Today I had the pleasure of working with styling team Vaida and Kristina from Carrot Inc. for a shoot I had arranged with Rachelle Summers and Katie Lou.  It was my first time working with both models and stylists so I really was not sure how this half day would work out.

To warm up (literally) we started with some art-nude shots, seems counter intuitive but there were no complaints as both models worked through a series of poses and kept warm!

Due to the last minute arrangements by me, the stylists only had 2 hours available at the end of the shoot to work their magic.

Both Rachelle and Katie Lou were a pleasure to work with and were up for all the ideas and very challenging hair work.  Next time I think we’ll have to take things outdoors and find inspiring locations to do the styling justice.  Looking forward to my next team collaboration!
