after our short experiment with the wet plate images in SLC, photographer Chris Madsen of Square Pixel LLC Photography (you know what to do! ---> HERE!) decided that i needed to come back out. more than willing, the perfect opportunity arrived when he became one of the featured artists at SLC's August RAW showcase.
YOU HAVEN'T HEARD OF RAW??? GO CHANGE THAT! --------> HERE!!
currently happening in over 50 cities in the US - RAW is "an independent arts organization, for artists, by artists.
basically, it's badass. and you know my feelings on anything badass.

we are so fashionable.
so how could i say no? i put up a casting call, and booked three shoots with SLC photographers, all within a 24 hour time period. but first - the fun!!
once again meeting up with my gracious host and amazing artist friend karina gero, we enjoyed ourselves immensely at the SLC RAW. drinks, fashion, sketches, drinks, photographers, drinks, painters, jewelry makers, and did i mention drinks?? it was an incredible time all around!!

while there i also met, and posed for! an incredible group in SLC called the "Sketch Cabaret" (check 'em out HERE! i promise, you want to).
described as, "Salt Lake City's World Renowned Sketch Club. Blending Figure Modeling, Performance Art, Live Music, Djs and Art Showcase" they happily let me take a stab at holding a pose while being sketched.
the verdict must have been good; they invited me back to audition the next week ;D i was sad to let them know that i don't live in SLC.
but i did get some good pointers and a portrait out of it!
the following day i had my second shoot with Square Pixel LLC - we tried our hand first at some more wet plate images... before heading out to enjoy the recently fire-destroyed landscape about 40 minutes outside of the city.

that night was a chilly shoot in the wet grass of a nearby golf course with shane of Fern Photography. this was one of those moments that makes a model on her guard!! "follow me for a ways so we can park your car where no one will see it and then we'll go further in together" is NOT exactly a comforting greeting!! *SHEESH* SHANE!

like a smart model though, i had done my research and checked his references first!!
shane was a sweetheart, and an incredibly creative individual, and the result was worth the chills, sprinkler attacks, and subsequent third shower of the day.

late to bed and early to rise for my third and final shoot with Foto-Dreng Photography. this one turned out to be one of the more interesting and physically challenging shoots that i love! i returned home with quite the marks...
