We're back at the Monaco today to spend the night. This afternoon, I worked in a 2-hour shoot with Bulgarian-born model Elena. This time around we got a nice large-windowed room on the 3rd floor. We were perfectly situated to take in direct late-afternoon sun, which Elena's companion did a good job of reflecting into the various scenes. Believe it or not, Elena is a SQL programmer, codes in many server languages and protocols, and has worked on some huge financial web sites. Yow! Photos will be on my main blog sometime or on her portfolio at http://www.onemodelplace.com (model ID #112561).
