Photoshoot!

Last Sunday I participated in a collaborative photoshoot with some exceptionally talented individuals.  Jody Siu of Flesh is a lingerie designer launching her first collection of gorgeous handmade intimates.  Rizza San Agustin is a genius with a camera- her eye for beauty and technique with the camera are stunning.  Check out some of here images at  http://rizzarizblog.com/. Trenell McClure did an amazing job with everyone’s hair and makeup, and Michelle Lee added her expertise as a stylist.  All the magic happened at a Victorian mansion in Oakland that’s in the process of renovation- picture huge windows, wide open spaces, and original architectural details with stripped floors, exposed beams, and demolished walls.  Here are a few pictures I snapped that day- a backdrop for the amazing model shots I’ll share with you later…
