The Alchemist - Fantasy Issue - Yoanna House Tearsheets_Page_01
The Alchemist Magazine is a new mag with a lot of art and edgy, experimental photography, and their latest cover feature stars our illustrious Yoanna House, winner of ANTM America’s Next Top Model Cycle 2! (That’s right, y’all, two covers with Yoanna last month! POW!) Yoanna has brought her talent, experience, and wealth of knowledge about modeling and the fashion industry back to our good ol’ home town of Jacksonville, FL. In addition to hosting the Beauty Buzz on First Coast Living, she continues to travel for numerous gigs, including an ambassadorship with OPI.

“Boho Blooms” VIDEO by Argie Mitra and EDITORIAL by Lauren M. Gherardi – Published in LA DE DA Magazine

Are you tired of floral boho crowns yet? To be honest, I had been for a while but they are back again in full boho swing for the summer and, well, they make me happy! I love the process: selecting flowers, crafting them into a crown, and styling boho looks with them. So when Lauren wanted to shoot a small series with one of our favorite models, Perrin, how could I refuse? 🙂

Lauren let me use her camera to make a little bit of video. I’ve always been intrigued/annoyed/fascinated/dismayed by Andy Warhol’s videos that seemed to be boring, but really had a bit of story about the subject involved. I gave Perrin a character, we shot a few minutes and this video is the result. I hope you enjoy!

Hey everyone!

What I remember about this shoot is that it was incredibly HOT. It doesn’t matter how long I’ve lived in Florida, I will never get used to how hot it gets. Luckily for Yoanna, I put her in some summery suits and dresses, care of We Are Handsome, and For Love and Lemons. Topped off with unique boho-inspired accessories from my new favorite, Beachbu Jewelry!
