I've been a horrible blogger this past weekend. I haven't done much visiting (of other blogs) and much updating because as always, it was intense and there was much to do. Nothing new, right? I promise though that I'll try to do all the catching up this week.
Like I mentioned some posts prior, me and Yves got the chance to collaborate with Topshop for a shoot especially for us, by us, and to execute as we see fit. I've been slowly trying to add more things to my styling portfolio so I was more than stoked for this opportunity. Yves, who is one of the most recognized stylists in our city, gladly relinquished the "seat" to me to do creative direction this time. He himself wishes to "leave" the styling mould to focus more on his work as a designer. I'm sure he will still be more than glad to take styling projects though.:)
This shoot also gave us the chance to reunite with Hannah Bacalla, one of Yves' earliest collaborators for photography and someone we look up to dearly. If you want to check out more of Hannah's awe-inspiring work, you can check out her site here. You'll be exiting with your jaw hanging.
These are just BTS shots taken from my camera. Can't wait to share Hannah's shots with you guys!
