Happy NewYear's eve eve! Can't believe another year has past so here's our last photoshoot to end 2013 fabulous! It was inspired by the Great Gatsby since it's Ricardo's (photographer) favorite time era. Totally in love with this gold beaded dress.

Bianco e Nero

My favorite…love the attitude in the eyes

This has been one of my favorite photoshoots since black and white are my go to colors, it makes everything so much more classy and chic with a splash of edgy. 

Thanks Brianna McCaul for standing out in 28 degree weather for this photoshoot, definitely worth it.

Vintage Beauty

It was such a struggle to find a model that would fit the 1920s theme perfectly until Ricardo and I found Sam Colt. It was definitely worth the wait. I was in love with this look, I think it's the best I've pulled so far.

Feeling like LC for a day

Since my portfolio show is coming up (less than 10 days!) I decided to have a photoshoot of myself done about the 5 steps of styling to showcase it on December 16. I'm most def not the type of person that likes to be in front of the camera so it was a little hard to pose and try to act natural. I think they came out pretty okay if I say so myself. I definitely enjoyed feeling like LC for the day though.

Outfit details: Charlotte Russe blazer, necklace, and top, TJMaxx jeans, Forever 21 pumps

Thanks to Ricardo for being my photographer, Sam Colt for being my model, and Paige Nicolette for letting us borrow your beautiful home.

Bohemian Feel

This photoshoot is from back in April when photographer Ricardo Alvarenga asked me to put together two outfits that would go with the bohemian theme. I guess I could say this is when my career started. I had no clue what I was doing but once I saw the model wearing the pieces I was hooked, I knew this is what I was meant to do. It's the best feeling when you reach that "aha" moment in life and everything clicks.
