It all started one day last year when we were goofing around and took a picture...
We went for a hike and when we came back, this is what happened. Manda still has her backpack on! Ev picked up the BB gun and we quickly choreographed a shot.
The key is in the details. That's why it's fun, just plain goofy. We went to a thrift store before this and picked up a martini glass and an assortment of costume ideas.
Even Grace got into the spirit (reluctantly). I told her to pretend that there was someone chasing her!
Bail!!!
These two just make for the best partnering, mostly because they're both free willing.
Cheers with Charlie! (Val Ewing and Charlie the adorable puppy are the models in this one. After all, it is her outhouse, she's had a lot of practice sitting on it!)
That damn Clog! Note the clothes pin on my nose as an added prop.
CHARGE!!!
Shootin' a turd burgler!
I like that the kid is driving and the adult is shooting.
I couldn't figure out which one of these I liked better. Of course, both of these pictures, the boat is firmly on the trailer and on the land. I think that's what makes it work well. The outhouse isn't in some of these pictures, but it's the humor tat we're sticking with here.
It appears that the kid is catching a big one and the adult could care less while she's taking a pull off the ol' bottle.
Of course, these are all staged, but we thought they'd be really fun. They were fun to shoot. We'll be adding to these as the seasons change, which will make these more challenging, but equally as fun. I've got a lot of ideas to play around with!
