Okay… I am getting SO spoiled with my mentoring sessions. I seriously get the coolest people ever coming to me and I get to make a new friend, hang out all day playing, chatting.. I feel like it is cheating ;) I mean, I shouldn’t have this much fun working right?? Paula came all the way down from Canada (check her out here) and we totally hit it off. I’m trying to convince her she needs to come back to Portland (so much more shopping to do dear!) or maybe I will just have to venture up North..
We got a cute little model to play with for the shoot section of our day.. dressed her up, made her do crazy things & we ended up with this… ;)
Ellie: Thank you Shannon. They turned out so good! :) Your such an awesome friend and photographer! :) Your amazing! :)) (11.19.2008 06:49am)
