my 12th issue for ones to watch! "In Bloom" features The Two Lips and WHATMORE, as well as words and photos by the OTW team.
the zine was designed by ali wu and myself, edited by maxamillion polo, and prepared for print + digital publication by myself.
for issue 12, i was the creative producer for The Two Lips' photo shoot. to bring the Two Lips' dreamy, polka dott-y, cutesy world to life, we worked with photographer deanie chen, set designer say spezzano, lighting assist zach arquilevich, stylist krissy hughes, and make-up artist ali scharf. i had so much fun working on this - it might be my favorite shoot to date.
additionally, i interviewed Jewlz and Andrea with my colleague, nicole oshima! see our conversation below.
"in bloom" is published digitally via onestowatch.com + issuu with a limited number of print copies distributed via live nation on the one's to watch webstore.
