Stop tickling me! |
I actually had this Blogger account from 2006, well before I started getting into photography, but hadn't even thought about posting until stylist Sarah Shimoda posted on her blog about a recent collaboration, and Blogger wouldn't let me post a comment without identifying myself, which led me to looking at a bunch of my dopey posts from 2007 and forcing me to clean house.
Which brings us to the present. Most of my photography is posted to the aforementioned sites (especially Instagram) but I will admit it is fun to be able to add a few ramblings to my images as well. Just don't expect this to become a habit :)
This was my first formal test for No Ties Models, based in San Diego; I had previously shot with the beautiful Joy Liu while she was in town over the summer, but that wasn't through the agency. No Ties graciously offered me an opportunity to test with Sophia, and I jumped at the chance. This was also to be Sophia's first formal test as a No Ties model so I wanted to impress. As usual, after arranging studio time (at my usual, Studio OC), I went about getting an MUA. Although I had worked with Yen before, it had been over a year since we did a shoot together with Emily of Willow Models, so it was nice to be able to work with her again. But I wanted something a little different this time so I reached out to Sarah of Lamé Chic for some styling help; I think she did a phenomenal job for her first formal shoot, how about you?
