Behind the Scenes: 1970s Bohemian Inspired Shoot with Jade McDaniel

Here are some lovely behind the scenes photos from a shoot I styled a few days ago with the lovely Jade McDaniel. I worked with photographer Lauren Freney, who's work I find so lovely! Once I get the final images I'll share with all of you. But for now, here are some pictures I snapped with Instagram and Hipstamatic!

Adorevintage.com May 2011 Lookbook

The AV Vintage May 2011 lookbook shoot was a really fun day spent with friends and a team of talented individuals. I had quite a lot of fun styling the shoot which was inspired by the 1960s (a modern take on Brigitte Bardot hair and thick lashes with coral lips). I wanted to keep the clothes very subdued with hints of cocoa and caramel here and there. You can purchase all the clothes featured in the lookbook at Adorevintage.com

I hope you love the new Lookbook images as much as I loved putting it together! Life is a bit hectic right now (I'm moving, again!) but hopefully will be able to create a June/July lookbook as I have so many ideas in my little noggin!

Last week I styled a fashion editorial shoot for Los Angeles photographer Huy Doan. We shot in this fantastic little guest house in Santa Monica filled with mid-century modern furnishings and nature found treasures.

Vintage Inspired Style Wedding Shoot with Kristin Rogers

Last weekend I had a wonderful opportunity to style a rustic wedding inspiration shoot (which I hope will grace some of my favorite wedding blogs!) This was one of the bigger production shoots I've done with so many talented people involved. What a truly fun day!



The amazing dresses are from designer Esther Jean who creates the most beautiful vintage inspired dresses and separates I've ever seen. Be sure to check out the site (an online store is coming soon!). It's Uh-Maze-Ing!

Vintage Fashion Styling: Paisley Mccollom by Caitlin Bellah

A few weeks ago I was asked to style a vintage fashion editorial with the wonderful Caitlin Bellah and Paisley McCollom from FORD. We shot close to a family pumpkin patch and farmer's market which resulted in some troubles for us as we were "guerrilla style" shooting (when you don't get permit) and got kicked out. (Oops!) But luckily we were able to get most of our shots in!


I had such fun at the shoot! Paisley is currently one of the Forever21 models and told me a bit about what it was like working for them, she also shared how surreal it was to see giant posters of her face at Target when she had a campaign with them. I'm always a bit fascinated by stories like these, but mostly fascinated that when you meet these models in person, they're so normal and approachable, not at all like their glossy alter egos.


If you're wondering why the vintage clothes look familiar... it's because most of the wardrobe is from my Adorevintage!

Behind the Scenes at the Beverly Hills Planet Salon Fashion Show

Last weekend I was hired to style a group of lovely ladies for a fashion show for Planet Salon in Beverly Hills (very exciting) and I was able to snap a few backstage photos... unfortunately I am not so skilled at taking photos when there isn't much light and when people are always moving... The experience was fantastic. It was the first time I had ever styled for an actual show instead of shoots. (And this weekend is my FILM styling debut, woo-hoo!)


The girls all had very romantic hair, so to coincide with the hair, I wanted them to look ethereal, a little fairy-like even. Some of the models felt like they were walking down the aisle instead of a runway... *hehe* I wish I had photographed more of the actual show and the people that came to see, there were a lot of fantastic outfits to be found! Perhaps another time!
