A 20 second break...

Gary Peterson Photography

I was working with this model in the studio and we had a short break between sets. It had been a long day inside, working with stylists, an art director, an agent and a whole bunch of people floating around that I had no clue as to who they were or why they were there...I wanted to escape the studio, the sun broke out..and I grabbed her and ran....

Across the street from the studio is a salvage yard, and earlier in the day, I had spotted a long trailer parked in front of it...I grabbed a kids chair from the studio, and we ran downstairs... I grabbed a sports camera from my rig, set the chair on the trailer, and told her to get on... she turned, I shot a few frames, and knew I was going to like the results..

I stashed the camera, had a couple drags, and we were back upstairs in the studio before anyone even missed us...

This is my favorite... simple and shows how gorgeous this woman is, without a lot of hoopla.....
