hot tub at the spa.  I also slept a lot..I really needed it!!

Monday and Tuesday I spent a lot of time on my webcam for CamModels.com

and TODAY I am finally ready to start telling you guys all of the juicy details of my week last week!!:)

Last Tuesday I had a shoot with Jay Allan.  We were shooting some solo pics for his Christmas card and a set for my site.

I was super excited when Jay and I both agreed on a 12noon shoot time since I am NOT a morning person!  But Monday night right before as I was going to sleep I realized my hair dryer was broken and I needed to wake up earlier than I thought to rush to the Walgreens and get a new one.  So I woke up at 8:45am..isn’t this what I was trying to avoid?  ugh!  Well at least I got a super cute pink dryer for $20 fs that was a score!;)

I spent 2 hours getting ready then as I’m trying to leave around 11:30 my GPS was not cooperating and Jay and I spent 20mins on the phone trying to convince my GPS to pick up his address.  So I was late for the shoot and felt bad about it and stressed about it the entire ride there!  I should have known right then and there that this day wasn’t going to go smoothly LOL!

So I met Jay at the house around 12:30, and I went into the house to recurl my hair and apply some last minute makeup.  This is usually the 1st thing I do at a shoot and usually I have about 15-20mins b4 the photographer starts calling for me.  well 45mins later I was wondering if everyone forgot about me!  Turns out poor Jay Allan and his crew were having prob w equip that they borrowed from someone else.  3 out of 4 lights weren’t working the way they should!  oh noes!

So I chilled out, grabbed a snack, tried on all 10 sexy Christmas related outfits I brought to the shoot,  Twittered and took lots of self pics and pics of Jay and his crew setting up my winter wonderland.  (I have to pull them off of my phone maybe I’ll post them tomorrow some of them are super funny!!) If I told you guys what materials he made the scene out of you would not believe me after looking at the pics but I will never tellllll :)

I think we started shooting at 3:30..LOL!  Jay rigged something and totally worked a miracle and got everything working just as the sun started going down!  Luckily they had portable heaters there and they followed me around like a princess whenever I said I was getting chilly!  Once we started shooting it went smoothly and we got some amazing shots!

We ended up shooting some video and another set that was totally unrelated to x-mas.  We shot well into the night until it was dark and freezing cold..prob around 9pm!

Then just as i was leaving and I thought the curse had lifted.. Jay’s computer crashed 6 times while trying to burn my pics onto disc for me.  We were in the middle of a convo about how I should never leave a shoot without my content when it kept on crashing..and I gave up and left without the content LOL!

but you know what? it worked out better..because out of the 600 pics we took Jay narrowed them down to the best 100 and resized them for me.  We met up the next day and he had them all ready to go for me so..in the end..it all worked out!:)  it actually worked out better for me!

Jay was a total sweetheart and fun to work with.  I think we got along really good and I ended up with a disc full of kick ass sexy holiday pics a whole month before Christmas! So in the end..even though EVERYTHING went wrong..it all worked out great!  :) That’s usually how it goes at shoots for some reason..at least MY shoots hehe :)
