This Weekend

I love fashion!

I love to look fabulous, I love to watch people design, I love to style.  I love hair, makeup... I'm girly that way.
I also love photography.  I see things in my head... visions of images, looks, the whole picture.

I am excited to find my way in this area a bit more.
Will it be as a photographer, stylist, artist?  Who knows!

This week I've been preparing for my weekend project... fashion shoot!

I'm suuper excited!  It has been SO fun, Sooooo fun, putting together looks for my shoot.  LOVE it!  Saturday I'm shooting these two dresses... just a little peek.


Some back story... At the beginning of the year I made the goal to grow in the fashion area, as well as my personal art work... which I'm also working on.  As long as I'm doing a fashion shoot I may as well find unique things to shoot.  My thought was to look for a local designer.  I promote as I shoot their clothing right?

This is how I found Steve Bales, the founder of Bales Clothing.  I contacted him, we chatted.
He has a fashion show coming up and I want to be part of it, we chatted about that too.  He invited me to a model call.  It was great to catch a glimpse of how things work.  A limited view, but still cool.

Steve brought me a few things!  I was super excited!  I have since been creating in my mind, contacting models. 

I am excited to put my spin on his clothing, as both a stylist and a photographer.  Not for him, his brand or anything, but for me.  As a business owner you have to think about your audience, your client.  He has to do that, for his brand!  Me, as a stylist and photographer have my own ideas about the same clothing. 

That is the beauty of such things.  All points of view only enhance the item and give it voice to more people.

So, tomorrow I give voice to these adorable dresses! 

Keep watching!


PS, I found this blog post about fashion.  It was enlightening.
