Leather and Lace Part 1

Loves,

I have some exciting news...I've paired with an amazing photographer in Ottawa who graciously took my first photo shoot pics ever! I cant wait to show you all how I changed my outfit from day to night with his help.

This Ottawa Photographer has such an ease and helps his clients both male and female learn to let go and be natural (as natural as possible as it may be in a photo shoot setting).

Andrew of photoVanBeek is located in the heart of Downtown Ottawa in the Byward Market. His studio located above the restaurant Play, is a beautiful space, that allows natural sunlight to pour through. Not only is the studio a great space, he has some beautiful antique furniture. The Van Beek Studio was simplistic in nature, but has this ornate mirror that was to die for and if I could have some how snuck away with them, a pair of Damask lounging chairs (If am obsessed with the Damask pattern!).

Andrew and I will be working together int he future so be sure to look out for future posts and more about this amazing photographer and how he got started in the business. Make sure to check out his blog as well where he showcases some of his talent!

Would love to hear your thoughts on the outfit and the shoot!





What I am Wearing:
Dress: Forever 21
Belt: Urban Behavior 
Booties: Coach
Jewellery: Coach
Jacket: Mackage

One of these pictures is also going to become my "About Me"  Page Picture. Which one do you like best?

    Hi! You have a lovely blog. I really love this lace dress and I like how you've paired it with a leather jacket for some edge. The photos are beautiful. I'm looking forward to more of Andrew's handiwork. The last photo in the bunch is my favourite :)

    That is so neat that you're working with a professional photographer! Great photo shoot-I love how you combined the feminine dress with the edgy leather.  My fave pic is the black and white one of you gigging- very candid!

    These photos are amazing! It's so hard to say which one is my favourite, you look so gorgeous in all of them (and your dress is to die for!)... But, if I really had to pick, I think I'd choose the fourth. I love the texture of your jacket and dress, and you look amazing :)

     I love the feel of the photos. The lighting and exposure compliment the outfit so well (obviously, given that a photographer took 'em, right?). Also, I adore dresses with killer jackets, which yours is. I wish I had a great jacket like that.
