June had booked up fast for Merrique and I, so we scheduled our regularly monthly shoot on the last day of May. Merrique was preparing for her wedding and had bleached her hair blonde for the event. She was moaning the whole time that she had gone a little overboard and had ruined her hair. It has since come back. Our plan was to shoot a few in her bedroom and then move to the outside and shoot around her rhododendrun bush but Portland weather wasn't cooperating (it was raining, surprise). We shot a lot of photos in her bedroom and then moved outside for a few photos in her backyard once the rain had let up. Wouldn't you just love to be her neighbor? All in all it was a very productive shoot, but then everything you shoot with Merrique is very good. This was my last shoot for May and we'll be moving right along into June next week with Naya, a Russian model whom I've worked with quite a bit. Thank you all for your continued support. Please enjoy this set with Merrique and stay tuned for more featuring this lovely woman and others.
