PTFCo welcomes Aya

[Alliecat]

Aya joined the crew in June, at PUDDLE. She waited 3 months at Greys' house to meet us, so I guess she's used to waiting... Finallyfinally, she got her introductory photoshoot. I've got at least 5 batches of photos to sort for as many projects, but made a little progress tonight.
The first few pix are from PUDDLE & are part of the reason I wish it was longer. It would be lovely to have time for a little field trip/photoshoot. I managed about 15 minutes in the courtyard before supper.


Eloring the garden.

"Oooh, pretty!"



Looking relaxed during a crazy-rushed shoot. She's a natural

This week we went out to check out my garden.





Pretending to be shy.



"Hmmm, what's this...?"



"Yummm! ...No, you can't have any; it's mine!"

It has become a PrettyTiny Film Company tradition that when you join, your first photoshoot is on the beach, you faceplant at least once in the gravel, and mum 'almost-loses' a prop.








I 'almost-lost' her blanket... I draped it over a rock, got distracted with the next photo, then was sure it was afloat somewhere when the tide came in. Spent too much time looking back at photos trying to figure out where I'd left it, so, where it might be in the water, couldn't find it... finally discovered it in the bottom of the bag; I put it there in a moment of absence...!!!



She was going to be standing up here. I caught her just at the beginning of a slow-motion lean that would have become the biggest stunt fall in PTFCo history (the rock is about 3 1/2 feet high and all gravel around it ).
Whew. Scarlett still holds this record.



She wanted to touch the tide... tricky for someone so small to stay dry
It had been thundering distantly for a while, and the light was going, here.



I think she liked the big outdoors

Thanks for looking.
