#THEITCollective Series : Featured Photographer // Annie Taylor Hall

by

We’re firm believers of community over competition and have been so SO grateful for all the amazing people who have supported us (and LOVED us!) through all these years. So we here at THEIT recently made a pact to ourselves to put a little bit more heart into the business in all the ways we can. We came up with a ton of amazing ideas we mean to do that but one of the most dear to our hearts was this idea of really creating a community that inspires and supports one another. Our voice may be little, but we know we can make waves.

SO, in the next little while we vowed to make it a mission to not only grow our little tribe of amazingness but also want to support creatives. We want to show off all our favourite people, the people that inspire us, that moves us and the unimaginable talent they have. One word always come to mind – COLLABORATION. We reached out and collaborated with a few talented photographers and came up with the #THEITCollective series.

First up, were pleased to introduce you to one of the most incredibly passionate and talented photographer we’ve ever met- Annie Taylor Hall. We recently collaborated on a styled shoot with her, gave her complete creative freedom and as we’ve imagined came back with one of the most gorgeous lookbook we did see.

Heres the first look from her styled shoot, featuring our The Colt camera bag in black and a few details she shares about the shoot.

Can you tell us a little bit about your recent THEIT styled shoot?

I had so much fun putting together this stylized shoot for THEIT. The style of the shoot was something I personally have wanted to use for awhile now, not to mention the bag made the perfect touch as well.

I really loved the idea of doing some sort of retro 70’s styled shoot with the faded skin tones, bright hues of amber and turquoise, one pieces, and denim. I knew I also wanted to do it somewhere in downtown Salt Lake to have an urban vibe as well.

How did you scout and finalize the location for the shoot?
A lot of the times when I’m scouting it usually consists of driving around and exploring areas that most people don’t see everyday, or don’t take the time to look at. For this one in particular, it was a location I had walked by that I ended up exploring a little bit more.

We thought Kailen was the perfect face for your shoot. Can you share with us where and how do you typically scout for a model? 
To be honest, a lot of the time I find my models on Instagram. It’s a good connection to use because a lot of times models will reach out to you, or you can see through their photos how they model and if they have a signature look or style. With Kailen, I followed her on Instagram and knew she would be a perfect fit for the shoot because she fit the sun kissed natural look I was going for.
