I have chosen a new destination for the first journey of the season, a place where I have never worked before: Andalusia, the southernmost region of Spain. However, we will not be travelling to the coast, which is completely overcrowded and spoiled, unfortunately; instead, we shall be visiting a few very beautiful and hidden locations further inland, which I found a year ago when I performed an extensive location search of the area. I was particularly attracted to several valleys in the mountains, with cool streams nurturing lush vegetation.

I planned our journey for the beginning of May because at that time of year there are hardly any tourists in Andalusia. What's more, it should be fairly certain that the streams and rivers will have plenty of water; during the long, dry summer they tend to dry out almost completely. For this journey two models from Budapest have been booked, Beatrice and Marion. This time Timea will be responsible for the make-up; alongside that task she will also assist me on the shooting sessions and help with the video recordings.

We are all meeting up in Madrid, since we can get convenient direct flights there. And from Madrid we will be able to reach our destinations in Andalusia without any difficulty by car, in just a few hours. Of course, while I was planning the trip I had no way of knowing that this time a very annoying problem would crop up, leaving me with only one model instead of two - but more of that later!
