It was really so fun to have my cousin Izzi stay with me for week. She is a professional model living in Los Angeles, so of course we did a shoot together just to say we did. We hadn't seen each other in about 10 years, so we had a lot of catching up to do and comparing notes on our different ends of the fashion industry. She makes a living modeling full time where she spends most of her time on the runway and has great stories including living in Korea and just generally living a glamorous young life.
Ben Pigao was the photographer and he was great to work with and also so relaxed and easy going. He is still editing, but the pictures look so good....
