Preparation

They had to go through a lot of preparation while posing for the shoot. Emily described, “We had to put sticks into my bald cap and put a ring of grass on it because the bees couldn’t grip onto the cap as it was soft plastic.” “Then my husband emptied the bees onto the ground and we just stood there and waited. We put the queen bee on my head and they swarm up onto wherever the queen is, and that was my head.”
