GRAND FINALE- Oscar de la Renta/NYFW Experience: Show #17!

Introducing: The Main Event of the New York Fashion Week season.

This was my last show to photograph for New York Fashion Week, and it surely ended with a BANG- the front row was nothing but fashion industry all-stars (Andre Leon Talley, Rachel Zoe, Franca Sozzani, Joe Zee & Robbie Myers, Patrick Demarchelier, etc) and the models lucky enough to walk the de la Renta show have been the face of many of the high fashion campaigns you see in magazines and billboards.  Don’t believe me?  Check out the recent ads for Gucci, Burberry, Dior, and Chanel…just for starters.  It was an exhilarating cap to an unforgettable journey- from college student, to pocket camera amateur, to Fashion Week photographer in one year.

What blows my mind the most is that it only gets bigger and better for me.  I intend to be a FORCE in the fashion industry…and going through the financial hell to get to my passion’s beckoning call has proved well worth it.

In this journey to success it’s about who you know…and I happen to know the head designer for accomplished womenswear/bridal designer line Angel SanchezShe requested my photography (so honored!) for the the NYFW presentation in order to collaborate with uber-talented fashion illustrator (and currently designer for Calvin Klein) Mengjie Di. My photographs were the muse and Mengjie breathed GORGEOUS animated life into them.  It was great to have such a respected line under my client list, but to also see the synergy of creative input at work!

Mengjie Di’s other amazing illustratiion/design work is on her blog- check her out!

NEW YORK Fashion Week- Show No. 16! Angel Sanchez (September 16th)

Congratulations to talented young fashion designer Maken Imcha, whom I had the utmost pleasure meeting at the senior fashion collection presentation at Savannah College of Art and Design-Atlanta earlier this year.  She became valedictorian of her class upon graduating- and, similar to my story, chased her promising career all the way up North to New York City, where she is currently the head designer for accomplished designer/line Angel Sanchez.

It was an honor to be called up by Maken to take photos for the Angel Sanchez fashion house for an artistic collaboration with uber-talented fashion illustrator Mengjie Di, who also went to SCAD.  I will reveal the final photo+illustration collection in a few days.  Until then, enjoy one of my favorite Fashion Week presentations I covered during this sublime period in my young career.

NEW YORK Fashion Week- Show #15! Issac Mizrahi (September 16th)

Not many fashion designers can claim legendary status like Issac Mizrahi.  I was overwhelmed with glee when my client secured the media credential for this New York Fashion Week staple.  For a first-time rookie FW photographer, this was truly a big deal.  After shooting the show, I believe it is also one of my strongest runway collections- the lighting, the clarity, the faces…MON DIEU!
