Friday...
On friday, I shot Pillow Fight Girls. A pretty big production, involving 3 models, a hired venue that we had to be out of at 2pm, pillows with holes cut in them, a shitload of flashheads and bags and bags of feathers.

A typical Abbywinters shoot has a stills and a video component, we nearly always shoot stills first, because it lets the models practice in a sense for video, when audio is a concern. Problem is the the models and set get dirty, wet, or say covered in feathers, it has to be dry/spotless again by lunchtime when we then shoot the video.
The cleanup was MASSIVE, plus there was another photo crew that had hired the venue for the afternoon, and were getting pissy (understandably) when there were errant feathers floating around.
The shoot looks great, I'm so happy with it. Its a shame i didn't have a little more time, everything looked so good i could have shot it all day...
