Meet the Nudds. They rock. I've known them for several years now and love visiting Cleveland so I can pop down to Chattanooga and visit with them (when they are not traveling the world taking amazing images, that is ;) ) Extremely talented and precious people.
For our shoot, I pitched a crazy idea to them based on what Joy told me inspired her. I thought for sure they would tell me I was a nut and to forget it, BUT they didn't. They were ready and willing to do what it took to pull this idea off and I'm sooooo happy they did!
We raided their guest bedroom and stripped it of it's furnishings, went antiquing to find a chandelier and scouted locations downtown Chattanooga to set up. We got to work staging the "set", stood back and after finding, purchasing and figuring out how to hang that crazy chand, it blended right in with the brick! You couldn't even see it. I said, well, we could paint it? No worries...Handy dandy Garrett's on the job., he whipped up some paint and a few brushes within a minute or so and their friend and I painted that bad boy in a matter of minutes. Ta da! All good!
(Did I mention it was about 112 degrees? <~~~~ only "slightly" exaggerating)
Thanks Nudds! You hard workin', hard lovin', hardcore somebodys!I love you guys.
