Summer all the Way!

Outfit: karmaloop.com
Bracelets: some are from Aldo other ones are a mix from the marketplaces in China

Shoes: Aldo
Sunglasses: karmaloop.com

Model: Shannon
Photography: myself

This outfit gives her the summer, street style

attitude all the way with a little touch of

a bohemian style.

Read the interview below from this street

fashionista Shannon.

1) What kind of style are you into? Bohemian, edgy, rock, urban, vintage?
I don't really have a specific style. Something just jumps out of me and I feel like I need to have it as an addition to my closet. Some days I'm boho, somedays I'm more rock or edgy, some days I'm urban and some days I'm preppy. Most of the time I think i'm a little bit of a mix of them all!

2) Who inspire you at the moment? who is you fashion model and why?

I love Mary-Kate Olsen. I think she's amazing. I also love Nicole Richie and so on but i don't really follow fashion that closely, i don't really have a favourite model or anything.

3) Where do you like shopping and why?
I like shopping in a lot of different places. Most of my shopping is actually online because I never have time to actually go into the stores, but I love karmaloop. I also get a lot of clothes from work so I wear a lot of motorcycle brands like fox and metal mulisha. Like I said my styles all over the place.

4) If you had to give an advice to the readers, what trend (type of clothes) would you recommand to wear for this spring/summer?For spring/summer I don't really have any real trend advice, just something fun and comfortable, some bright colours or pastels.

5) What do you like to wear on your daily basis?

On a daily basis I'm usually in jeans and some kind of blouse or tank top. I love boots but lately I've been wearing a lot more ballet flats because of summer.

A Fashion Photographer Straight from New York!

A photo out of the ordinary

All the ideas are here for a good photoshoot. Creativity is the key

The photographer herself

I recently have been in contact with one of the amazing fashion & portrait photographer but also a creative director from New York, MEAGAN CIGNOLI. You will learn more about her not only through her pictures, but also through this interview:

What sparked your interest in photography? Travel, color, cultures, and interesting people that I felt I needed to capture.
How did you develop your skills as a photographer? Some schooling at SVA ICP (school visual of art and international center for photography). I also had great assistants helping, and a lot of practice.
What does it take to be a fantastic photographer? Any art is subjective to the taste of the viewer. I've never been told by anyone that they did not like my work, but perhaps someone will one day. I really believe in my work and love what I do, so that in my mind makes me fantastic !But I think understanding composition, exposure and having a decent camera really help too.
Tell me about working as a fashion photographer in New York : New York is an incredible place to be a fashion photographer because NYC is the heartbeat of the fashion industry. So many talented people here to work with, so many gorgeous models, and so much fashion!
What is the best way to find work as a fashion and beauty photographer? Network, get good, get good representation.
What advice do you have for individuals interested in pursuing a career in (fashion) photography? Shoot a lot, test, find a great team, and once you have a good book start to look for work.
What do you love the most about your job? Deciding what I feel like working on.
