Sexy Models With My Cornsnake! Professional Photoshoot!!

I am SO excited to show you all these!

If you recall, in February I mentioned that I had been asked to bring my corn snake, Sydney, to a photo shoot for my university's annual (and humongous) charity fashion show. At the beginning of March is when the shoot took place, and it went over very smoothly - she did wonderful with the models, and only fell once.

These photos were the best of the best, and showcased on a jumbo screen the size of an entire theatre wall for the whole audience to see, as the models came on stage!
And no, none of these people are me ;) although they did take a couple candid shots of Syd and I together. But I have yet to receive them.

(In order from my least to most favourite)... and fun fact, for the last photo I was standing off to the side and she was stretching out to me. I think she needed a break :eek:

Thanks for looking!

Cool pics, did any of the model have any trouble wrapping their head around holding her?
Looks like he gave the man some tummy tickles with her tongue! :p
 
Thanks! And the reason these models were chosen was BECAUSE they said they would be comfortable holding her. I wouldn't want anyone in a position of discomfort or fear... for their own sake, but especially for Sydney's. My biggest worry was having someone freak out and throw her.

Funny enough, the male model - who seemed the most excited and thought it was so cool - was actually the most nervous when we got down to it. She actually did fall off of him once... I felt horrible, because it was the only time I looked away (I had to move out of the way for one of those light-reflecting umbrella type things). She tried to slide down his back muscles, but didn't have anything to hang on to! She was completely fine of course.

The only model who had never seen or held a snake before (the female with the green eye makeup) was actually the most comfortable and took the best photos! She really fell in love with Syd. She couldn't stop talking about her for the rest of the shoot. Sometimes she still messages me asking how she is ;) so cute!
 
I think this thread would get the attention it deserves if titled differently! Would you like me to change it?
 
Awesome! I've been really looking forward to seeing these photos and they turned out so nicely. I would love if I could have my snakes involved in events like this.
 
Thanks everyone! It just so happened that I've had a few classes with one of the organizers for the fashion show and photo shoot, and I was one of the only people anyone from knew of that has snakes!
Fortunately Sydney was exactly the type of snake they wanted to photograph as well. Very visually appealing (eg. very "snake-like") without stealing the show from the models. :)
