Photoshoot : My Elise in a Model Contest

TopGirl - suvetüdruku finaal (it's in Estonian but just click on the photos or use Google Translate)

They have some contest here where they pick "regular" girls and take photos, and then at the end of the competition (which lasts a few months), they get some type of prize.

Anyway, they asked my Elise to be in it, and the girl they chose for the photo shoot is also named Elise.

Photos were taken on the top floor of a parking garage in the center of Tallinn, Estonia. It started to rain lightly during the shoot so I put on the soft top.

I stood around and made sure that when she "leaned" on the car, she wasn't actually putting her weight on it.

My cars is a 2005 Federal edition, with a single-type certification for the EU. For the front plate, I had a company print up a sticker with the relevant information, sized exactly to fit on the front mounting point. So far I haven't been stopped, though technically it's illegal here.

i dont care what the writing says.

i will say the model is very beautiful, and i like the boots, but that black baggy dress needs to go for something that shows her off much better; or just get rid of any cloths and keep the boots. either works.

Yeah the dress was not a good choice on her part. They tried to do various shots where she was leaning over, but the midriff section of her dress was a bit loose so she just came out looking pregnant.

Winter is fast approaching. Maybe we'll arrange another photoshoot when the snow hits. I'll have the hardtop and Pirelli SnowSports on then.
