The ARMADIO fall 2007 Fashion Show was a total hit =). We did the show in-store first for the cocktail event and it was so crazy back there. The models had their heels clacking up the stairs to the dressing area as the make-up artist (who volunteered to do make-up since both of the artists scheduled had to cancel last minute…) while I primped and prepped with a, “K go you’re good… K go…” By 8ish, I felt like it was midnight but had to keep the energy flowin’ cause next thing I knew, it was time to get into the limo and head straight to Lumen.
Lumen is a pretty nice, hip spot with it’s clean lines, low tables and benches… and lighting… (It was so nice to see some family show up in support of it all.)
So we did our thing… I stepped away for the Fashion Show portion to primp and prep “backstage” behind the bar (tee hee) and went back right after to shootin’ the breeze to loud music while people watching… the crowd was interesting and fun… but I was either too pooped to care or too excited that I was spending good times with my cousins and a friend of theirs… or both…
With all the broken trees from yesterday’s crazy storms and word on more to hit Chicago today, we decided to just have Diana’s hair cut but not shoot since it was so gray out… and then by about 1pm, decided to shoot after seeing how nice and sunny it was out… So I whipped up a look for Diana and it was on… Man we got some great shots! We even got one of me in the shot by accident that came out pretty cool!
Diana is the sweetest thing ever. Tony is so patient with my obsessiveness and Heather is a wonderful hair stylist! She had Diana looking oh so Victoria’s Secret with that great hair styling. The weather was great because there was zero humidity so it kept Diana’s hair beautiful and bouncy. We started doing Diana’s hair at around 11am and started shooting at around 12ish… And all of us we’re tired and hungry after only 3 outfit changes!It was a lot of fun working with those guys!
