Being the USC Fashion Show Accredited Photographer!
Amanda West Photography

Hello Readers!

This week, I was going to write about my experience in Tokyo on the fabulous USC Marshall School of Business Learning about International Commerce (LInC) trip over spring break. However, my iPhone 7+ is unfortunately glitching out, with the battery being un-chargeable, but no worries- I'll recover the photos at the Apple Store this week and then post the pics for you guys as soon as I get them, I promise!


I have decided to write about the USC FIA Fashion Show that I shot right before break, because, well, it was awesome. When I got asked to be the University of Southern California's Fashion Industry Association Accredited Photographer for their fashion show, I was thrilled. I could not be more honored- it featured HUGE brands like Show Me Your Mumu, Cosmogyral, The Stylist LA, Lore, Nicolita Swimwear, Drip Swimwear, SIWY, and Stephanie Sleisman, among others. I believe that it's very important for brands to be both stylish and wearable. And these brands are all quite that. The models are of all different races, sizes, and backgrounds. I love seeing diversity in runway shows, especially considering fashion's extremely homogenous and exclusive past. It's refreshing to see so many different types of women- some of whom, nonetheless, are close friends of mine- absolutely slaying!


I had the best time working with these incredible models on the runway. It was incredible to be involved in a completely student-produced show. Let's celebrate glamour, fashion, and up-and-coming talent more often. Below are some of my favorite shots. Don't forget, you can book me for professional photography/videography shoots at: amanda@westxphoto.com, and check out my portfolio at: westxphoto.com.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
