Q: When did your love of photography and modelling first blossom?A: Since forever and always...
Q: When shooting for Christine Lingerie, what inspires your creativity the most?A: I live with the pieces for a day or two first, and slowly, the story comes to me. I’m all by myself when I shoot these campaigns, so I fall into a world inspired by the collection and exist there for the entirety of the shoot.
Q: We understand that you are currently the face of Christine Lingerie. What do you love the most about this brand?A: All of their pieces are comfy, timeless, and gorgeous, and that's all I’ve ever wanted in what I put on! Christine has something for every girl, in every mood. And that’s a lot!They design for every figure, and all tastes. I’ve got fairy princess pieces, angelic little chemises, and 1940’s Hollywood starlet numbers... I sift through their stuff in my closet like I’m pulling petals from a rose...
Q: Your images for the Christine Lingerie Spring/Summer 2015 campaign are beautiful! Please tell us a little about the experience you had creating these images?A: Thank you! The Spring/Summer 2015 collection was shot in Provincetown Massachusetts, and I was very grateful for all of the beautiful locations P-town provided!But I’m afraid the experience is a little less glamorous than how it looks! Especially when you’re working outside in multiple locations, in the heat, with no car, which is how this campaign was shot.I did my own hair and makeup, packed up the collection, grabbed my tripod and camera and schlepped it from the beach to the the flower gardens and beyond.Whenever it was time to switch looks, I went behind a bush to change. I’d bring along all of my makeup and hair stuff and when I needed a touch up, I’d do it right where I was, with people walking by and everything. I just stayed focused and remained in my own little world.
Q: Do you have any upcoming, exciting plans for your photography and / or modelling in the near future that you would like to share with us?A: There is a lot on the horizon that I am grateful for and looking forward to, but nothing that I can mention just yet!I am re-vamping my entire website at the moment, gearing up to release a project I’ve been working on for four years. So this summer is a major home-stretch for me, like never before.I’m also making a short film on the beach this summer that I’m excited for...Hopefully, I’ll be able to update you with more details very soon, but until then, I’m having fun sharing the collections I’ve shot for Christine Lingerie.
