Hey y’all, I’m Izzy — owner and lead photographer of Izzy + Co. My work lives at the intersection of art, emotion, and connection, shaped by a love for bold individuality and meaningful moments. I have a soft spot for women who live life unapologetically, believe creativity should be felt as much as it’s seen, and still think a little color goes a long way (hot pink forever!)
This journal is where I share recent weddings and portrait sessions, along with inspiration and the stories behind the images.
About a month ago, a good friend, Mark, was in town. He was in our program last year but had to return to the states to finish school. Anyway, he was in Madrid visiting his boyfriend and we met up so I could meet him. Well, I LOVED Leo and made him be my friend. Thats right, I said, hey you, give me your number and email because we have to be friends. Im not usually so pushy but I can be quite socially awkward so when I meet someone Im certain is a good person, I cant let them get away! Leo is a hair stylist and makeup artist who is working for an up and coming modeling agency here in Madrid. I cant wait to work with him on some fashion shoots! He had the great idea of having some pictures made as a Valentine´s gift to Mark. I think this is the best present! So we walked around the city for a few hours and had the best time!!
Hot boy in a crowd, staring at YOU? This is what day dreams are made of!
Mmmmmmhmmmmmmm.
Leo is shy about his smile. But I love this picture!!
This black and white melts my heart!
This is one of my favorite pictures. Ever. I love the tree on the wall, I love the light, and I love Leo!
Isnt´t he dreamy?
Yes, yes he is.
These pictures were taken at The Tabacalera in Lavapies. I love this place! If you don´t know about it, check it out!
Oh Leo, thank you for being my friend. You are such a sweet boy!!!
Next on the blog is some of Leo´s own work. Before these photos, he cut and syled my hair
and did my makeup. And let me tell you, he did a phenomenal job!!
