Lights, Camera, Shoot!

Prepping for shoot

Today was a very exciting day Haitianista!  It was hard work but fun.  So the pros no need to continue reading.  The beginners like us, please read on!

 So apart from the expected items for a photo shoot: hair and make-up, clothing, props and of course the items, you need a few basic essentials: Windex! Bubbly! and a wonderful friend willing to give up her day for a dream.

So the idea for the shoot was to use nature to showcase the rustic feel of Haiti (also it's perfect for a zero budget project).  That's where the Windex kicks in.  It's the best way to brighten up any prop.  See...

300 shots later, we are halfway done with the shoot, but exhausted. So we left the rest for another day, where another wonderful girlfriend will donate her time and space for the cause.

Also, today we were able to meet and interview an up and coming young artist, who does very cool headware.  Watch out for that interview shortly.

We will be posting the merchandise shortly.  Also if you would like to BUY the items right away, we have a booth at the upcoming  Big Night in Little Haiti event, Friday June 17th from 6 to 10pm.  Little parting gift:
