Anekah’s Motives

I was asked recently to do some head shots and makeup application candids for Anekah McCall’s business start up, Anekah’s Motives. She is very young but already has a maturity and artistic vision well beyond her age, where most high school kids aren’t thinking about starting a business—she is well on her way. I was glad I could help out, and we had a fun shoot at the salon she works at in Palmer, MA.

These are just a few shots from the all-day shoot. She wanted to show some before and after shots, so I set up a studio in the parlor and jumped back and forth between head shots, applications, and an outdoor shoot that got a lot of attention from the locals 😉 The little dog who came up to the girls was happy for the attention, and didn’t want to leave!

TGIF-Cry Me a River

With April 15th (Tax Day) coming up fast. This week’s TGIF recipe will hopefully take the edge off just a little.

Cry Me a River

2 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. red vermouth
1/4 oz. fresh squeezed lemon juice
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Dash of Tabasco sauce
4 oz. spicey V8 juice

Ice a highball glass; combine all the ingredients in a shaker filled with ice; shake vigorously; strain into the chilled highball glass; dust with freshly ground pepper to taste, and garnish with a lemon wheel and thin slice of celery.
