Recently shot my friend Jason Dowd while out in LA. He's an incredible musician and is working on his modeling portfolio right now. We shot a bit around his house, then out and about in LA... the areas to shoot are limitless. Even after dark when we had zero lighting but was able to find the raddest places. He was so fun to work with and I think I was laughing 100% of the time. ha! So excited to see him KILL it in this industry.
Last month I did a shoot for up and coming NEXT model Gretta Solie in West Hollywood. My amazing friend Alexa Younger and I collaborated on this shoot...her on the art direction/hair & makeup and us both on the styling. It turned out to be one of my fav most recent shoots..especially to work with Gretta, she has QUITE the future in this industry. Kinda obsessed with her look...and versatility!
Wellll this is a crazy post for me to do. I do so many different shoots and with each one write a little something about the people that I'm photographing..I have so much content for this one it could be a book. Because it's my BROTHER and his beautiful fiance! Crazy that we're in THAT season of life now...seems like it was just a few days ago that I was chasing him around the house fighting over a calendar & about exactly when his birthday was! ha! But now he's gone off figured out really when his birthday is and a wife as well! So grown up;) He moved out to California last year and about 2 months later called me telling me he had met this amazing girl playing volleyball and they went bowling together...soon after they knew they wanted to get married! Me being the protective older sister was like whooaaa slow it down...but once I met Kimmy and got to know her over this year I fell in love too! They fit each other perfectly, have the EXACT same sense of humor(not sure how that happened, clearly a miracle) and have a beautiful relationship they have created centered around God and amazing purpose. I'm inspired to see it. So excited for their wedding coming up next month in Texas!! Love you both!
I headed out to Vancouver earlier last month to help shoot a wedding with the amazing Jamie Delaine! We drove, took a ferry, and drove some more to the northwest part of Vancouver Island for the most beautiful rainy foggy wedding in the little town of Tofino. The couple, Joanna + Alex were super rad and had amazing taste in all the details...! Makes for some fun times shooting! The wedding was supposed to be on the beach but because it rained about 2-3 inches the day before it had to be moved inside but it was no less beautiful with panoramic views of the ocean inside a warm cinnamon roll smelling lodge. It was so cozy yet spectacular with the views! I'm so blessed to be able to travel and visit my friends plus incorporating doing what I love... here are some of my favorites from the day! Hope you enjoy!
