May showers brings... Muddy Boots!

Range Design called Michael to create a unique shot:

looking UP from inside a puddle!

It looks like a sunny day inside Indresano Studio.

This boot's really strung up.

Stylist Bonnie Anderson is on hand to 'make it rain'.

A lot goes into being a puddle-
Not a piece of equipment was spared.

It wasn't easy for Michael to allow this much dirt in his studio,

but look how it paid off!

The Science of a Photo Shoot

Finally! There was a reason why high school chemistry existed, other than to lower student GPAs and cause schools across the country to be evacuated,  as Michael Indresano Studio went back to CHEM 101 and morphed into a research lab for a few days.

Fortunately this was not shot using film and processing it using chemicals, but we could have pulled it off by just going into the kitchen and creating our own darkroom.

After being sworn to Manhattan Project levels of secrecy, Michael and the rest of the team donned white lab coats and methodically created some wonderful images that the client was very happy with - and yes, the studio is still in one piece.

Hair and makeup artist, Heidi Wells, is careful not let any stray powder mix with the solution in the beakers.

There is no such thing as a "strange light" in a photo studio.

The entire creative team looks over the images.

Sara Mills-Broffman: Super Stylist

 Stylist Sara Mills-Broffman does everything
from shorelines to campsites.

 We had her create the perfect sand dune for a sunny getaway.

 Of course, the sand needs to be perfect- down to the last grain.

 

For a change of gears, Sara stands in to help our model
hold up a kayak.

Ever see anything more in need of a steaming than a tent?

 

 Luckily, we can kick back at the end of the day and relax with some perfectly placed cans of soda.

CBM & Onset

The studio saw lots of foam recently on a shoot with Cambridge BioMedical Group and Onset Therapeutics.

Who would know how to perfect a dollop? Food Stylist
Maria Del Mar Sacasa!

Maria, are you going to clean this mess?

It's getting there...

 Perfecto!

 

 New York hand model, Desiree, on set for the next shot.

 Digital Tech, Robyn Maguire, gives this fabric a little breeze.
