Behind the Scenes with Musician Heather LaRose

Behind the Scenes with Singer/ Songwriter Heather LaRose

I met Haley Reinhart at Rock Night Out, an event my partners and I put on in Los Angeles every month showcasing up and coming bands that take you back to the roots of rock and roll { IF you haven’t heard of us make sure to check it and join us for a show sometime https://rocknightout.com/ }

Haley and I connected throughout the evening while jamming out to “Dirty Honey Band” and “Des Rocs” on the Moroccan Stage. We traded social media info and a few weeks later I had an opportunity come up that Haley would be perfect for. A magazine shoot I had spent weeks planning had gotten cancelled last minute so instead of calling it off altogether I reached out to Haley to see if she would want to fill in and do a fun day of creating; no pressures just art. Three days later, I had her in front of my camera with my favorite creative team on set ready to create this fire of a series.

Huge thanks to Lariss Raquel Photography for majority of these beautiful behind the scenes photos from our shoot!

Behind the Scenes: Froy for Saturne Magazine

FROY GUTIERREZ

This shoot with actor and musician Froy was a special one; not only because we had an AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL house to work in, but because I was also able to bring my momma to work with me! She has never seen me “in my element” before so it was THE BEST feeling ever to finally be able to bring her on set while she was in town visiting! And what a shoot it turned out to be, I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better talent or team!

Froy was absolutely AMAZING to work with and I had my go-to gals on set Hali McGowan on grooming and Gabriela Tena knocking out the styles. Check out the collection of Behind the Scenes photos below!

This is one of my favorite shoots to date; bringing my mom to work was such a rewarding and special memory that I will cherish forever. Froy is hands down one of the best peoples anyone could ever hope to work with;he just radiates good energy, fun, and professionalism… and he even gave my momma a big ol hug which made her feel apart of the team.

This series is looking soooo soo good and I seriously cant to show you all the full series when its released later this month! I hope you enjoyed these behind the scenes!

Make sure to check out Froy’s new single “Fix Me”, that track is fiiiiire!!

BTS of On The Move Mag: Samm Henshaw at Epic Records Sony Studios

Life has been so crazy and I have been slacking on keeping everyone updated on what Ive been up to and for that I apologize. Over the past few weeks my life consisted of planning editorial shoots, shooting rock concerts, an amazing nude art series, broken cameras (yes plural), a fancy Hollywood party, a new puppy, and multiple artist shoots. So as you can see I havent had time to breathe let alone blog but things have slowed down( for now) and I cannot wait to start updating you all on my summer adventures.

At the start of July I was contacted by the editor of On the Move Mag, Pam Charbit to see if I'd be interested in doing another shoot for their publication. It had been almost a year since our shoot with actor Keiynan Lonsdale, so I was excited to be able to work with their team again. This time we were invited to Sony Studios Productions to meet with Epic Records newest signed artist Samm Henshaw.

We were given the rooftop area to shoot which was pretty drab to be honest. Think studio lot, so square tan buildings, bright California sun, and faded outdoor furniture. We were able to get some nice images but there was only so much I could do in such a limited space.

We shot for maybe five minutes before I decided to switch directions. I ecieded to let Pam conduct her interview, while Samm's publicist and I went off in search of a location inside the building.

Luckily, once inside I was able to find all sorts of inspiration. There was one location where they conduct meetings. It was a large open room with wooden risers and under the risers were these great track lights, that with a prism and bam, magic!

Samm was just the sweetest person to work with and I know his music career is going to explode! The photos and interview will be released in the September issue of On the Move! Check back to see the exclusive images and full gallery soon
