Awesome day of adventure and fashion at the Elora Gorge. Anne-Marie from Orange Model Management definitely put her A game on as she toughed it out for about an hour shooting in her summer dresses in the cold snowy gorge, looking fantastic and making it seem like it was 90 degrees. There were a couple of scary moments as Anne-Marie and I on separate occasions broke through the ice luckily without incident but it was scarey as hell. It was also crazy getting down to the gorge as you can see there were about 70 steps covered in ice that led us down there. After the steps there was an additional 80 foot slope to get to the frozen river. The entourage and gear made it down without much trouble. Going back up on the other hand was quite a work out (damn Profoto battery pack!) and I defnitely felt it the day after.
Thanks to Meghan for the awesome hair and make up (and body heat), Katie for her assistance (and body heat), and Colette for her assistance and usual great vibes to make these shoots super fun!
Although there was no music during the shoot, listened to Richard Hawley’s Coles Corner on the way to the gorge and Ryan Adam’s Love is Hell on the way home. Both fantastic albums!
