Lily Donaldson (in) Model’s Street Style

Before Anna Sui FW 12.13, I was taking a break on the sidewalk, and suddenly, this magnificent blonde with heels was walking down the streets alone. I had to look twice, three times to make sure I was thinking right and was not out of my mind dreaming on such a great image opportunity. The Best Dressed Model of Day 7 was Miss Donaldson! Lily was everything and beyond when I asked to photograph her. She was sweet and so welcoming. Lily made it such a wonderful pleasure to photograph her- the English rose, au naturel in the concrete jungle of New York City. I could not ask for more. Lily was perfect walking down the streets in heels - all professional and yet extremely sweet and nice! She said that she was happy to be healthy and back to walking the catwalk! How perfect is Lily! <3

This moment was just divine, and it brightened the end of the weirdest NYFW season ever - unanimously voted by photographers in the streets and backstage and many of the models. This season, positive energy and happiness from the models were at an ALL-TIME low, and everyone felt it! =( Something about Fall/Winter 2012.13 is very off, and I have not found all the words to describe it for you guys, but my lack of sharing posts hopefully gives you an idea of the lack of inspiration and exhaustion that I have been feeling alongside all my photographer friends, who go model hunting with me during fashion week. Even with some less than enthused experiences from my tweets and the low energy, a happy moment with one of my favorite models of all time reminds me how it’s all worth it to do what I love and enjoy regardless of how others may misinterpret me. =)

Rosanna Georgiou (in) Model’s Street Style

After Peachoo Krejberg SS 2012, I had a chance to shoot the sweet Rosanna. What beautiful style by the Greek beauty! Rossana’s style has me dreaming of streets filled with crisp minimalism and fashionistas in such a soft color palette… Love! <3

Abbey Lee Kershaw (in) Model’s Street Style

After Viktor & Rolf SS 2012, Abbey Lee was a divine sight! I first met Abbey Lee Kershaw in February 2010 during New York Fashion Week. Almost 2 years later, she remains on the top as my streetstyle muse. I will forever be attracted to a woman who wakes up everyday and dresses like she lives in a fairytale. <3

Magda Laguinge (in) Model’s Street Style

After Chanel SS 2012, I was aesthetically spellbounded by Magda. I haven’t been able to forget the mental image of the exact moment when I spotted her after the show. There is something quite special about her that comes in two parts: 1) She has a dark beauty appeal along the lines of Marina Perez and Mariacarla Boscono. 2) She has great personal and colorful streetstyle for a newcomer. Altogether, this Argentinian who opened the Marc Jacobs SS 2012 show just stands out to me!
