Mums that Model & Playground Reveal Party

Over the past 2 weeks we have shot 4 mums in our studio for our Mums that Model project. (Read all the details on our earlier blog from Dec 2008.) Today we have our 5th MtM to shoot. The MtM has arranged 7 metre long stretched limo for the day, so we're excited and full of ideas of what we can do with that! While the weather this week has been HOT - plus 30 Deg C. temps - today we are facing much cooler weather and rain.

The weather forecast today is for the showers to clear and high winds, so fingers crossed the showers actually do clear by the time we get out there. Our shoot is planned to commence mid afternoon and hopefully with the cooler weather we locations we plan to use won't be so populated.

Then for a change, we're off tonight to film the last episode of the Show Ponies reality program Playground, which we have been producing the past 3 months. If you haven't seen any of the episodes yet take a look at: www.youtube.com/theshowponys The weather when we filmed the launch party, particularly for the Show Ponies arrival with the new girls, was wet and rainy. Our video cameras had their rain covers fiited and the light was very poor. Tonight we repeat the scene with the arrival of the girls that have made it into the 2009 Show Ponies team, and it looks like the weather is not going to be any better from their first arrival to Cristal's night club back in late Nov 2008. Well, at least it will provide some kind of symmetry.

A busy start to January 2009

Hey,

Last week was a very busy week catching up on editing of 3 Model shoots we did over 3 days (Friday through to Sunday) in our new Belgrave studio. We kicked of on the Friday with Grace from Ballarat. This is our third shoot with Grace over the past 3 years. It's great when models travel the distance to work with you.

Then on the Saturday the blonde bomb shell Jenelle. While Jenelle is fairly new to modelling but together we got some fantastic images. Then on the Sunday the elegant El. Not only is El a mum of a beautiful 15 month old son she is also a singer / song writer. Her LP (yet to be named) is nearly completed and will be available soon.

You can see more of there images in our 2009 Portfolio at http://www.hudcomm.smugmug.com/gallery/7030455_bGecc#451398964_MLhPi

First shoot for 2009

Hi everyone,

We had our first studio shoot for 2009 this week. A great way to start of the new year was a shoot with our good friend Ssim. We have been photographing Ssim on and off for about 4 or 5 years now. It was great to see her as we hadn't seen her in well over 8 months. A good oppurtunity to show her our new studio and office setup. Ssim recently got engaged so we had the oppurtunity to congratulate her in person.
