REO IN JAPAN I 2023

One of my favorite shoots to date! In my absolute favorite place on earth, Japan. I connected with Reo, a Japanese model, on Instagram, and we set up this photoshoot in Shinjuku. Location was perfect and working with Reo was super fun. Fun fact, we had to rely on Google Translate for communication during this entire shoot, but I was still able to direct and get images that we both loved! I often demonstrate poses for my models so it works out either way. So happy with the results!

EIRENE IN THE FALL // NEW YORK CITY

I am so in love with how these photos turned out, the location and weather were absolutely perfect…well except that Eirene was freezing and doing jumping jacks to stay warm (lol). Also, this is a day that was supposed to rain hence how cloudy it was but made for perfect moody photos and we got no rain! Also, no people made it easy to do an outfit change in public hehe. I loved working with Eirene, I am super grateful to connect with amazing people doing what I love - but enough about that. Let’s check out this Queen who totally served and helped me deliver these.

STUDIO SESSION WITH MADI // MIAMI,FL

Hello and welcome! Thank you for taking the time to be here :) Firstly, shooting with Madison is always super fun. I love how she’s always willing to go along with my creative ideas (Thank you Madi for letting me spray you with water, sorry about the mascara in your eye….lol. I also want to say I am obsessed with the wet hair look….thinking of just doing this look for all shoots….JK hehe. This studio session was in my very own living room right by a large sliding glass door (natural light is always a blessing) and having a model to worth with obv hehe. Well, that’s all for now…. So, what did you think? If you enjoyed this set go over to my Instagram and leave a comment!

IZZY IN RED // MIAMI,FL

Here is to my first shoot of 2021! Working with Izzy is always so much fun and we both agree shooting with me is like a workout lol holding poses a little too long sometimes (sorry hehe) I love the planning process with Izzy because it always flows so well from choosing the outfits to the make up (She slays the make up…always). How stunning is this red suit though? Would you believe it was a thrift find? from the thrift Queen herself (Izzy loves to thrift) I had scouted this location in Hollywood, FL long ago and finally got to shoot here! Luckily there were no crowds (we are still amidst a pandemic here) Well, hope you all like this set and please stay safe!

MADISON // SUNRISE, FL

Oh hi there! Want to know why this shoot was definitely different from others….because it was amidst a worldwide pandemic, you know COVID-19. We felt like we were sneaking out into the town hehe (nervous laugh). It's not common to find a rooftop parking lot totally empty! and we didn't get kicked out of any location (also common when shooting) I guess that’s what happens when you leave your house during Quarantine….which you shouldn’t, I am not promoting it. In case you are wondering, yes I was wearing a mask :D If you made it here, Thank you for reading! Grateful I can continue to create with amazing people and share with you! Be safe friends and enjoy these Images.

IZZY // COCONUT CREEK, FL

Really glad I get to create with people that sometimes I just meet the day of the shoot. Izzy was amazing, from the moment she contacted me we instantly connected and started sharing ideas. She has everything you can think of for a shoot, probably even more than me (style queen haha) made my job so easy! Also want to point out that the tennis racket used goes for 50+ online (used) and I found it for 3 bucks at a thrift store! For a while now I wanted to do a fashion / sports editorial style shoot and here it is. Hope you enjoy these!

MADISON // DEEERFIELD BEACH, FL

Is it even a photoshoot if you don't get kicked out of at least one location? Madison and I were getting into the zone with the first few photos when a security guard drove up telling us we couldn't be there. Unexpected to me we left to plan b location. However, I was determined for the shoot to happen at the warehouse we got kicked out of. Luckily Madison agreed we would return to this “prohibited” place. An hour or so went by while shooting elsewhere and we headed back. I noticed the security guard was still there but in his car so I drove to the next parking lot while Madison changed all while holding my camera hehe. I parked the car and we both ran out to quickly continue our session (haha) It felt like a Marathon but we managed to get a few more shots. A Back up plan is always a must! (I think so anyway) even though driving around looking for locations is also fun. While we didn't get to explore the initial location like planned, I was so happy with how it all turned out! Here are the images with no noticeable desperation on Madisons face, of us sneaking around looking out for a security guard. I love what I do and clients who are always up for some fun, perhaps even more fearless than me :D
