los angeles | colette + katie

In July I had the opportunity to head to Los Angeles with my photographer friend Katie Meserko to see our hair + makeup stylist friend Paige Pelfrey + shoot some models/singers/actors!

{Photos of me are by Katie. Photos of Katie are by me}.

It was my first time in LA and we stayed in an awesome Airbnb a street over from Abbot Kinney Boulevard, which was also walking distance to Venice Beach! 🌊 🙌

Of course we had to have a little photo shoot together. 😁

Since we shot with the models at the beach, we decided to shoot each other on Abbot Kinney.

I LOVE these fun statement pants. I found them at F21. I found this embroidered vest at a thrift store for a dollar, and the sunglasses are from Nasty Gal.

I had to get a photo with a cactus in it! 😆

The backdrop in the below photo was in the yard of our Airbnb. It works perfectly with my vest!

Some snaps from our weekend~

We had a quick, jam-packed, fun trip!! I'll be posting my other LA photo shoots next!! 💕
