I was able to get the day off so I made sure that no other plans were going to interfere. LA has been pouring rain like stupid crazy and the one day it was dry and partly sunny it starts to kick up again when the moon peaks through. I laid in bed thinking, " great no photo shoot!" but turns out the team proceeded anyways!! Rain or shine there was a collection that needed to be shot in the freezing desert sands of Lancaster! The weather turned out to actually be perfect for every shot!! To be quite honest it's my favorite to shoot in... Wet dewy.. Cloudy weather! We froze our butts off and I prayed every minute for these rad models that totally WORKED it wearing literary nothing! All I have to say is that when ever Im assisting for any ODYLYNE shoots... It always turns out to be a moment of laughter, productivity, fun memories to remember!

Traveled up the high mountains of Griffith park to take a few beautiful shots! Glammed her up in some beautiful ODYLYNE ..and took a risk in a no trespassing area! I'm so glad we knocked out these pics before we got busted by a park ranger!! As we shot these photos we came across some beautiful deers and ferocious coyotes! We got our butts out of there! Traveling back down the hill we stopped by our favorite coffee spot in the hills, "trails" coffee, tea and pies! We grabbed a few lavender cookies..lattes and talked until sunset.

Attending exhibits like this means that sometimes you just have to pop in your headphones bump your favorite jams and get inspired!!! Start soaking in all the art and recreate your own either at home, in your heart or even in your dreams! Tunes in my ear: Toro y moi: THE WHOLE ALBUM!!!! (anything in return) Jose James: bird of space // actually that whole album too!! (no beginning no end)
