Super Sexy Swimsuit Model Shoot!

I received an email on Saturday requesting us to do a shoot for two European swimsuit models staying down in Weligama as they travel around SE Asia. They wanted the shoot to happen the next day, Sunday, or Monday at the latest as they were leaving Sri Lanka on Tuesday. How’s that for short notice!

They found us on Google. Yea! for Google and for doing business over the internet!

After several emails back and forth, we worked out a time on Monday (as Lipton was busy with an all-day shoot on Sunday) and the price of the shoot. Everyone was happy. Lipton had a wedding video shoot to do on Monday evening and I knew he’d be tired working from 6:30am until Midnight, but I saw pictures of the models on the covers of Playboy Germany and I knew he would love taking their photos!

You look at the photos he took and tell me if you think he loved doing the shoot!

Spoiler alert: This is a swimsuit shoot! With bikini models! Oh, and some yoga shots...

Brunette beauty and blonde beauty.

Comfortable in front of the camera.

They have the best butts!

No wonder they can wear bikinis!

Janni and Sylvi are also surf models.

They love the sun.

Girls know how to have fun!!

More fun!

Now the yoga...

I never looked that good doing yoga!

Well, maybe when I was their age!

Now for cooling off.

I love this shot!

Such great colours!

Sweeeet!

The final shot of the day!

Does Lipton look like a happy photographer???

WOW! Bursting With Pride!

Lipton on a zip line, filming.

It’s either the caffeine I imbibed this morning, or I’m having a heart attack, or I am simply bursting with pride! I think it’s the pride thing.

Lipton (as in Lipton Jayawickrama – remember that name!) worked on a commercial video for Borderlands Sri Lanka, for Annoyboy Pictures. He was the Director of Photography for the film and did all of the shots, except the underwater whale shots. He was gone for several days, up in Kittugalle and down south in Mirissa, doing this project and I had an idea of what it was about, but when I saw the video this morning I was BLOWN AWAY!

Now it’s YOUR turn to be blown away!

Enjoy!

We Found Her!

Over the last 13 years here in Sri Lanka, I’ve had 2 super, fabulous housemaids. For no fault of theirs or mine, they had to leave. Sad days, both. There has also been a huge lot of bad ones.

Putting up with less than good housemaids made it easier to have none. Which we did for at least six months. But with weddings lasting until late night, it was important for us to have a housekeeper who lived-in to watch the house and more importantly to take care of Toby, our best friend, 50k Rhodesian Ridgeback.

We were hesitant to go to an agency as we’ve had bad luck with them in the past, but one agency was recommended by three known people who are super happy with their housekeepers.

So, we gave it a try. Once at the agency, they introduced us to a young, 27-year-old girl. Her English wasn’t up to snuff and so I pretty much nixed her. As we went home and discussed it, we decided to try her for a week. She came that day, prepared to stay.

From the first minute when Pavi patted hello to Toby, I knew she was good. She wasn’t afraid of him and he immediately liked her!

The first meal Pavi cooked was way better than even I could cook. And the presentation was super! She cleaned better than anyone we’ve had before. Way way better! She made pumpkin soup yesterday (that I’ve been dying to have) and it was so delicious! She cooks without oil and doesn’t use heavy coconut milk powder like others before her. And each day she makes salads! I’ve lost 2kilos in the month she’s been here.

Tomorrow she goes to her home on holiday and tonight, she told me in her English that I can now understand, that she’s going to cook meals for us to eat while she’s gone. How great is that!

We will miss her cheery face while she’s gone. Toby will definitely miss her!

Her chicken is NOT over cooked!

Her salads are just the best!

Pavi even makes desserts. But not too often.

She once made Potato & Powdered Sugar Cookies!

Toby's new BFF!
