Not only was it the start of spring break this weekend in Rocky Point, we also kicked off the second Girls of Rocky Point calendar girl competition to a packed house at Chango’s Bar & Grill.
We took off from Phoenix Friday evening, with a convoy of photographers, models, hip-hop artists and assistants, en route to Puerto Penasco. We arrived just after dark and made a stop for some post road trip brews before heading to our beach front casa.
Bright and early Saturday morning we headed out to the Malecon with the models for a photo shoot and to generate some more attention for the evening’s competition. Everywhere we stopped to shoot people were asking about the calendar and were trying to get the models into their shops by offering them free gigantic shrimp, free “fake” purses, or whatever they happened to be selling. It’s always a good time. Near the end of our shoot, Serious and R-Vel met up with us for some lunch at a restaurant overlooking the Sea of Cortez.
We followed up lunch with an afternoon of shooting on the beach and in the water just outside our casa, right up until sunset. Watch for more photos from the shoots this evening on the Girls of Rocky Point website. I’ll also be posting some on my Flickr photostream as I get them processed.
After our group had some dinner at Chango’s, the venue started to fill, the house band went on stage and we began setting up for the contest. Serious and R-Vel kicked off the event with a few sets, then were joined by Myann Rowland, of MYN Party Online, to co-host the contest and introduce the girls as they took the stage.
You can check out the contest photos over on the Girls of Rocky Point website. There’s another calendar girl contest next week, it’s not too late to sign-up!
