All photos shot on 35mm film by Jessica Pomerantz.

Alex Thompson

Alex was one of the first models I photographed in Los Angeles and we have become close friends over the last year. Alex's building renovated their pool so we decided to have a quick shoot. We then laid out and got dim sum later that evening.  Los Angeles, CA May 2017.

No More Parties in Malibu

Arsenic had their going away party before their World Tour in Malibu, CA. I met my friend Brenna working on several shoots with Arsenic so it was fun to attend the party together. Stopping for fruit with our Uber driver on the way home was one of my favorite moments of the day. Malibu CA, May 2017.

Camila

I saw Camila at the Arsenic going away party in Malibu the weekend prior. We both loved the few photos I took while at the party and decided to plan a new shoot. I have been inspired by the portrait work of Nicole Pagan and Aris Jerome with soft colors, fun accessories, and honest emotion. Camila and I have worked on several creative shoots before and it has always been an amazing experience creating together. Los Angeles, CA June 2017.

Stephanie

Stephanie and I worked on a shoot together last year and I have been wanting to set up a shoot ever since. I have been in love with Stephanie's freckles, English accent, and witty remarks. I met Stephanie in her enthusiastic Marketing and Public Relations role so it was nice to strip that away for our softer shoot together. Los Angeles, CA June 2017.

Beach Day with Friends

I have been very hard on myself the last few months. "Sorry, I cant go out, I need to edit" has been my immediate response for 90% of my social invitations. I have found myself very isolated this past year, so it was nice to have a relaxing beach day with friends. My roommate had a few friends in from the east coast so our newly formed group appreciated the day together under the hot sun. As we were leaving, I had to run off to the bathroom and saw this clown sitting on a bench. He was very upset I could not tip him as I left my bag with my friends, but it is one of my favorite photos ever. Venice Beach, CA May 2017.
