Model Shoot #3

Big hair + frilly dresses + wild make-up + albino Texas Rat + cold warehouse = HIGH FASHION.

 Yep, that’s the exact formula for high fashion that I learned in college and it seemed to be the one employed at my model shoot.

I was quite surprised at how all the models seemed to think nothing of having the snake draped over them.  The snake, on the other hand, had a different idea.  She (I was told the snake was a “she”) was in constant motion and often got completely tangled in the model’s hair—which made for some interesting moments.

 Enjoy.
