Clarisa: LIFESTYLE PORTRAITS


Clarisa and I shot her session downtown, and I broke out of the box and allowed Clarisa shoot a bit under my tutiledge and *I* was the guinea pig of the hour! (Coming soon! Gotta edit them!) I wouldn't ordinarily let anyone handle even my back up cameras ( you all know how possessive I am of my cameras!!!) but I actually have known Clarisa for quite awhile out in the real world and she has proved that she will neither drop it, nor go running down the street with it!

And again, Emily barely escaped being arrested for committing some crime with the camera. DARN!

We were shooting on the railroad tracks since I hadn't seen any cops around, but I guess we were on the tracks a smidge too long when a train was coming because the lightrail driver stopped on the tracks and apparently TATTLED (radioed/called presumably) to the transportation officers that we were there and he came SCREECHING UP and screaming at us about what were we doing and we were trespassing. He was quite scary!!! As he was screaming and gesturing (And the 30-50 onlookers at the lightrail station pointed and stared) he whipped out his ticket book and started wildly scribbling, and demanded our ID's....

Well, we didn't have out ID's because we didn't want them to get stolen by the trolls (no offense to the trolls, we love you, we just recognize your tendency to "permanently borrow" items left on the ground while two silly girls are snapping pictures of each other in alleyways.) so we had stashed them in the truck, many, many blocks away.

Once being informed of this, he begrudgingly put his ticket book away and told us to stay away. So I ONCE AGAIN escaped arrest/fines/tickets, etc.

YAY!

Wow, what a story. The pictures are awesome so it's nice to know you risked life, limb and a ticket and it was worth it :)
