Re: Cover Girl
Ryuji,
Yeah, he should have used a reflector but I don't have one :)
Our house is in a very normal plebian subdivision, but my back yard borders
on a beautiful farmer's field that has wheat or alfalfa growing at different
times. It is the most beautiful thing, and then behind the huge field are
the mountains. I have the best back yard! However, since Bozeman seems to
be becoming the next Aspen, it is only a matter of time before that field
gets sold, subdivided into millions of little lots. The PITA is that my
back yard is very shallow so my new neighbors will be right on my butt. I
suspect I will move then.
Rodolpho, I put the cover on my website here just for you, but my copy went
through the mail and is scratched all over the nose so it isn't great:

Congrats!
I just ordered my catalog!
(Which is also supposed to list the latest Silvergrain
products, too.)
Montana wind-- is that why he didn't want to use a big silver
reflector for the shoot? 42x74 inch reflector is a real PITA
to use in the wind!
More importantly, I see big green land behind you but what is
growing there?

Thanks, Judy and Jack,
I just got it a couple days ago. Pretty shocking to see me in print.
LOL My hubby will be thrilled you liked the photograph because he took
it. I can't wait to tell him this, but he is in the mountains way up in
the wilderness on horseback incommunicato now as I speak--hopefully still
alive and not eaten by bear, mountain lion, or wolf.
When Freestyle contacted me for a photograph I am embarrassed to admit I
had none. I had one from back in 2005 that was on my website when I had
accidentally dyed my hair penny red right after grad school (long story).
So I knew I had to update a photo. So one day I made my hubby go outside
in the back yard and photograph me. Of course, the Montana wind was in
full gale force that day and hence the wind-blown look. Really very
unintentional and I did send Freestyle other choices but that was the one
they chose.
But hey, I didn't pay a DIME for the photograph and I only pay $30 for a
haircut in Bozeman so I'm ahead of Edwards by FAR. And I have no virile
young men photographing me in a video either....
Perfect timing of the catalog cover to slip into my 3rd year retention
notebook which I am working day and night on right now and why I am still
on the $%$&&*!! computer tonight.
Chris
