BLOOM
04/21/20
In these times of quarantine, isolation, uncertainty due to Covid-19 we needed a bit of joy, friendship, air, ocean, movement. So after a virtual wardrove fitting with stylist Gena Tuso, we met with Karina in a place away from people and practiced social distancing whike capturing her enjoying life for what it has to offer here in LA. It felt good to get out there and create with someone we've been wanting to photograph for a long time.
