OLD TOWNE SUMMER
Fashion Editorial · Photography

A self-directed fashion editorial built around an easy, sun-soaked summer feel. Old Towne Summer was a concept piece, my own creative direction start to finish, styled and shot to capture that warm, nostalgic Southern California mood. A story about light, texture, and the kind of effortless styling that makes summer look like a feeling.
