*Shoot @ Semaphore, Adelaide with Tanty Lovell!
Well, apart from sleeping in an hour due to the clocks going forward an hour; the shoot was a huge success! Gemma's Mum and Dad came down to Semaphore with her Brother's dog 'Lilly' so she could pose with her- its all in the family!
The weather was wonderful, there were plenty of observers, and comments to boot - Gemma's favourite was from two little boys on the jetty "Whoa - she's a lady, it's a lady!", securing her thoughts that on a usual Sunday morning - people generally don't see people all frocked up with bright red lipstick on!
Gemma can't wait to see the post-produced images; and she can assure you, they'll be worth the wait!! <3 Thanks Tanty - Gemma Vendetta had a blast with you! xx
