pine*apple*hat


Steps for creating your own pineapple hat photograph:

Step 1.
Find a willing, beautiful model.



Step 2.
Go to grocery store and pick out the perfect pineapple, pay particular attention to the leaves.



Step 3.
Put back your selected pineapple in favor of the model's choice which is far superior - wonder how you missed it.



Step 4.
Purchase pineapple, but have a story ready for why you are purchasing a pineapple at 10:30 pm with one model and one photo assistant. The cashier WILL ask questions.



Step 5.
Cut pineapple in half while model fixes her hair and make up. Carefully hollow out the inside of the pineapple and dry it with paper towels.


Step 6.
Start trying to fix all of the now broken leaf tips that you ruined whilst cutting and hollowing it.



Step 7.
Model will finish her hair and tell you that you probably didn't need to hollow it since she doesn't have a cone head. Realize model is right. Feed her hollowed out pineapple so she stays quiet.



Step 8.
Photograph pineapple hat wearing model.
