Day 1: 12-5:15 p.m.

Getting to learn the vibe of the studio and how everyone works together. The studio truly doe run off of a family vibe and I am beyond excited to be a part of that family.

I have never seen such great flow in a studio before, everyone seems to understand each others needs and how to accomplish those needs with prompt grace.

Today we shot with a RED camera that took 3,000 frames per SECOND! INCREDIBLE! I got to sit in on the "inspiration meting" and learn about the image Troy was seeing for the shots. After watching multiple videos of what he was envisioning and discussing the look of the shoot, we got to work. I loved watching the styling and watching the gorgeous model get ready for the shoot.

We shot a shoe type of ad that included a naturally beautiful girl stretched out on a long black couch draped in a gorgeous black dress with pops of gold jewelry and shoes. The shoot turned out beautifully and was very fun to experience Troy's passion of beauty and photography in general.

Troy has a great attitude and has made my time here so far very positive and enjoyable.

Cynthia seems to be the "spine" of the studio. She is very knowledgeable (as is the rest of the crew) about multiple tasks that take place throughout the work day.

The boys in the studio all have different talents that range from running and owning a RED camera to motion graphic/ re-touching abiltites. I am really excited to learn from all of them!

The other ladies in the studio also are great! Helping with task that may seem small, but make ALL the difference in the world, as well as web design and retouching. I am really happy that I get to hang out with fellow cat-lovers and possible get some tips and tricks on designing and perfect my beauty blog, photography website,  etc.

Eric, the stylists, is FABULOUS. He truly does understand fashion on such a wonderful level. I feel safe when he's around (in the name of fashion!)

Today's Accomplishments & Tasks

• Called in the order of break for The Savory for tomorrows 8:30 a.m. photo shoot for Belk.
• Observed everyone and the work they do around the studio/ met new people

Tomorrow is a BIG day. We are all working on an AD for Belk. Cynthia e-mailed me a powerpoint of the information and inspiration for the shoot so I would have an idea of what was going to go on. I love this idea of the powerpoint because it really prepares everyone for the shoots as well as gets everyone organized for whats going to happen! I think I am going to start doing this as well, and make more "inspiration boards" and "look-books" for shoots. Finding a good method for making these is key for any photographer!

I know I am really going to enjoy the time I will be spending here. I feel very positive about my future now knowing I am surrounded by so many talented an driven people.
