HELLO SPRING! LOOK BOOK | 2013

Sweet Threads had an awesome opportunity to work with a very talented “photographist”, Katie Ging who is not only a photographer, but an artist in her own right. A former ballet dancer, she specializes photographing ballet and children. We invited kids from our local Long Beach shop friends: Make Collectives (Grayson), La Femme Vintage (Mila) and Anneise (Losi) to join in on our Spring 2013 Look Book photo shoot. We couldn’t have asked any other kids to do it better! Just check them out … they show how much fun wearing vintage can be!
