A friend and fellow FIT alumni like myself, James Schuer is a photographer from NY who moved down to Miami not too long ago. I of course seized the opportunity to fly down to shoot with him and relax of course! We shot Gabriela Barragan, a travel blogger from Cali who happens to specialize in dancing. She’s actually a contestant on Travel Channels next star. I suggest you guys click “right here” and go vote for her.

The shoot was all Bikini. I’m sure you “guys” are going to love the shots when I post them. She of course killed it- looking fierce in all of her shots with her lioness hair! Good lord did I get a crazy tan line though.  It was from my wife beater and makeup belt across my chest (we shot at the beach).  I don’t know why but I always under estimate the power of Miami sun.  Remind me to wear a tube top next time. Me being a dum dum was about to wear all black before James told me I was going to bake like a fried chicken out there! You know our NY attire. I just wasn’t thinking!

ANYWAYS,

Gabby killed it of course! We wanted to stay  natural and true to her character. I added a pop of color (MAC lipliner in Magenta) for the final look. We were running out of time so no lipstick!  It couldn’t have paired more perfectly with the teal bathing suit and gold rimmed glasses though.

Heres a sneak peak!
