Photo Shoot

Even though it was the school holidays , on Friday we  had a photo shoot  down at the house that has all of the flags of the countries that are competing in the world cup rugby. This is for an add campaign  for the ANZ bank and the world cup rugby. We think this is pretty exciting. The photos are going to be used for posters which are going in the ANZ bank and they took pictures for bill boards which are going to be used at the airports.
