A lot of preparation and last minute touches go into a single image on a fashion shoot.

I worked with model, Shauna, a singer-songwriter in Los Angeles, to to create a look of ease and serenity in a grassy garden. Photographer Bill Aron and his assistant Alexis located the perfect spot for Shauna to sit, where she was mostly shaded with just a glint of afternoon sun glancing her hair.

Once Shauna was seated, Pam came in to do touch ups on Shauna’s hair and make-up. A relaxed and effortless hairstyle is anything but that–each strand was expertly placed by Pam.

Alexis steadied the light and Bill crouched down in the bushes to get just the right angle for the shot.

At the last moment I reached in to adjust the pendant on Shauna’s necklace.
