Surprise!

portraits | May 21, 2008

Spent a lovely afternoon with these girls who were, to say the least, surprised to see Joel and I and all our gear greet them with a big smile. There was a mix of shock, disbelief, and a good dose of humour as they realised that their surprise was not paintball or a pampering beauty session but in fact, a photoshoot! I hope you girls didn’t give Joanna (far left) too much of a hard time for organising this and I hope at the end of it all, you had a great time…looking forward to catching up with you all soon!

They came dressed pretty nicely for a paintball session don’t you think? I think they secretly knew what was going on haha. Also fell in love with the texture and strange design of this tree…they were like root-trunks!

Love the lighting in this shot that Joel captured, in his words…’movie lighting’!

Thanks girls for such a lovely afternoon and for being such good sports even though it was a little unexpected! I hope you’ll be able to treasure these memories and all the good time you girls have shared…and have fun planning your next surprise for Joanna :P!

Hi Trish! I am absolutely bowled over by the quality of the photos – definitely the work of a pro! :) Is there any chance of you holding photography tutoring classes? *grins*
Can’t say how much I love them all, especially the first two group shots and the single portraits of Grace and Edith. Too bad I’m as broke as a…. dried well =P Will definitely get some prints, haha. Can’t wait to see the rest of the photos!!!
