Retro Inspired


Vegas Recap : Day 2
, Part 1

So in my last post I believe I referred to my Vegas housemates as “pure greatness”, and I’m confident I could go on and on about how that’s so but I may lose your attention. So here’s just a little proof for you, when I walked into the kitchen Sunday morning Pat (affectionately known as Tom Brady) was making PANCAKES! He even did the dishes afterward, what a terrific start to the day.
After a tasty breakfast a few of us had planned on going to a large shoot out in Nelson for the afternoon but, to my dismay, it was canceled. That was two shoots in two days that something had gone wrong, I was starting to become a bit worried. So with nothing but time on our hands Cailyn and I set out for a drive. We decided to cruise the strip, which takes a surprisingly long time to do!
It turns out there was no need for my morning worry after all. Last minute shoot, in the middle of nowhere- I’m in!

These photos are of Jessie. She is an aspiring model in Virginia beach, personally I think she should drop that “aspiring” part. You’ll be seeing more of her on the blog later because I had the privilege to shoot with her twice more last week!

I had a very specific goal with these images, from the way I shot to the way I post processed. Something about Jessie’s dress, peace earrings, great hair, and the surroundings just screamed “modern retro”. I realize I wasn’t even born in the era we now call “retro” but I imagine these pictures would be something I’d want to see while flipping through a 1971 issue of Vogue.







More stories and pictures from day 2 to come…

Melinda Worthington - I love this post, it’s got such an old feeling to it. It reminds me of a show from the 70′s…just can’t remember the name for the life of me! Great job!

Cailyn - Hmm.. I think I’m seeing some Pool Party in these photos!

I’m jealous that you’ve gotten around to posting yours before me, but hopefully mine will be up tomorrow!!

I miss you, roomie, and I hope you’re feeling better!
