We had to make sure our model didn't freeze
—it was a cold and windy October day.

It takes a team! Note the heavy duty clamps
I'm grasping—we used those to weight down
the outfits' floaty layers.

I have to admit, I love wearing that tool belt. To get an ethereal look we layered lots of sheer dresses and skirts. Pretty, but it needed lots of primping.

We went with more subdued expressions
but our model was actually cheery and has a radiant smile.

Our photographer is an observant one and
often snaps quiet little candids like this.

The black boots and tights were purely
functional (and out of the frame) but I'm sort of loving the sweet-tough combo.

Norah has a fascination with biological specimens as props.

A bracelet adds a little pop of color to what ended up a cover shot.

Sometimes we all SWARM around the model
as soon as the photographer stops snapping.

Do not devour the prop food, do NOT
devour the prop food.

When I step in to model it's hard to get a picture of me not talking or cracking a joke...

See?
