Hollie in the Parkade

Hollie and I agreed to meet on April 1st for a photo shoot. We were going to shoot outdoors in a few alleys around downtown Edmonton. March 31st the weather here was beautiful! It got to a high of +19 and was nice and sunny. Of course I looked at the forecast and noted that April 1st was supposed to be drastically different and only a high of +2 with snow. I was a bit sceptical (it might have been The Weather Network pulling our legs for April Fools Day) but when it started raining late in the day on March 31st I messaged Hollie and suggested a change of plans and arranged to shoot in an underground parkade instead. Even though Hollie assured me she was a trooper and could handle it, I convinced her the indoors would be better for both of us.

Well that was a good decision! April 1st was horrible… lots of snow and crazy wind. And if it got to +2 I would be surprised. We sure would have looked like fools if we tried to do this shoot outside!!

This was my first shoot with Hollie and I have to say I am very happy with how it went. An added bonus was having her Mom along for the shoot – she was able to hold a reflector for me for the bulk of the photos. I don’t often get that luxury… ha!

Take a look at the photos below to see what we were able to get from our April Fools Day shoot.
