Long night shooting over 40 pieces for Joy Hu Collections latest bridesmaid designs. I have to admit I was a bit shocked when she arrived at the studio with several large bags of dresses since I’ve been spoiled lately shooting several designer lookbooks with only about 15 pieces for each. It’s been a while since working with Joy but there always seems to be an element of surprise to our shoot. No different this time around, not only from her large collection but also from her entourage. Megan from Rouge Models (gorgeous and a total pro) was a bit shocked as well as she had reserved only a couple of hours for the shoot. Anyway once the pleasantries were done we got down to business with Joy doing some mad steaming of dresses while Colette helped Megan change in and out of the designs in record time.

Thanks to Colette for her assistance, patience and her Mancunian tenacity.

Soundtrack for the evening included Gnarles Barkley’s albums St. Elsewhere and The Odd Couple.

This is my third time covering a Chic-A-Boom Room show and as usual you have some seriously sexy talented dancers doing their thing. The live and interactive cabaret show was put together by DivaGirl Entertainment and Nuvo-Burlesque at The Mod Club in Toronto. I love shooting this show and they will be performing again next week. Make sure to check them out!!

All of my images of the show can be viewed here.

Thank you to Laura and her team at DivaGirl Entertainment.
