Blue Hawaii

                                                              Dress- Target, vintage shoes and belt

 I got this dress because the print reminded me of a 60s Hawaiian dress, granted the style is a bit more modified 40s with its cinched waist and button detail, but the colours and tropical print sold me on this piece.

Of course this print make me think of the 1961 movie, Blue Hawaii staring Elvis.

 Firstly, this is NOT me. 

I'm a photographer, so I shoot this session. 

My model was the lovely Christine, who I contacted when I initially had this concept for a natural, creek type shoot. I really wanted a berry crown so my best friend Bibbles (Bless him and his great ideas) ordered this from a local florist. Alicia Hathaway was my AMAZING makeup artist and I highly recommend you check her out here.

Anyway this shoot came together almost exactly like I had it in my mind, which as you fellow photographers know, is very rare. This is my favorite set by far and it's only encouraging me to keep shooting and building an even better portfolio! Exciting things!

Crowns and Jewels

 H&M stripped dress and black blouse, Jeffery Campbells Litas, forever 21 bag

On friday I did a little photo shoot with my assistant, makeup artist and a model at a pretty creek in Slo. We had this berry crown especially made for the shoot, so the next day I decided to do a little look with it myself. Hey.. I cant let such an elegant crown go to waste, can I?

Photos from my shoot will be in my next post!

I'm cold. Yes I'm cold. But not as cold as you are.

 Jeffery Campbells, Urban outfitter tights, Betsy Johnson socks, forever 21 jacket and skirt.

I've come to realize that I do a very strange thing. 

I completely turn off my emotions and become completely cold when I feel like I'm going to get hurt.

I just shut down. I stare off into space, not thinking or feeling anything. When others try to speak to me I feel like I can't return any kind of response. I want to move my body, reposition my legs but I remain frozen.

I've never been able to control this sensation of emotional coldness.
My mind quickly responds to threats and shuts down.
January is cold.

And now.. Bubbles.
