Big Day TODAY
10/12/2005
My friend pierre, the camera man and director, just sent me an mms from the big soccer game at the stadium. He invited me to go but i have much to do to prepare and organise!
Today was an amazing day because my beloved agency in milan sent me THE COVER KISSING THE EIFEL TOWER AND 12 PAGES INSIDE! Shot by agnes spaak this summer!
Gioia magazine is in the rusconi publishing house in italy. It means so much to me to be on the cover as it was Agnes Spaak, who booked me the first job in Italy even though the magazine did not think i was their magazines look! She was the only person with the power to take me for the magazine no matter what because Agnes was not only the photographer but she was ALSO the Fashion Editor! She was the first woman and photographer to be both editor and photographer working exclusively for a magazine in Itlay. In italy the Fashion Editors are also the ones who come up with the story shoot idea, produce the event, and style the clothing also. In Agnes case, she was also then shooting the story! Unheard of!
HERE'S THE BACKSTAGE FROM WHEN WE SHOT IT AND I LIFEBLOGGED IT!!
She worked in this way for many years before she shot me, and now she has stopped working as a Fashion Editor, in order to only be only a photographer. Now Sarah Spaak, her daughter, is Fashion Editor of Gioia and she styled our photo shoot -- agnes took the photos. I love this awesome outfit with max mara jeans. It's the perfect geek girl outfit for Microsoft conference meetings! I can not wait to scan the photos and put them in my editorial section! i have to find out which ones from my agents and which ones are good for what countries! Today I packed them up for posting them to all my agencies.
THEN I GOT A VERY IMPORTANT CALL INVITING ME TO A REALLY IMPORTANT EVENT!
Wow what a day today!
CELEBRATION JUBILATION!
