Remember Jessica?

Jessica's my next door neighbor. I've done a few shoots with her in the past for her CD's, but this one is a little more exciting. This one had a make-up artist/ hair stylist and the coolest concept Jessica has come up with yet!

Fun Facts about Jessica:
  1. She'll be recording September 8 - 12 in Nashville!
  2. She's participating in Cruise with a Cause May 30-June,4 2011.
  3. Later this year she will be singing at Jesus Fest, UniFest, Pneumafest and Holy Fest as well as a number of other locations and events!

Some of you may be asking...didn't you do these a while back? Yes I did! We've been waiting on Jessica's management team to help her choose the portraits for her CD cover before we did the blog. Are the pictures in this blog gonna be on the CD cover? Nope..those are still a surprise! I do have a go ahead to blog on the shoot now and I'm excited!

So here we go!
The plan was to do a few outdoor shots and then head to location #2 for some wardrobe changes and a new setting. When we got to our spot it started raining and we didn't get to do a whole lot of time there. Jessica braved through a few shots and then it REALLY started to rain..so we headed back to our vehicles. Here's one of the few outdoors shots we got.


Sometimes crazy things happen when you least expect it. As we were walking back to the car, a train went by. I happened to catch it in the background of a cute spontaneous twist and shoot behind you shot. What I didn't realize is that the man inside the train was holding a sign that said, "LETS PARTY!" Great thing to show up in a photograph! It was good for a laugh though!

Hello beautiful windblown hair! This was seriously one of my absolute favorite shoots ever. I got to use lights, cameras, fans, special effects and hair and makeup was touched up on the spot. I felt like I was shooting for ANTM!

This is one of my personal favorites!

Jessica asked me to do "something CRAZY" to some of the pictures...this is one I came up with...


This is another favorite.

I love this one too. The people doing laundry in the laundromat probably thought we were insane. Oh well.Okay, for this one I'm sure they thought we were insane. At one point I believe the hair stylist and me were also in the buggy working on posing..lol (Not at the same time though!)

I'll post a follow up message when Jessica's Album is released and a link!
