I'm sending out a huge thank you to my model, Dyann Green! She not only had to deal with Prince Charming cancelling on us at the last minute, but she's allergic to cats (I have two) and had to swig down benedryl during the shoot. Not to mention the dress she wore weighed about 30lbs!! Also, I paid a small fortune to rent it, but felt a cheesy costume would break this shot. I sure hope this does well in the challenge!

Post challenge:
Wow!! 4th place isn't too shabby! Thank you all for your wonderful comments! I'm happy that this placed high enough to be on my profile page.

Outtakes:


Post post challenge:
Pretty much in shock - happy to win a ribbon but sad it was at the expense of the 1st place being DQed.
