I still remember it as if it was yesterday, when I first photographed Asia Clarke almost a year ago, back in the days when I had just begun my street fashion blog and still found it challenging to approach strangers. But Asia was just that type of girl, full of energy with a really open personality that made it so easy to talk to. Back then, I was already attracted by her amazing style and unique jewelry (which she designs herself). Ever since, I have been following her amazing work through her jewelry line WildMoon, and decided it was about time we got together with her sister Mecha and have some fun with a photoshoot!

@ Queen St. West
I first saw Asia, waiting by herself near the streetcar stop. I was so worried she's hop into a streetcar that I kept turning back and making sure that I'd have enough time to approach her and snap a few shots before the streetcar came. Luckily for me, she was just waiting for a friend. Really talented girl who's made all her jewels (rose earrings a necklace). You can find them on her website http://wildmoonjewelry.com/

You can imagine my excitement when her friend arrived and also turned out to be great photo material!
