Supermercado: LPM Mini Lookbook April

So what do you do with two hours, a model and a photographer on a Thursday afternoon? Have a photo shoot at the Latino grocery store of course!  For our April mini lookbook we "invaded" our local MegaMart to shoot neons and brights---- imagine a modern day bad ass Chiquita Banana in 6-inch platforms from Solestruck.  We wanted to shoot earlier but were delayed and ended up getting there during prime grocery time... I wish we had a photo of the looks on everyone's faces as we sent flashes everywhere with our giant umbrella while Marcela posed with mangos.  The men of Megamart gave us lots of positive "words of encouragement" while the women... well lets just say they weren't too pleased.  The look on one woman's face was as if to say "Umm, can I please just get my produce and get out of here?"  Needless to say, it was definitely the most exciting event to ever take place at that supermercado and I'm glad we were a part of it ;)

Thank you to Marshall for photographing/editing the "fruits" of our labor :)
