I was super excited about this shoot as it was a team effort to put together. My friend Angie has always dreamed about doing a shoot in a laundromat...Yes, with washers, dryers, laundry moving in the machines, and all that jazz...that, until we actually started looking for one for our next get-together. We wanted a grunge laundromat that screams "banged up" and "used and abused", but that is not so easy to find in pretty, manicured Naples. In the end, Jennifer found a great place in North Naples, called Suds & Duds Laundromat, whose owner Maria was nice enough to let us shoot in it. Yay!
We found our models Angela and Brandon through Facebook. Angela is taking Angie's photography class and e-mailed us a photo of her and her husband, saying they're interested in participating in the shoot. Awesome!
Aaaaand the rest is history...
Angela and Brandon are newlyweds. They got married three months ago at the Ritz Carlton in Naples, so being lovey dovey with each other was just a breeze! They had wonderful chemistry together and rocked it out throughout the entire session! Angela's make-up was done by Maray D and her hair - by her sister Jenna Scot of Hair Design by Jenna Marie in Fort Myers.
We started inside the laundromat where we wanted to capture the washing machines...
...and also the rolling carts used for fresh laundry...
This next image is funny...we had Angela read a magazine, while Brandon was behind her checking her out... "hey hey hey, you come here often?"
The place had an old coin machine and "Coin Chest"...
Brandon is funny...
...and sweet with his wife...
Angela, you're eyes are unreal!
We continued outside...
Oh yes, work it!
Rockstars? Ummm, I think so...
We found someone's bike and we had to use it
And, finally, another shot of beautiful Angela...
It was a ton of fun from the planning to the processing of these shots and many thanks to everyone that helped pull this through!
Much love
