Fashion Shoot: Tiana / Irvine Spectrum

There are days I wished I lived in CA. Mostly for the people. But sometimes for the chance at awesome beach pictures with my little one. Something I will live vicariously through my BFF and her little boy-on-the-way. But I know far too many awesome people in Cali. And while my heart lies in Colorado, my feet find themselves in California a few times each year. 

On my last stop in Cali to see Jasmine Star (um, Eek!), I met up with one of my faves, Tiana, for a quick impromptu shoot. We shot outside the parking garage of the Irvine Spectrum. An hour, three outfit changes, and a few mall-cops who insisted seeing what/who I was shooting, and we were done. T, you are absolutely gorgeous. Gah! And just as beautiful on the inside. xo

Cheers, Shannon 

Fashion Shoot: Boulder Falls, er, Creek

The other day, I had an idea for a shoot: waterfall scene!! My intention was to shoot a bikini model at Boulder Falls, however, when we arrived it was closed due to "high waters." So time for plan B. Which is? Lol. I had to improvised big time. Luckily Annelise was a trouper. We pulled over and decided to grab some shots a little lower at Boulder Creek instead.

An amazing friend of mine, Cassie Jahn, accompanied us on the trek to the creek and was an excellent grip. ;) Annelise was an awesome model and such a good sport that day--fyi the water was FREEZING! I have a feeling Annie and I are going to be good friends. ;)

(*2011 Update: Annie and I are great friends! Have been ever since the creek. Love you Annie!)

Here are some shots...enjoy!
