Jesus.. I have to be the MOST accident prone person I know.

So this Monday I was carrying our vacuum down the stairs and the latch came off the cannister and I slipped on the hose and fell onto my ass and continued down our entire flight of wooden stairs onto the concrete floor of our basement. It was one of the worst pains EVER! I winded myself, punched the wall on my way down and I thought I seriously broke my ass. My model Bambi was in from Saskatoon and she came running down the stairs because she heard the tumble. By the power of the gods no breaks.. well I hope no breaks.. but this is what my ass looks like. This was on day 1, today is day 3 and its worse lol. I had tickets to Nickelback and Seether tonight but alas I can't sit on my bottom for long and my back is killing me.. so it's me laying down with frozen peas on my ass. I gave my tickets back to my friend who has the box so he could give them to some clients. I am truly blessed I don't have to pay for shows at the Saddledome or NHL games.



So I had to hobble around Monday in Red Deer as I did two duo sets for Hazzardous Material. The first set we shot we did a Hazzardous Twist on the classic fairytale SNOW WHITE. We changed the ending in this tale and I've had amazing feedback from the teasers posted on our Facebook Page and emails from fans saying how pumped they are for the Friday's release. This is seriously one of my fav shoots EVER!.

So then the evening came and after hours of the Wolverine Gun and Tackle approached and we headed over there so they could fit the models in their clothes and get out the real big guns. I was so appreciative when this company wanted to work with us. They provided the outfits for my models, the props, the location and real guns! Like I am talking we used the big ass guns from Modern Warfare and hand guns that put the term "bad ass" to a whole other level. I'll make sure to show you the teasers from that set (it's going to be the set for the following week).

What made me even more happy. They owner's best friend came to tell us that this summer we can use his huge farmland to shoot another set with his army vehicles. One of them even has a big ass machine gun on the back of it. So this set is going to def be bad apples. I am very blessed to have such wonderful companies wanting to work with us for locations and costumes.

So this past weekend was a special one. I did a casting call for Hazzardous Material. I had a killer turn out of women but only two males. WHERE ARE YOU MALE MODELS?!?! LOL but needless to say I can't wait to add on the next 5 models to my company. This time around I did head shots and the interview then sent off everyone's photos to 5 guest judges. These judges are photographers, musicians and local talent in Calgary. This Friday I am posting the 5 models head shots on the site and FB page and then it's time to write the tales for these ladies and gents. Two of the models blew my mind. One of the girls I've been following for ages with her work. I love love love her style and pray to the photography gods that she is one of the picks from the judges.

So this week I am doing clothing shots, babies and kids for a boutique shop in Calgary. I got the little girls and babies done but this week its the little boys and boy babies. The girls we did a damask backdrop, pearls, suitcases and went for that classic vintage look. The boys are done with guitars, amps and have a more rock theme to them. TOO CUTE!. Then its off to shoot for Zivity this weekend and a couple client shoots.. including a killer set for a friend on SG. I can't wait to shoot his set! We have some fab ideas up our sleeve.

Have a fab HUMP DAY SG!
