I’m putting together some package deals with the local inns to feature vintage clothing portraits so I’ve been working getting samples for web sites and room info packets. This weekend I hired Allisa, a professional model, to get a bunch of shots done. Friday night we shot at the Victorian Inn. Here she is wearing a 1930s bias silk gown and bed jacket.

Friday ended up being a very hectic day, with several non-scheduled events adding to the complexity. Hitting a bird and getting a flat on the motorcycle weren’t in my original plans, and after getting back from photographing Alissa around 10:00, I had to respond to a brush fire out by the river. The only way you can get a brush fire in Ferndale is if you try real hard to set it. Fortunately it didn’t spread very far and we got it out quickly. Then I had to get to work on completing a web site that a customer wanted done before Monday. Got to bed around 1:30am.
