did you smile pretty?

saturday was a lot of fun.
people stopped by to have their portrait taken, ask what was going on, and some just slowed down and stared as they drove by....hiya!

we're already thinking about father's day and are nearly set on doing this all over again. we'll let you know what we decide.

besides sharing behind the camera duties with siobhan, and being in front of the camera (i have a mother too), i also got some "behind the scenes" shots.
take a look.

aw-yeah.
that's nick from univ

the rad backdrop made by m•o•m.
and check out the 12'x12' silk overhead -i love that thing.

siobhan shooting some of our younger clientele.

 
our worktable for the day.
see the boxes of 4x5 polaroid? that's it, they are all gone now. :(

shots from an opened box of color polaroid film (13 years old!) I found in my 4x5 camera case.

jordan and jackie were having waaaay to much fun. they brought props! so cool.

props were definitely welcomed.

here's a photo of mom putting the finishing touches on the backdrop friday night.
we thought we'd be able to continue shooting on sunday, but we used all the film saturday.

thanks to everyone that came by. we hope your mother's enjoy the gift.
