Photo Shoot in LA

Had to go to LA on Friday for a Baylor University photo shoot. Angela Kinsey, an actress in "The Office" TV show, is a Baylor alum, and part of my ad agency's before and after ad campaign for Baylor. Our mission was to fly into LA, rent a van, pick up whatever props we could get our hands on, and then shoot Angela at her house, staying there for only 2 hours. And, those 2 hours included other shots for a Baylor magazine.

I travelled with Sparky Witte, from account services in our agency. Sparky drove the rental van in LA traffic, no small feat in itself. The prop house in West Hollywood was amazing. Everything you can think of crammed into 4 Wal Mart-sized warehouses, from giant Easter Island heads to a full sized church confessional, to office equipment from multiple genres. Fun times.

Angela was very accommodating, allowing us access to her house and taking our direction and running with it.

Here are some shots from LA. Some outtakes from the shoot will come soon, after we get the images from the photographer.



Easter Island heads for rent.



The prop house had absolutely anything you could imagine, like mounted fish and bull horns.



Any kitchen item (or whole kitchen) you need is there.



An actual London Underground subway map.
