I have been fortunate to have worked with so many wonderful and talented people this year, and Falling Rain is no exception. I found her work on Model Mayhem quite some time ago and was instantly huge fan. Right after I left Victoria, she messaged me saying that was interested in working together. Since I had just left, we exchanged emails with the promise of future shoots.
At the end of July, six whole months after moving back to the mainland, I finally visited the island. It was a really great trip; I was able to visit my old roommate, spend dinner with my old coworkers from Call it Spring, and shoot! Unfortunately, I was unable to find any MUAs or Wardrobe Stylists who were available on the same days me, but FR and I made the best of it and still had a fantastic shoot. We worked together on creating the makeup and styling the looks. Most of the clothes you see in this series belong to me!
Falling Rain and I really hit it off, which makes collaborating that much better! I think we chatted for almost an hour upon meeting before starting the actual shoot. She was housesitting this absolutely stunning home, presenting me with my first opportunity to photograph indoors. I have always wanted to do a shoot inside of a gorgeous house; the beauty of the environment tells such a story and adds so much to the images. Some of my favourite shoots by other photographs are set in mansions (speaking of mansions… wait until you see my last shoot!)
I cannot wait for my next visit to Victoria so we can work together on a larger scale shoot. I really love these images and I am very excited about what we will create next time.
