This photo shoot was inspired on music and fashion for Meow Magazine. The editor interviewed the band and I took the pictures for the article. This band is based in LA and they are signed with burger records. This record label is located in Fullerton, CA and some of my favorite bands at the moment are signed with them. Melissa Brooks is the lead singer and she appeared on some campaigns for American Apparel and they have opened for the french psych punk band La Femme and The Garden.
I first met with the band at the Pink Motel in Sun Valley, CA and we had some issues with the location so i had to change it at the last minute so we improvised and shot the pictures at this school near there.
The shoot was styled by Cheroke eneas who is the designer of the Devil Slang. She wore all the accessories and clothes from her online store.
The main idea was to shoot Melissa on her daily basis and try to capture her glam and natural look but looking sexy at the same time.
I also took some pictures during sunset i think they were my favorite since the lighting was very nice and their skin tones look amazing.
It was very fun working with them, definitely it's a bit more challenging taking pictures of the whole band. The two guys were moving around a lot so it was a bit harder to capture a good photo of the whole band.
The bay area quartet SWMRS have announced a co-headlining west coast tour with so-Cal's Melissa Brooks and The Aquadolls.
