Yesterday was another amazing shoot with the most talented Erika Dufour (& company!).  We love working with Erika because she has so many great ideas she’d love to explore…like this latest collaboration, medical devices & fashion & beauty.  OK!  We’re in!  Here are a couple of the “stars” of the story….

the foot brace...

Erika testing out the head thinga-majiggy that hangs...which, I guess, off a door

wow, what a team....Kristyna & Erika

Vicki helped us out immensely with the beautiful location & some styling ....here she is styling my favorite look of the shoot with one of her own pieces.

here's a sneak peak of the look above....LOVE the dress from Gary Graham's new diffusion line, Anagram (that will definitely be another post )

always such a pleasure working with Erika & Sharon (hair & mu artist extraordinaire)....thank you guys!!

Our May Cover Story is shot and should be up soon  This one came down to the wire!  I mean, the wire!  Brandon and I were getting looks together the morning of the shoot with a start time of 9am.  Thanks to the talented crew and the amazing location, all went off without a hitch and the story is beautiful.  This shoot we had a couple of inspirations…this great jewelry ad from Tous.  Oooo la la!

and this FANTASTIC dress from Les Prairies de Paris….

That dress lead us to the gorgeous Rose…..and Voila!  Karl’s take of Rose + Tous ad…..

Thank you Karl!! Cover-Story-Rose would not be Cover-Story-Rose without you!!

The talented crew...photographer extraordinaire, hair stylist extraordinaire and stylist extraordinaire. This is one of my favorite shots....on the white couch :)

OK, threw this one in. Me, behing-the-scenes the day before in our studio for another shoot. Studio shoots are a little nutty in our small space....clothes, makeup, a good handful of people and even sometimes a dog!

Many thanks to our friends, Lisa & Joel.  Their home (aka…amazing location) was absolutely perfect for this shoot.  Here are just a few detail shots of the location…..
