i had a photo shoot scheduled for a band yesterday at 2 pm, and i ended up having to scramble a bit for a location after my two main options fell through – it ended up being the best thing that could possibly happen. i asked a favor from a dear friend who has a flower studio in the most beautiful, sprawly, strange mixed use building downtown. i wanted to give the band some kind of sense of what they were in for, but i didn’t really know because i’d never been in the belly of the building – so i just told them to meet me at the flower studio. i don’t know whether they were skeptical or not, but they didn’t say a word about it if they were. i love it when people just trust you because they like your previous work!

i got there early enough to explore the building before the band arrived, and it was so much better than even what i had been hoping. i didn’t want to leave. wanted to move in. i took photos while the band played – we were in this large cavern of a room and it sounded amazing. there was bluegrass bouncing off the walls. i was 100% happy. i need to figure out how many cupcakes i will need to bring to get dear friend to let me in to that space again.
