WGTA Street Style Solstice: Behind-the-Scenes

This past Sunday, Samantha and I were beyond honored and excited (albeit nervous) to participate in our first real-life photo shoot! The shoot was for the lookbook for the WGTA collection (see our interview with founder Jon Graynor here) that is launching later this month and took place in Long Island City, Queens.  We had the opportunity to meet the WGTA crew and some amazing NYC-based bloggers and, despite the on-and-off rain, we had an incredible time.  The photography for the lookbook was provided by the talented Alexandra Frumberg (check her website out here), but we were able to snap some of the behind-the-scenes action.

We weren't able to photograph all the behind-the-scenes action while it was our turn for make-up and modeling, so we borrowed the below photos from the lovely Rebecca Rorrer of the blog Ambassador of Fashion who also attended the photo shoot.  You can find all her amazing photos and more at her website AmbassadorofFashion.com.

Thanks to Jon and the entire group yesterday for such a great afternoon.  Keep checking back here for more coverage of WGTA's full launch on June 22nd. We can't wait!
