I knew there was going to be rain but I didn’t expect 1″ for the day, and I didn’t expect it all to fall during the shoot. Forecast was for 54F, we got 45F.
Thankfully after several years of racing, Suede is rather used to suffering on a bicycle. By some minor miracle no gear was destroyed while creating these images. It was an educational experience for sure.
Lessons learned…
- You can never have too many garbage bags
- Rig up a harness to help ensure any unexpected maneuvers don’t toss the shooter (moi) out of the back of the truck
- You can never have too many towels
- A truck canopy would be handy
- With proper preparation (and luck) a shoot like this can be accomplished without being electrocuted
