Trang
Last week I got to photograph my super fabulous friend Trang in the studio. I wanted to try out shooting on black to change things up a bit, and Trang's twirly dresses and stunning hairflips were perfect for movement and dreamy backlit gorgeousness.
We danced to kpop, leaped in heels, and glamorously strutted towards the floor fan. Thanks for "art directing" Taichi, and Andrew for making Trang smile. Most of all, thanks for doing all the crazy things I suggest and being so effortlessly fabulous at it all, Trang. Hope you guys had an awesome time, because I sure did :)
