We came up a model or two short on the second day, so Lauren invited a friend in -- the adorable Adrianne (much to ALL our delight)!

A friend of Josh's, Angela brought her A-game to the event.

The "ever-popular" glimpse behind the curtain during the event.

Exceptional MUA, delight in front of the lens, and all-around sweet person ... Lauren! Even if she *does* taunt me on my smoking and copy what I order for dinner! LOL

I literally snapped two frame of Mandy figuring I'd work with her more on day two, but it wasn't meant to be.

The day before the event, dK and I had the pleasure of shooting with the delightful Nicole Gray. Note there's some nudity here so if that irks ya don't look in. ;-)

The statuesque and stunning Nonna.

Things that caught my eye before and after the event.

A sidetrip to see a launch with Alan, dK and JT. All systems were go on this bucket list sighting.

I only had the opportunity to work with the charming Tiffney briefly this trip ... but OH what a joy!
