A big shout-out to our amazing and adorable client, Jennie Hearing of Luna Leggings. We already thought you were fabulous, but look at you now. Not only is this product fashion-fabulous, but Jennie’s inspiration lies in her passion for a sustainable lifestyle and socially responsible business. Ultimately, keeping out world (and our kids!) healthy and happy. See for yourself.
I am super excited about this post. Not only because I am enamored by the glorious and wonderful designer and owner, Jennie Hearing, and her product Luna Leggings…but because this campaign truly shows the essence of our team and the amazing efforts and details that go into each lifestyle and fashion campaign that we do. Jennie came to me through a dear friend Amy Elder (yes, she was my first wedding client ever!). I have known Jennie for years and I have always loved her energy, creativity, and dedication to her community and the world around her. When I learned that she had developed, designed, and dreamed up Luna while raising two young girls, I was even more enthused and impressed by this lady. And with a 2-day trip to India to select the perfect fabric and manufacturer to maintain and sustain her organic line, she rose to rockstar status. Jennie is a dear sole, a dream client, and dedicating a portion of her sales to Alice Water’s Edible Schoolyard Foundation. Luna is truly a labor of love for Jennie. We chose the beautiful Potrero Hill Community Garden in San Francisco to showcase the company and the garden’s philosophies on educating children about real food, how to grow and eat it. Our second site, the amazing graffiti of Meagan Spendlove, a mother and activist. As for our team, I have to do a little bragging…Mary, Mary, Mary, our stylist of Sister Brother, you are a god-send, and a talented women through and through. My partner in crime, you bring magic and life to every shoot with your unique and ingenious vision. And thank you to Kimberly Kalmbach of Bloomers for her always gorgeous flowers and set design, Liz Bagatelos for her stunning makeup, and Katie Neutz of Muse Boutique for her twists and braided goodness…Jessica, Blake, Kristi, Andi, and Elizabeth for all your incredible help and support.
Yeah, yeah yeah! It is amazing to see the first issue of Kidaround come to life! And we are so proud to have the cover and the feature spread. The Fabulous Kara Turner, the magazine’s new owner, has brought class and charm to the forefront and heart of this magazine with a true celebration of moms. I was selected to contribute to the magazine by the one and only, Mary Kinney of Sister Brother & Fashion Style Editor for Kid. As always, her unique and dynamite vision for this story on extraordinary moms was a true masterpiece. And we always have the most incredible synergy together. And all of you Moms rocked it. I can’t thank you for your beautiful kindness and energy throughout the shoot. We look forward to many more Kidaround contributions. Here’s a sneak peek at the feature spread.
Angela came to me via my clients, The Koenigsberg Family. The minute I started making plans with Angela for the shoot, I knew we would have a great time collaborating. Her vision and ideas were awesome. I should have known the girl was a creative… Angela is a sought-after stylist at the adorable Parsnips Salon in Pac Heights. And a super mom I might add. Usually clients just show up, but Angela had the red wagon and bubbles in hand. All in all, it was a great day at Sutro and I loved working with the family. T.O. and Koby couldn’t have been more low-key and Kailer was a ball of energy and fun. He kept me on my toes for the full hour.
Edgy editorial, cool kids, a superb columnist, and the best stylist around? I am in! I am just about to shoot the first editorial spread for the revamped kids magazine, Kidaround. Not only will Mary Kinney of Sister/Brother be involved styling the shoot (and you know I will do any project that girl is on!) as the new Fashion Editor, but the magazine promises to improve on its already so-popular stories by continuing to resource its large readership and real moms. I can’t wait to share our first contribution, stay tuned. And to note, the picture above is from last year’s holiday shoot with the Kinney Family (you see what I mean?).
When my client Brooke Govenar called to ask if I would photograph her new line of kids clothing, Gracie Mae, I was so excited. I immediately thought of Bear Flag Farm as our backdrop. Tina Reikes‘ beautiful wedding site in Winters is a perfect blend of rustic and elegance for Brooke’s Fall line. And with a gorgeous October day and super fun styling by my other client Mary Kinney, we were set. The girls did the rest. And might I say, it was hilarious amusement all day long. My baby Harley even got to be a part of the party. She didn’t model, but boy did she love watching the show.
Oh and the line is named after Brooke’s two daughters, Lily Grace and Annabel Mae. So cute!
