Chloe Norgaard & Brooke Kao

I got to shoot with Chloe Norgaard from Photogenics yesterday, and had the shoot co-styled by Brooke Kao, a very cool fashion blogger (who once had a feature on Teen Vogue) who I finally managed to connect with during her various visits to LA. I also got to work with Dana Delaney for makeup again, who always works wonders.

This shoot was thrown together fast (probably a bit too fast), but went fine regardless.

Things went somewhat downhill however, when my SD card and my computer simultaneously freaked out in a fashion I’d never before witnessed, the result of which was the complete erasure of about 75% of my images. But 4 hours later and $40 poorer I have them back along with trusty file recovery software. I would say I learned a valuable lesson, but the SD card malfunction seriously came out of nowhere before I even had the chance for a file backup. Dick move, SD card, dick move.

Either way, here’s a sneak peek at the shoot. This is going to be a mixed media type project though, the final result will be pretty different.

Brooke brought a lot of pieces from designer Black Milk, who will now be my #1 stop for amazing one piece bathing suits and crazy leggings.
