Portraits of Silver Lake & Echo Park

Silver Lake & Echo Park represent so much of what the world loves about LA – artists, hipsters, free-spirits, entrepreneurs and dream chasers working hard and living life.

In depth interviews are at the heart of Voyage but with our Portraits series we want to use the powerful medium of photography to highlight some of our favorite people from various parts of the city.

Below you’ll find some of our favorites from in and around Silver Lake & Echo Park– we encourage you to click into the profiles and check out all of these incredible folks.

Actor Amy Bolton

Impromptu photo shoot with @ali_mariie this weekend to practice some camera and lighting skills. 📷🎞 Learning new things can be fun and rewarding but also really intimidating. 😳 I’m not exactly sure what else to say about that except that just messing around with a camera gave me a lot to reflect on about the creative process, self image and self worth. ✨ I’m grateful for my friends and my loves who are willing to go on the journey with me. 💗 . . . . . . #grateful #creativeprocess #journey #photography #photoshoot #collaboration #friends #goals #fear #learning #artist #selfworth #creativity #sayingyes #discover #experience #grow #tummy #breathe #fearless #living

Hairstylist Ash

FOILAYAGE I love to use this technique to create multiple shades of blonde and it also helps create a more lived in appearance. For the toner I used 7/1 & a little 7/7 Wella Colortouch with 6 volume on the top half. For the ends I combined 8/81 & 10/81 with a little /68 also with 6 volume. . . . . . . . #silverlakesalon #silverlakestylist #silverlake #losfelizstylist #hairbyashdemode #losfelizsalon #hairtransformation #echoparkstylist #losangeleshairstylist #hairmakeover #silverlakebalayage #wellacolorist #theharborsalon #hairpainting #hairstyling #redkenshades #thebusinessofbalayage #modernsalon #americansalon #behindthechair #behindthechairstylist #balayageexperts #ombreexpert #ombrehair #hairspiration #instahair
