The latest issue of Ceci New York's online-editorial, Ceci Style is OUT! This week is our third installment for Ceci - with one fabulous shoot yet to come!

The inspiration for this issue revolves around an invitation Ceci designed for Eve Behar, yes, that's the daughter of TV Personality, Joy Behar, and she focused on an Art-Nouveau look, which mixes modern and vintage. The gown Ceci chose for this shoot is a Jenny Packham gown that fits absolutely perfectly! Make sure to check out the full installment of this week's issue here!

Ceci Style // Birds of Paradise!

in , ,

The latest issue of Ceci Style is OUT and we are SO excited to show you this round!

This issue revolves around Guatemalan inspired invitations for a wedding down in Antigua! For this issue's shoot, I originally planned on using kind of a 'bad flash' technique against the textured wallpaper; however, sometimes being a good artist means switching gears in the middle of a shoot and seeing the potential for an entirely different feel! We ended up shooting this cover with the most gorgeous natural light that was poring through the windows on an overcast day in NYC....perfect light!

Ceci Style // Out of Africa!

in , ,

I am SO excited to finally share a project with you that has been in the making for a couple of months! One of our clients in New York is a brilliant invitation designer, named Ceci! This woman is a power house and when she asked me to photograph a series for her online magazine, Ceci Style, I was so freaking excited! Ceci's online editorial is all about sharing the inspiration that she has when designing invitations, and it is pretty impressive! This week's inspiration is straight from Africa and I absolutely love how these images turned out! You can check out the full issue here! We also have this super-cool-behind-the-scenes video that you should watch from the shoot! Special thanks to Allan for making this little piece of magic happen!

As always, I would LOVE to credit my crew for all of their help with this shoot! There will be 3 more weeks of shoots, which will be released on Tuesdays, so keep your eye out to see what else we did!

TRIBE

in , ,

First off, let me start by saying that I am SO excited about this shoot! About a month ago, I separated my fashion portfolios between Fashion Editorial and Fashion Lifestyle, and I realized that I had WAY more editorial, in studio work than lifestyle imagery. So, in an effort to pump up the lifestyle side, I have been putting together a few tests to bulk up that side of my work! Dreaming up a concept is so much fun and this past winter, I was introduced to Hackwith Design House...and ever since then, I have wanted so badly to use their clothing in a shoot! Through the power of twitter, I was also introduced to Chris Chookiatsirichai, who is an amazing tribal jewelery artist! Overall, we had SUCH an amazing team that brought this vision to life!

Enjoy!
