Walker, MN: Day 2

Okay, so we weren’t in Walker the whole time… we were all OVER the place. Bemidji, Cass Lake, Park Rapids, you name it. And YES we went to the Eelpout festival. It was disgusting.

Here is one of the many things I am proud to say that I did today: photographed a 12-year-old girl in a Versace dress on a frozen lake… (who probably has THE MOST beautiful big doe eyes I have ever seeeeeen) observe:

Also photographed: a cop, his drug-sniffing dog, little girls in cheerleading uniforms, a church youth group member named max who is all punk-rock. Needless to say, I had an interesting and wonderful day. Especially since I got to see Alex for 5 mins while I was at dinner at an italian restaurant in downtown bemidji.

More to come: abandoned high schools? hippie teachers? flamboyant new york men in fur-lined hats?!?! Stay with us!

    I feel sorry for this little girl. She probably is trying to look nice for the camera but all she can really be thinking is “OMFGZ I AM SO EFFING COLD!” Did you guys at least give her some hot cocoa after the shoot?

    of COURSE… and we had a HUGE full length quilted coat that we had her wearing between shots, among other things. believe me when i say that all of our power was going into keeping her warm (and thus, happy).

    […] Okay, so you remember a looooong time ago when I went on that shoot with Alec in Northern MN?? And you know how I said I’d post when the magazine of all the pitchas came out?? Well that was in September. And then, Photo-Eye effed up my order, and I ended up having to endure a crazy fiasco of re-ordering and backordering and delays in shipping from Amazon (who I then resorted to) and ETC. WELL I’m still waiting for my order as we speak. But I stopped by the studio today to say hi to Alec (and go out to get some unexpected coffees) and Alec GAVE ME ONE. FINALLY. MY HANDS ARE ON IT. AFTER ALL OF THIS TIME. THE MAGAZINE I WORKED SO HARD ON. jk… Alec worked so hard on. But honestly, this is what I have to show for my internship with him… and it is beautiful. […]
