I thought that was her, that soup spoon gave it away. Her old profile photo was a whole lot better.

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

I may be dumb, but I ain't stupid: I won't touch that one with a 10' pole!

Heck, we can't even get them to send her to ECLSTS so we could meet her!

I'm really beginning to hate that photo! The things you do for your job!

 

Just got back from the convention. Got to meet Ian and his lovely wife--and see he already posted a photo.

You guys crack me up. You obviously haven't seen some of my earlier "work" (photos). I've been in probably a dozen different photo shoots. Ok, I wasn't wearing a jump suit in any of them. . .

I don't see what you have to be worried about Rene.... My wife has avoided the camera for several years while dressed for work -normally she wears a white wig and long black robes. However underneath there is her normal pink attire, boots and skirt. Thus she can "pop out" of her work wear go shopping in the lunch hour and then return to court.

The only pictures that I have of her in work wear are the official ones where she was presented with her wig and gown.

The best one I have of her other than one of the wedding shots -is the one were Matthew has applied "sun block" to mummys face in order for her not to get sun burned. It is of the type that is initially blue then turns clear, by the time I had grabbed a camera most of it had turned -but there was enough of it for a wonderful "blackmail" picture....

I think there better shots and I KNOW it was not the same photographer who did you in the jump suit.

Really those are great shots!!!! Smile [:)]
