This past week I styled under Devon Poer owner of the Couture House Los Angeles for the centerfold of the winter issue of Exotic Adventure & Travel Magazine. As far as the theme of the shoot went, we were trying to capture the essence of a young rich, sophisticated couple on a getaway vacation in the hills of Orange County. To capture this what better place to shoot other then The Orange County Mansion. When we finally arrived at the home after our 10 minute drive up the never ending rocky road, my jaw dropped and I was speechless. This house was beyond ridiculous! A circle driveway with a fountain and two huge lion statues greeted me as we walked into the house. This home I can't
even start describing (it would take to long)..all I can say is EVERY piece of furniture in the home was...Versace. Anyways...we used two sexy models Tenley & Robert from Ford, awesome make-up artist Kimberlee Barlow ( Kimberlee Barlow.com) and hair stylist Daven Mayeda ( Daven Mayeda.com). Some wardrobe was pulled from L.A.'s showroom Chic Little Devil but most of the clothing in the shoot was designed from Project Runway's Finalist Jerell Scott ( Jerell Scottdesign.com) The long and tiring shoot went on from 12pm to about 9pm but it was all worth it, you can get a copy of the shoot in Exotic Adventure and Travel Magazine coming out this October at a Borders or Barns & Nobles near you;)
