I've never worked with Aimee before, but I have seen many, many photos of her work on Model Mayhem and had been admiring it all before she contacted me for this shoot. She does make-up, hair, modeling, and now she has taken up photography as of six months ago.
So, I was more than willing to do whatever it was she wanted me to do!
She presented me with a yin and yang concept. I had the general idea in my head, but then she showed me the inspiration photo:

Off-Topic: She had two adorable kittens who were jumping around, loving and licking my plastic bag containing a brand-new dress that sat on the couch during the duration of the shoot. Adorable! They love the taste of plastic! Lick lick lick.
My hair and the yin took about an hour and fifteen to complete (so fast!). We went upstairs to her studio space and spent at most half an hour taking pictures (so fast!). The shoot was over at 12 P.M. Most definitely the fastest and most successful shoot I've done. It would be absolutely fantastic if all shoots were like this. I am so used to spending all day somewhere that I don't even realize how valuable my time is. I trust as I get more professional, the shoots will, too. After all, time is money, huh?
Final photo:
Total time: 2 hours
