Young and Beautiful

I was going to write a couple lines about this project anyways, but I never found the right time for that. Our 'Young and beautiful' project back in May, truly inspired by art, beauty, spring and Lana Del Ray's music. 



The idea was born when Miss Brush walked into my life trough that door. I knew at the first moment, that I NEEDED to take pictures of her. As my luck usually goes, she said yes and pretty much yes to every request I had. 



The main concept was about capturing her natural beauty in natural environment. I imagined her among flowers, lots of flowers! Of course Mother Nature had different plans. When we've arrived to our location, I could count the number of the flowers with my fingers. Two. 







However thanks to the amazing stylist and make up artist, Barbara Bogar (more of her work: http://putsomelipstickon.blogspot.ca/) the entire concept was saved.
I was desperately looking for flowers, but once we stopped at our first location, quickly realized, that we've got the most beautiful flower in the world and that was Katie herself. 


The whole session was super girly and we all had so much fun. You can find the results on my facebook page:

Reading all the feedback (especially the male ones) has propelled our amazing team to work together again. Maybe Katie will show more of her SIDEBOOB soon. Stay tuned!




Behind the scenes - VS Drakkan

Last week I've had the chance to take pictures of an extremely talented Toronto-based author, called VS Drakkan. 



I've always thought that it's not easy to work with another artist because of the strong and different personalities, but we had only an hour before sunset to get the official author images for his debut novel and I was truly amazed.


























We had one of the most easy-going, fun and artistic photo-sessions together. Despite the lack of time, he was willing to be goofy for the camera - and here are the results.
