Polaroid SLR 680 SE
Polaroid Type 779
Los Angeles, CA

i shot behind the scenes stills at a fashion shoot in los angeles. sadly, i was mostly relegated to shooting on a digital Nikon D80, but after several hours of snapping god knows how many shots and watching 4 other people run around with digital cameras, i decided it was indeed time to scratch that analog itch.

meet claire. a super nice girl that hollywood hasn't yet corrupted. she, like so many others, is an aspiring actress and model. disturbing though was when we compared ages.

claire: "how old are you?"

drew: "26"

claire: "guess how old i am?"

(uh-oh. that's never good.)

drew: "uuuhhh, 22?"

claire: "no, guess again."

(gross)

drew: "older or younger?"

claire: "younger."

drew: "uhhhhh...17?"

claire: "16"

drew: "wow...i have to go."

give claire a couple of years. she'll do very well for herself in this town.
