Tania is based in Los Angeles, and works in LA, San Francisco and wherever else this wacky world may take her...

Like Duh is a very cute t-shirt line started by teen model and designer Rebekah A. She’s already got herself a celebrity following (see on her site) and is apparently on route to stores soon!

Then I recently did work for the store and online catalog for E.K. Clothing which offers specialty clothing for dancers, and in particular the latin american/salsa dance crowd. Visit e.k. clothing to see more of our shots (note I only did the shots with the fabulous Kirby, who is the african american model on the site). E. K. Clothing is only a couple of years old and has already had to move into larger digs for their brick-and-mortar store so sounds like this young designer/owner is on her way up as well. :)

It’s so exciting to see great fashion originating here in Los Angeles, and both lines are owned and designed by women. :)

The first shoot is for the vintage/antique clothing store Parker Petit (located in Venice, CA).

and the second is for the “post-modern” (in desperate need of a new term, here) line Popomomo

Can’t quite show the clothes on Popomomo just yet as the ads have yet to come out. Even with the close-ups, however, you can see the two designers couldn’t be more different from one another which is the joy of working on these kinds of projects. I get to try out all types of newfangled ideas and tricks! Makeup and hair by moi on both.

Actually, I have a 3rd designer I did some work for that I’ll post when I get the All Clear. Also a female designer. Sistas are doin’ it for themselves…
