Around the world in EIGHT hours...Part I

Ok...so I know I always sound excited when I talk about my shoots, but no lie I love my job. (and today might go down as my favorite shoot ever.) It was one of those special "gift" days life hands you when you have absolutely no idea what to expect, but it ends up being the time of you life! I shot 19 people, from roughly 17 different countries, in the span of eight hours...and I get to do it again on Sunday. AWESOME! I met the most amazing group of students and got all the "insider" tips on things to do and food to eat when I visit (to name a few) Honduras, Spain, Romania, Ecuador, Brasil, Aruba (although Aruba was holding out on me). I haven't told them yet, but I am going to go to each of their countries and STAY WITH THEM AND THEIR FAMILY...."shhhh!!" hahhhaha The poet from Tibet shared his heart while Mr. Adorable from Greece stated in no uncertain terms that "no, the Mamma Mia movie is not all there is to my country."

Here's a few sneak peeks from the day:

The poet. I can only imagine the stories he has to tell.


She's from Romania...and no, she's not a gymnast...don't ask her about Transylvania either!


Professional model..no joke...he's done some awesome stuff. When he said he did an ad for a coffee company I asked if he got "free coffee for life!"....sadly, no, but wouldn't that be great?!


My trigger finger is sore and I may need surgery on my wrist, but whatever...I had such a great time today and am so blessed to have had this incredible opportunity.

More to come....


enjoy*
