You may try to project a mesh on the object (using a slide projector with a
mesh slide), and take photographs from different, known, locations.

Then make a program to show two or more pictures on the screen at one time.
First connect the points that represent the same spot on the object. With
the known camera positions, you will be able to generate a set of <x,y,z>
points. Then make combinations of three points to define the mesh.

Still a load of work.

BTW

I think John's solution is preferrable when you 'mesh' your girlfriend. Love
to see the result.
