Giant - Mash-up Team / Austin Photographer / by Melanie Grizzel

austin photographer, austin fashion week, mechanic, classic car, grey dress, model There are the outtakes we did for Austin fashion week. Our designer James Boone, from MyJamJam, brought in 4 dresses to choose from, and this silver workman number appeared to have a story built right it. We chose our model Lailani, Campbell Agency, Dallas, based on her androgynous look. Great bone structure and short boyish hair.  During our first meeting with the crew, also including , stylist, Jenna Hollerbach and make-up and hair artist, Erica Gray we chose the dress, the model, and our concept. We found a garage, Tech One Automotive, which incidentally is out family garage and we love them! They said yes, and gave us a few hours in the shop to make our concept a reality. Lastly we had to find a car, we found a few inspirations shots that would be great under the hood of a car, not pin-up style... 4 Leaf Limo came through with flying colors, gorgeous! I'm very proud of the work we put together.   I think of myself often as a closet fashion photographer ;)

I'd love to hear what you think, leave a comment to share your thoughts.

Thanks for looking.
