First photoshoot session + Back to Jeddah

Hmm, Can't decide where to start, I'll guess I'll just write and that's it. I've had the opportunity to meet this lovely and fun model Sophie at a cafe near my place, since i don't have a car, and had a friendly brainstorming session about the theme and the place of the photoshoot.And our final decision was to have it on Sunday (28th June).
Little Info about Sophie:
She's the Managing Director of a promotions agency in Brighton - UK called Mischief Promotions, Can't recall how old she was when she started this agency, but she's doing a very good job and its a very well-known agency in Brighton, hoping she will be famous all over UK one day.
Passed by my place at 12 on Friday then we hit the road to hour destination which was almost an hour away, we found this abandoned wrecked warehouse with a wired fence all around it and signs saying "KEEP AWAY" "NO UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL" and those lovely signs that suppose to stop you, but what was creepier for me was the saying saying "Danger Asbestos", but i guess that didn't stop us from having our session did it? OF COURSE NOT :D.

One of the snapshot that I took, reflector on the right, SB-800 mounted on Lastolite Ezybox softbox on the right (not clear).

Working with her was fun, it was a very friendly atmosphere, and she was very funny and nice for a first time photoshoot, i really had fun with her, Hoping i would start editing the pictures soon enough, too many to choose from, i just uploaded the snapshot of that session, well except for the first picture which you can see it at Sophie I.
It took me a whole flight from UK to Saudi to edit this picture and i can say that I'm Very happy with the results. WAIT FOR THE REST

Oh BTW, I'm back in Jeddah, and I'll be reachable either through Facebook, Twitter, or my Blackberry as my Saudi number(the cell phone) is turned off until further notice, I'm planning not to turn it on to tell you the truth, lets try how cool can it be :D.
