I didn’t think this year could get any better, but shooting my first cover for Ju & Jules and booking a trip to London and Paris fashion week in the first month sets the bar pretty damn high.
When the Ju & Jules team initially contacted me, the plan was to shoot a bright, uber girly version of Marie Antoinette, but after seeing this blog post, they switched gears and decided to pursue a vampier version, which was a gorgeous contrast to the traditional Marie Antoinette look. Plus, the bad guy always has more fun.
This marks my first published editorial and cover photo all in one amazing go, and it feels so good to set a precedent that I always considered to be a long shot. This also represents kicking off a really good year for me, personally and professionally, which hopefully translates to more work, travel and lots of surprises.
