Even
 with
 only
 one
 days
 noJce,
 Peri

was
  able
  to
  transform
  her
  unique

studio
  into
  something
  absolutely

magical.”

 Once
 we
 all
 arrived,
 it
 took

only
  about
  15
  minutes
  to
  put
  up
  a

few
  finishing
  touches
  like
  the
  giant

playing
  cards
  that
  Mandy
  created,

some
 of
 the
 other
 props,
 set
 up
 the

tea
  set
  and
  arrange
  all
  the
  chairs,

she
 said.

  “Within
  no
  Jme,
  we
  were

in
  Wonderland,
  thanks
  to
  her

(Peri)”,
  Angela
  said,
  adding
  that
  at

the
  tea
  party
  shoot,
  the
  atmosphere

really
  resembled
  a
  party,
  Angela

said.

 “We
 pumped
 up
 the
 music

and
 danced
 around
 unJl
 it
 was
 Jme

to
 strike
 a
 pose,”
 Angela
 laughed.
 “It

was
  fun
  watching
  everyone’s

character
  come
  to
  life
  throughout

the
  whole
  makeup
  and
  wardrobe

process.

  It
  seemed
  as
  once
  we
  got

into
  our
  clothes,
  had
  our
  make
  up

and
 hair
 done,
 each
 of
 us
 seemed
 to

instantly
  become
  our
  specific

characters.”

to
  having
  fun
  with
  our
  various

supply
  of
  weapons
  of
  knives
  and
  a

zombie
  killing
  machete,
  we
  each

became
  a
  part
  of
  wonderland,
  she

said.

 “It
 was
 even
 fun
 when
 aler

a
 couple
 of
 wardrobe
 malfuncJons,
 I

put
 on
 my
 creaJvity
 cap
 once
 again,

and
 with
 the
 help
 of
 Peri
 the
 studio

owner,
  we
  created
  preay
  much
  an

enJre
  wardrobe
  for
  one
  model
  and

put
  part
  of
  another’s
  wardrobe

together
 within
 the
 maaer
 of
 a
 few

minutes.

  Luckily,
  I
  always
  come

prepared
  with
  extra
  everything
  and

work
 best
 under
 pressure.”

  Once
  we
  were
  in
  our
  makeup

and
  wardrobe
  and
  were
  ready
  to

start
  shooJng,
  the
  brother
  and

sister
  team
  of
  Jenna
  Ulrich
  and

Samuel
  Pigeon,
  were
  there
  to
  not

only
  to
  get
  hands
  on
  experience
  of

being
 on
 locaJon,
 they
 were
 a
 huge

asset
  to
  this
  Tea
  Party
  being
  a

success.

 They
 even
 helped
 finish
 up

last
  minute
  sewing
  of
  wardrobe

items
  made
  by
  Rusty
  himself.
  They

stood
  on
  the
  sidelines
  helping
  us

models
  with
  posing
  ideas,
  throwing

decks
  of
  cards
  at
  us
  for
  a
  couple

shots,
  helped
  with
  lighJng,
  and

helped
  with
  pufng
  finishing

touches
  on
  the
  set.

  Overall,
  Jenna

and
 Samuel
 were
 a
 huge
 support
 to

us
  all.

  I
  honestly
  don’t
  know
  how

we
 would
 we
 have
 managed
 to
 pull

everything
  off
  without
  them.

Sewing,
  lighJng,
  set,
  ideas,
  these

two
 were
 priceless
 to
 our
 success.
