Retro photo shoot #4

The day had finally arrived! The photo shoot with the ‘57 Cadillac Coupe DeVille!!! This is our “Bad Girl” theme - denim capri pants, 50’s sunglasses, cigarettes, spray paint, vandalized locations, checkered racing flags and of course, the Cadillac.

Jo an I had so much fun and Paul Vanzella, the car’s owner, had a ball too. Why wouldn’t he? He got to drive us ladies around ;o)

Here’s a few “behind the scenes” photos that Paul took for us (click to enlarge):

John’s Hot Rod Show - Rain, rain and more rain…

Yes, we went to the Hot Rod show on the weekend…

No, I didn’t take any photos…

Yes, the rockabilly bands were fantastic…

No, there weren’t over 2,500 cars there that day…

Yes, we got saturated…

No, it wasn’t as packed with people as I had imagined…

Yes, I can’t wait for next year’s event so that I CAN take photos…

On a better note, my Christmas cards have been selling well!
