Elopement in a golden field- A stylized wedding shoot


 Here it is! 
The shoot that consumed so much of my time for the past two months! This is my stylized wedding shoot! It took some amazing vendors, makeup artist, assistants and models (and tons of stress) to put this all together and I could not be happier with it! I found the perfect, most gorgeous bride, Rebecca and my best friend, Pete was brave enough to be my handsome groom! They really sold the love idea don't you think? Haha.
I put Rebecca in my vintage 60s lace dress and I handmade Pete's bow tie.
I decided on a vintage travel theme because of all the old cameras, suitcases, books and globes that I already had, and the fact that if I were to get married this is exactly how I would do it.
Field, sunlight, theme and.. all of it really. 
Of course I'm not really one for the whole marriage concept but if it looked something as romantic, close, and full of love as this, well who knows!
This shoot turned out better than expected and I have SO many photos to still go through. My hope is to submit these to wedding inspiration sites such as Green Wedding Shoes. Wish me luck!
Anyway to see more please check out my photography page here!

Busy, busy, busy!

Hello everyone and new followers! 
I was in Sf all weekend shooting jackets for Collection B and checking out the Art Academy.
So things have been crazy, but still they continue! i have a huge wedding inspired shoot on saturday to get ready for and next week I will be in LA doing a shoot everyday for 5 days. Phew! So right now I am casting models in LA and that is crazy in itself. I only need 4-5 girls and I ended up getting like 40 replies on model mayhem. Which reminds me, if you happen to be a model in LA give me a shout on my account here!
But for now, I leave you with some 60s inspiration!

Guest Post- The Moptop

Meet Tonya of The Moptop.
I'm just going to assume most of you bloggers already know her because of her recent wild popularity, especially due to becoming a finalist in Refinery 29's next big style blogger competition
She's a stylish a sweet gal with a late 60s influence!
So enjoy her Jimi Hendrix inspired look and please don't forget to vote for her!


 After thinking awhile of who to pick for my 60s style icon...I decided none other than Jimi Hendrix! He's one of my favorite musicians ever and his fashion style is so awesome. 
I loved all of the crazy colors and patterns he would wear.

60s school girl

 Peter pan collar blouse and plum jacket- Forever 21, Pleated skirt-Target, Vintage 60s bag- Rummage sale

Hello!
Okay So I am cheating here a bit and posting a look I recently did for Love Charles Vintage.
I have been crazy busy and a little depressed, driving myself insane trying to book two models for a shoot I have on March 10th. It's a very involved wedding inspired shoot with a big team of creative people. Our theme is going to be vintage travel; complete with old globes, books, suitcases and cameras.
But perhaps that most important part, the "bride" and "groom" are missing.
So I'm still on the hunt!
Wish me luck!
:)

Hello sweet readers of Mod Fox!
My name is Lauren. I'm a bashful teenage girl and the blogger behind Someone Like You. I practically swooned when Michelle asked me to guest post for her...words cannot explain how much I admire and look up to her from not only a fashion standpoint, but also a photography and writing standpoint, as well. She truly is one of my blogging crushes!

I took these photos by one of my favorite places in my town. A quiet little lake where the frogs sing sweet melodies to each other in the summer time. Where the cat tails blow on the breezy days and the sunset reflects over the water in the evening. A place where little turtles sit on a log and make kerplunk sounds as they splash into the depths of the water below; a magical place untouched by humans. I'm going to miss this place so much. I'm a senior in high school this year and soon I'll be heading off to college an hour and a half away. I'll miss this place of solitude where I come to reflect, imagine, and dream... It is a comfort to know though that although my life may take me places away from home, this lake will always be right here ❤

Thank you for having me, Michelle!
With much love, Lauren.
