Kings

Last Saturday Steve and I went to see our favor band (we have a couple songs that are our songs...) It was an amazing concert and we had a great time. They are just as good live which is always a true testament to a great band.

Rough Sea's

Yesterday was an interest day. The crew and I jumped on the Catalina Express (with a minor fluke) after arriving we made our way over to our final destination, "Blue Steel". An 82ft sunseeker predator yacht. The shoot was thrilling and I can't wait to see the final version in EXOTIC Adventure and Travel Magazine.

EXOTIC Behind the Scenes Winter 2009 Issue Video

Video from some of the feature editorials that will be in the Winter 2009 Issue of EXOTIC Adventure and Travel Magazine.

Katie Heart

My newest client Katie Heart is a pop star on the rise. I always love getting involved with projects during the ground work phase and providing any input I can with branding and marketing. Katie is definitely taking steps in the right director and when you have talents, looks and a great personality to back it up success is not to far behind as long as you maintain your drive and positive outlook.

This week we will be doing a photo shoot for Katie for her new myspace and website. Katie's manager Samantha contacted me to help with wardrobe and The Couture House was happy to pull together some of our resources to make Katie's shoot rock star quality.

They had already taken the biggest step and booked photographer Bradford Rogne, who has shot lots of wonderful celebrity clients. The shoot will take place on location at Rogne Studio and on the streets of downtown LA.

Our next step was wardrobe, so I set up a fitting at Feature Boutique in Brentwood. We picked out three great looks for Katie and here are two of the mood boards I put together.

Our next step was to visit the wonderful Aubrey from Studio DNA Salon, we discussed the look and preparation before the shoot. DNA will be providing us with one of their top Stylist and Artist Rada for the shoot.

Look for another post from the shoot after Thursday!! Happy Photo Shooting!!!!

1100 Wilshire Photo Shoot

Its very exciting as a Stylist and Company to build my relationships with all those involved in photo shoots and really develop a great working team. This photo shoot was my second time working with Photographer Robert Valenzuela, which does beautiful lighting. However, on a muggy LA day the best lighting in the world can not remove the smog, I wish!!! Roberto was able to still do an amazing job!! More photos coming soon.

The beautiful models provided by Sills Models, models Kelley (male), Tiffany, Shannon and Cheryl. Stacey sills brought the whole team of camera's and crew to document the shoot. Can't wait to see that footage.

Hair and makeup provided by the wonderful Studio DNA Salon, owners Danny and Aubrey, their lovely Rosie was their to do makeup and hair as well. Our location was provide by Danny and Aubrey which was amazing! Downtown loft living would be so cool if I was working in downtown LA but I like being near the beach.

Wardrobe provide by The Couture House. Dresses Be Seduced, Hats Ariane, Jewelry Linda Rose and DNA South African collection. Which is currently 40% off at both Salons.

One of my favorite up and coming Sills models - Morgan, this 16 year old is one to watch and book!!! I had such a great time at the shoot and I loved how the photos and wardrobe turned out. Everyone was great to work with and Morgan is the sweetest young woman who I hope is never changed by the hardships of the industry. Stay true to yourself!!!
