Hedkandi

The tag line is "Love what you see", and I do! Jereme from Hedkandi salon asked me to style this ad shot by the amazing Gerard Yunker and with creative by Brad Connell from Wax Partnership (agency). Tara Anand gave good face and the girls were gorgeous! We shot in the stinkiest bathroom at the Blackfoot truckstop, the MEN'S Bathroom to be specific. Guys kept trying to come in with Aleisia up on the counter making out with herself in the mirror and I had to keep shooing them away! Shooting on the C-train with the super sexy Ania B. with Gerard yelling directions like, "More butt!" with all the people just trying to get home after work was epically funny. The owner of the restaurant we used, Fleur de Sel, was very gracious and the wine was delicious. All in all a super fun shoot with great people.

Summer Swimwear Story

Check out the new issue of We Like We Love Magazine for our summer swimwear story! Photographer Colin Way did a beautiful job with the location and managed to make the side of the road tourist spot look like an amazing isolated desert. It had just finished raining for a week and although it looked dry there was a slick layer of clay under the surface. Mode model Steph DelAlba did a great job and was fearless when climbing the treacherous hoodoos to get into some of the locations. Teslin Ward did a beautiful job on make-up as usual and it was a fun day out in the sun. Thanks to editor and art director Alyssa Yuhas for running our story and if you would like a printed copy you can purchase the magazine here.


Here are a couple of shots for you...

Make the Girl Dance

I have been missing Paris like crazy even though I have only been there once. I want to be there all the time! So I am posting a video shot on my favorite street, Rue Montorgueil. Plus I like the song.

Saddle Up

I love the leather Brooks bicycle seat carved into plaid by Kara Ginther.

A Lesson on Perspective

I have been trying to look at things in a new way. This was produced by Charles and Ray Eames but has nothing to do with furniture. It does have everything to do with perspective though and the music is amazing.

Menswear

Starting to think about a menswear shoot I have been asked to do for September and I love the direction of this Tom Ford campaign. That guy is magic! I especially like how they are posed. Even if it is from 2009.

Mad Men

So excited for the premiere on July 25th! Love hearing the costume designer Jaine Bryant talk about her work too.
