THIS IS MY BRAIN ON 03.16.2013

I worked with awesome photographer Aaron Serrano months ago on an editorial that has been published in Sicky and Superior Magazines and hopefully more down the line. Certainly, each shoot is a learning experience. That's the beauty of creativity, there's always room to stretch and grow. I can't wait to share pictures from the many shoots I've worked on this summer with you. We'll have to wait until they are published. Until then, enjoy and thanks for taking the time to check out my craft. What's yours?

Here's the editorial as laid out in Superior Magazine. Feel free to share your thoughts by commenting below.

THIS IS MY BRAIN ON 05.06.12, PART I

“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” -Confucius

Styling the clothes for this shoot made me feel so alive. As I allowed my imagination to run free in preparation for it, I was in a roller coaster car climbing foot by foot towards the coaster's summit on cloud nine. Then, BOOM, I reached the tippy top of the coaster's peak; we were shooting on the Lower East Side in Manhattan and I couldn't have been more thrilled. It was like electricity was coursing through my veins in realization of this and in anticipation of seeing it in print. 

Zings of energy and excitement always propel me forward as I prep for every shoot and private client meeting. They remind me that I'm doing something right and I love what I do, every time. I partnered with photographer Caitlin, hair stylist Rocio and model Alexandra to create the images below. There are a couple more looks that I'll share with you all soon!

Enjoy!,
