A little while ago I had the opportunity to do something fun and different from the types of shoots I normally do. The ladies over at Fancy Eats Blog asked me to do a photo shoot for them that they could use for their up and coming blog, which combines fashion and food….yes please! These two have been friends for 15 years, and had always talked about starting their own site where they could combine their three loves: fashion, food, and friends. They venture out a few times a week to explore their own personal style as well as great restaurant finds across Los Angeles. I especially like seeing the different outfit combinations they come up with, giving me inspiration how I can combine affordable items and more expensive staples. Check these ladies out, fancyeats.com, on top of being informative (where to shop and where to eat) this blog is actually quite funny and witty! It gives me a good laugh. As the site grows and develops, they would eventually like to see Fancyeats expand into an e-commerce site. Thank you Sarah and Amanda for such a fashion-filled day, I loved it! Eat Well, Dress Fancy.

LOVE the first part of the shoot in the open field. Where did you find it? Is the location in Orange County? Just gorgeous…
