all spun out.

revving up for a little spinsy ...

blurring images on purpose is one of my favorite little experimental things to do, as i get better with low light, etc. {which is tough! :) }
whilst shooting at Gusto pizzaria the other week, i had Erica do some spinning to see what we could capture.
i quite like the end result ... let me know whatchya think, kids!

tired of erica yet? :P

thanks for stopping by!

i've been meaning to do this for a WHILE now, but i FINALLY made some time to create myself a more personal little top section of my bloggy here. :)

i'm partial to it, but i always love creative feedback!

In the Pizza Joint {with Erica T.}

i'm not obsessed.
i just have Erica-a-plenty o' photos!! harhar. :)
ok. i know
i'm a big dork, but how can i not share pics of my loverly pal, Erica, eh?

here, we have her in a blessed pizza joint up in the beloved fountain square .
unfortunately, this evening we had quite a tough time finding an establishment that would let us shoot within its quarters - even for 5 minutes!!
you see, it's winter (still, YUCK) and i couldn't have my dear model freeze to death - especially in such CUTE duds. ;)
fortunately for us, Gusto was a funky-awesome place to shoot {and next time, we'll actually find time to manger there - we swear it!}.
THANK YOU, GUSTO !!!!
{MAN, their food looks DELISH!!! the artwork displayed there isn't too shabby, either ;) }

until next time ... ENJOY!

xoxo



this is her 'i'm hungry - let's pause for pizza' face. :P


work it - work it.





under the RED light = my fav of this set. :)

On Top of The World {with Erica}

I met this gawgeous little red head on facebook recently, via my dear model pal {that you know so well} kimberly page. when she first friend requested me, I hesitated because I just plum didn't know her! well, after keeping her request on hold a week or so, I noticed her profile pictures change from one darling photo to the next. I finally added her and we started chatting about fashion, photos, etc. We soon realized we had way too much in common NOT to get together to shoot and befriend one another in person!
:)

Last week, we met up in Indianapolis for a fresh 'n' vibrant shoot of high fashion porportions ... let's just say I took a baZILLION pictors, and shall be editing them for the next week straight, at least!


We put our wardrobes and funky style together - I got the chance to play makeup artist once again, which I simply ADORE!! hehe. i was channeling these looks a la sephora . Looks like this really get me EXCITED ... I know it's not quite socially acceptable to go out looking like this, but I'm going to try some of these looks out on future shoots and on myself for future glam-tastic nights, for sure!

let me know whatchya think, and enjoy Erica's le faire chic debut!
stay tuned, for you will definitely see more of me + Erica here soon. :)

love this pose! she is a superb vogue-r, fo sho! ;)





one of my favs!

the pretty in pink shoot

hello ladies and gentlemen,


allow me to introduce you to my good friend, stephanie {yes, from previous bloggies :) }, as her alter ego - which i'll call "Gigi," in my silly bubble gum pink wig.

this shoot was a blast - all of them are with her, but this particular look is SO fun and outrageous!! i got some makeup inspiration from Interview magazine and did her eyes - she brought the wicked cool attire.

i actually did this shoot for my VERY DL TRES IMPORTANT project {the "big" thing i've been mentioning recently}. you see, i had to do it as an application project for the miami ad school {portfolio school in Florida}. the theme happens to be shooting a subject from the perspective of a small dog - LOVE the quirkiness!! so i thought, why not take a goofy theme and vamp it up as a completely outlandish shoot? plus, i was psyched for a reason to toss in my good ole Taco Bell doggy - that still says "I think I'm in love" after all these years!! :)
steph is totally channeling daryl hannah in Blade Runner {LOVE, hehe}.

thanks, "Gigi"/Steph!!! ;)

enjoy and please do leave comments!

xoxo
