Rumi Neely at Rag & Bone

This photo of Rumi Neely was taken at the loading dock of the warehouse used as the venue for Rag & Bone’s Spring 2012 runway show. Rumi and her boyfriend Colin were laid back quintessential Californians, and really pleasant people to chat with.

I wanted to take a photo that was different from the other street-style photographers so I posed her in the narrow loading dock area while they were off fighting for shots of Anna Dello Russo and Bryan Boy. I love the quasi-industrial feel, and the way the sunlight perfectly frames her ombre hair.
