TEFFTOPIA SP. 2011 LOOKBOOK x CALIFORNIA-DREAMER

Am I the only one who finds the fact that Cali and New York folks tend to wanna trade places? lol it's either that, or folks in other states have dreams of being in either state. Cali has the constant beautiful weather, the amazing beaches, the beautiful women, and alllat, while, New York is an amazing city, amazing night life, great stores to shop at, etc! Ya know? You just gotta love it. Moving on, I had a photo shoot with my friend, Erika on Wednesday and my aim was to capture the very essence of California.
If you, the individual reading this are a native of Cali or you're from LA, let me know how I did.









We did two looks for this, keep in mind, this is but a preview! I'll release the rest of my lookbook next week! I've finally shot ALL the looks: City-chic, the urbanoutfitter, bohemain-chic, and california-dreamer! I really wanted to incorporate the hipster and prep, but we'll save that for another day! I feel like I haven't found the right person for "prep"! Might shoot that in the summer! Yes, I'll put out a summer lookbook as well! Stay tuned.
*I realize I haven't been placing my watermark on most of my photography, if you do decide to post my photography on your websites and such, either ask for my permission via email or twitter OR properly incorporate a credit/source of some sort. If I don't see a credit/source of some sort, I will be forced to take a legal approach. Don't say I didn't warn ya.

LOOKBOOK: TEFFTOPIA SP.2011 x BOHEMIAN-CHIC

The minute I spied Mallory (the model) at my school's computer lab, I knew her beauty would speak true to the vision I had for this look. Glad to come to the realization that I was right! Here are some shots, some of 'em are unedited as well as edited. By the end of the next week, I should be done shooting all the looks then, I'll release 'em one by one. (:
I hope you guys are enjoying this as much as I am.

TEFFTOPIA SP.2011 LOOKBOOK PT.2 x THE URBAN OUTFITTER

Last night, I vlogged about the minor change I made on the release of Tefftopia's lookbook; yes the lookbook still features some pieces that'll be listed in the online store, but rather than me photographing my models all in one day, seeing as they all cancelled on me last week Tuesday, I'm gonna post the photos in themed sessions. The shoot with An Dukes will be titled "City chic" and the shoot I'm about to post featuring my homeboy Ronaldo is titled, "The urban outfitter". I'll post all the photos in its entirety by mid-April. The vlog explains it in greater detail.
