I had a great time at the Thunder Girls Media day shoot on Tuesday.

We were there to take pictures of all of the Thunder Girls for marketing materials throughout the year, the Thunder's website, autograph cards and stuff like that. It was a really tough, long day in the trenches. Ok, not really. ;)

It was a long shoot but I don't know if you can call it that tough. Shooting pictures of pretty girls is not exactly manual labor. You just point your camera in the direction of the dancer and as long as you don't screw it up they tend to come out looking pretty good.

Even Old Hat's illustrious Owner and Creative Director Zac Logsdon managed to get in on the action.

I wish I had more of these pictures for you but things were a bit too busy to get a lot of setup shots.  I'm glad the Thunder have some behind the scenes stuff from Tuesday's Thunder Girl Media Day...because I have none.

It's usually really difficult for me to get pictures of the setup and other things when I'm shooting non-stop for hours, so unfortunately you'll have to check it out over at thunder.nba.com.

View their behind-the-scenes pics here. And check out the behind-the-scenes video here.

I make an appearance in the video and give out great photographic direction like, "Move a little left...Chin up just a bit...You're a tiger!" You know, the stuff that really motivates models.

A big thank you to all of the girls, who were a pleasure to work with. And of course thanks to the Thunder organization, who are always a great client to collaborate with. You can follow the Thunder Girls on twitter here and check them out on Facebook here.
