OH, HELLO BLOG!

Sorry I've been neglectful these past few weeks and have hardly posted/commented. I've been super, super busy with Knockout Clothing and am just starting to wind down... for a few days at least!

I've been hemming a bunch of dresses which go on sale later this month, and making my rounds at estate sales. Also went out and bought more (much needed) accessories for styling our shoots. I'm especially excited about the latter, because accessories can make such a huge difference. I've been lazy and haven't put that much effort into styling the shoots, so I'm working to improve this. You can't grow unless you're willing to critique and improve your own work.








Those are pics from a collaboration I did with photographer Emily Rusk (Digital Pixels), Paper Dolls makeup, and models Caitey Sarganis and Erin Gentry. Emily's friend Brian did the art direction too, and did a pretty fine job if I may say so. They were all great to work with, and I look forward to doing it again.
We shot at Turtle Creek park, which is a really beautiful place. It was sooo freezing though! And windy as hell! I felt bad for Erin and Caitey, but they were great sports : ).
