reason #549 why my job is awesome

what it this, you may ask...??

well, today i received a care package in the mail from a wonderful company called downeast basics!! they sent me this adorable sweater because i happened to mention how cute i thought their sweaters were, and that i would love to use them on a shoot...( in a post oneliza magazine's blog)

their awesome pr person, kathy (did i mention that she is awesome?) got in touch with me to say thank you, and sent me a sweater as a gift! so cool! not only is it cute, but it feels substantial, and expensive - but the price point is so low! quality, people!

now i must romance them into letting me shoot their next campaign...*cough* *cough* ;)

here are a couple more shots...
check out the cute frill detail!



check out their cute bow detail on the tag!



thanks again, kathy and everyone at downeast basics for making my day
*call me!* *wink* *seriously*

muse...

happy tuesday everyone!

today i want to share with you my favorite model, hailey clauson. she is the 14 year old (yes, i said 14!!!!!!) bombshell with FORD, from right here in la, and i know she is gonna be the next big thing!











these are just a few images that i, myself have taken of hailey. she is such a great girl, has a huge, hilarious personality, and is a real pro. i love her, and can't wait to see what she does in the future!

promo cards

today, i am gonna start working on my new promo cards...i am getting inspiration from all over the place, and trying to create something really beautiful, and of course, MEMORABLE. i think a lot of photogs waste their money creating something that will be thrown in the trash, so it's important to grab your viewer!

i will keep you posted on the outcome, and who i use to print, etc.

stay tuned!
