One Big Piece of Cloth...

When Jimmy found out that I’d been asked to help take photos at the Year 9 (8th grade) end-of-year celebration and dance (which the school hosts for the middle schoolers instead of a graduation ceremony), he quickly volunteered to help as well. He quickly dreamed of doing squish pics, much like we did way back in 1996 in Kathy & Phil’s living room the night before we left San Diego. He figured out where to rent the right equipment, but needed to buy a giant piece of muslin to use as a backdrop. Once he found the cloth, he realized it was too big to prep as a backdrop, so he took it to the cafeteria at work where he could stretch it out. As you can see, it’s one big piece of cloth. Will be interesting to see how he transforms the school atrium into a photo studio.
