I've been to Los Angeles again, but this time I was lazier then usual :-). A few days before my trip I was feeling like .... oh, again another long trip, I want to stay in my new house and just work on my website and spend my time with my friends. It is very hard to explain exactly what I was feeling before this long trip. Sometimes I wish I could just stop time, but ......
I just hate this long trip but of course when I get there everything goes great and smooth.
The day before I left town, my mom visited me and we played chess. When we said goodbye, I could see in her eyes that she is sad that again I'm going away. She's scared that something bad will happen down the road :-).
I arrived in Vienna on time, but there was such bad whether, too much snow, that all flights were delayed :-( Which meant that I missed my connecting flight from Munich to Los Angeles. I had to wait another 5 hours in Munich. And it wasn't a direct flight either! Only to San Francisco, then from there another to Los Angeles. I arrived in LA about 10.00 p.m. :-( I was so tired, but I had the next day off so I got time to rest.
On the plane I met some interesting people. I had a seat next to an Italian movie director :-) His name is Gabriele Muccion and he was going to LA to finish some new movie with Will Smith (Men in Black 1997). So we had a great conversation. He was such a nice person and he gave me his cell number and told me that if I have any problems in LA I should give him a call and he will help me, that was nice.
My work in Los Angeles was great, again I worked for Shirley of Hollywood (lingerie company). I shot with them for three days, for their new catalogue and their Hot Lingerie collection. David (photographer) had his B-day on Monday so I was invited for a nice dinner with everyone. I was thinking about my best friend Ivona, because she had her B-day the same day and I was not around to celebrate with her :-(( but we exchanged lots of text messages and we finally celebrated on Sunday night, when I got back from LA :-)
I have one bit of bad news. Mark Daughn of Mystique had to cancel the planned Africa shoot in May :-( He called Nissa in LA and told her that he was informed about the unstable situation there and so now he is going to have to reschedule everything. He was afraid to go there with the whole group and with about 6 -10 beautiful models.
But it's not all bad because when one door closes another one opens :) Because the Africa shoot is postponed I now have time to go back to the US for the next Foto Fantasy Camp. And that's great because I can shoot with David again for FFC and just few days later I can shoot again for Shirley :-) THAT IS GREAT!
On one of my days off I visited www.bombaycompany.com They are located in every department store :-) I love this shop. I bought lots of things there. Two wonderful candlesticks, one fireplace clock, a few small things and one new chess set. But the chess set was so heavy that Nissa had to lend me her bag, there was no room in mine :-). At the airport I had to pay an extra $25 because the chess set was so terribly heavy, but in the end I'm happy that I bought them :-)
Next week Wednesday 22.02 I will go to Germany for just one day's shooting for German band AMOS. I will shoot a CD cover from them, so cross fingers for me :-)
love your
