It started over lunch with one of my clients. He asked, “hey Kristin, you know a lot of people…. what is the best way to start developing relationships in Laguna Beach?”. My answer, “get involved in the community”. Laguna Beach loves to support people who support the schools, support the arts and get involved in local charities. I suggested that he host an art show in his new music studio in downtown Laguna. He said, “great, we will make you our first artist”.
Fast forward six months and I am putting the finishing touches on twelve original art pieces. I used local students as my models and in celebration on Earth Day, named my exhibit “Elements of Love”. Over the next few months, I will share each individual art piece and what my inspiration was behind creating them. Let me tell you, this wasn’t easy. It was scary and I felt vulnerable diving in to a new area of photography, but I am so glad I had the experience and so thankful to Nicholas Yrizarry’s Wealth Management Group for hosting the art show at Laguna Beach Art Museum. I also want to give a big shout out to Sriti Fusillo for helping all along the way and Laura Foster and Brittany Norton for hair and makeup. And a very special thanks to all of my handsome and beautiful models. I absolutely loved working with every one of you. Enjoy!
