Laura Miro, Photographer

For those of you who haven’t seen Laura Miro’s soulful and stylish photos here are a few selections from her set Just like a cat she landed on her feet featuring Alyssa Lobit.

In the coming months I will have the opportunity to work with Laura and I can’t wait to work with her shots and create some designs inspired by her view of the world.







As you can see, Laura is a natural.

Below are Cazals rocked by The Human Beat Box, Darren “Buffy” Robinson of the FAT BOYS at Venice Beach, California, circa 1985:
