Today I present a new editorial I've been working on, IDLE NIGHTS. The shoot follows a stylish socialite in the midst of a small party happening in the city. Growing tired of the routine red cups and repeatedly seeing different versions of the same crop top being worn, she slips away to the stairwell to catch her breath. Looking down at her outfit, she's disappointed that she pulled out her vintage Jurassic Park tee and favorite, shaggy cover up just for a night like all of the rest. You'd think she would be having a grand time at this posh and exclusive soiree, but this 90's girl has bigger plans. Soon, she'll be calling an Uber to go home, hit her stash of indica and play Super Mario Bros. on her Sega Genesis until she falls asleep...
The inspiration of this shoot comes from years of reading NYLON Magazine--especially the April 2015 issue. The publication features an article about Swedish artist Arvida Byström (by Chloe Schildhause | photographed by Silke Labson) and "Same As It Ever Was" (by Melissa Giannini | photographed by Beth Garrabrant). This issue is one of my favorites, and that title is usually hard for me to grant, because every NYLON issue is amazing. But I am taken away by the well designed, bright and original beauty and fashion editorials and the run down of women who are on a need-to-know basis throughout the publication. Diversity is a wonderful thing, as well as GRRRL POWER, and NYLON celebrates these two values of mine all the time.
A big thanks to my model Israt Jahan! You're awesome and a great, beautiful model to work with. I really do appreciate the love, support and positive feedback I've been getting from every one. Thanks so much to each of you lovely people. But stay tuned! There's more of this to come.
Until next time, wanderers.
