Haute Couture Comes to Kismet

 

 

Charlie and Phyllis’ house became home to Charlie’s cousin, photographer Jesse Untracht-Oakner for a two day fashion shoot in and around Kismet complete with entourage of pros – hair stylist, makeup, wardrobe, “digital capture” camera man and a remarkable 22 year old model. They are up and coming and hope this shoot gets them further in their careers. Nice bunch – Phyllis was exhausted afterward feeding 8 and Charlie said it reminded him of the old groupie days

Part of their shoot can be seen soon on glitteratimagazine.com

which is why we cannot show the finished pictures. But I hope you will find the work in progress as fascinating as I did.
