Tribal Traits


So, remember I spoke about a shoot I had to style!? 

Turned out to be a success:)! Enjoyed working with Shalietha Ross Mua and her sister, the Hair stylist, Marquinetta Jenkins-McCray! Its always fun:) and Funny!!

Vania Locklin was the Model for this shoot and she was Incredibly STUNNING!! Didn't have to give her much direction because she had already had the posing together! LOVE IT!! Its funny because we were going to have another model for this shoot but something came up and we ended up having to shoot Ms. Vania. She's Half Indian and half african American. (MM#: 2722254) First time working with her but will not be the last:)

Ive been craving to style a Model for a Tribal shoot for a while now and.... They helped with making it happen!

Heres are a few BTS Pictures from the Shoot yesterday. Yes, i took these with my iPhone.. Nice right!! (Did I mention Im taking a Beginners course on Digital Photography?) ;)

It feels so good to know that there are other people that are sharing the same passion and wants that you are so passionate about and wanting! Makes me so much more motivated and inspired at the same time!!




Until Next time.....

Busy Busy Industry...

Left to right: Kathlyn, Safia, Iris, and Me:)


Ive been working hard Brainstorming!!! AHHH.. But in the meantime this is whats been happening :)


I recently styled one of my Fav models, bookings4iris.com . This shoot was a lot of fun! The Photographer, Oliver Manuel Photography, was amazing which was extremely hard to believe because he's just beginning as a Fashion Photographer! Safia, Owner of "Lipstick Mixtapes"Lipstick Mixtapes, was the Makeup artist who has worked with many many Models and her Lipstick line is Awesome, just like her work. Lastly there was Kathlyn, who did a Fantastic job on the Hair.


 DRIPPING GOLD (Model: Elizabeth Salyers)


Next I had a Shoot with, Bianca (Photographer, Bianca Jeiselle Photography ) and Model Elizabeth Salyers Elizabeth Salyers. Ive worked with Bianca before prior to this shoot and she's really good at what she does! She has her own style and thats what I enjoy! As for Elizabeth, it was my first time working with her and she was very relaxed and ready to shoot! Cant wait to work with her again:)

Big Pink Elephant in the Room... EEEKKK

                                                              
Today Ive decided to start my New Blog About myself and My Styling! It has Taking me an extremely LONG time to get to "Wanting to make a Blog". Im sure I'm not alone but i definitely feel Alone! (Maybe because its my first Time ever!?) I Guess all the thoughts and questions that Im asking myself will not be answered UNLESS the Blog comes into play! Right?..

Just a Few Months ago i was telling my sister that i wanted to start a blog BUT wasn't sure what it should consist of! Yea, Im a Virgo I know! I Over think EVERYTHING! Everyone that knows me Knows that i Love fashion and i have an eye for it! Not saying that I'm amazing with naming Designers and Materialistic things because, Im not. I Just enjoy putting things together ( Fashionable Things that is). So why wouldn't my Blog be about My Days and Life as a Fashion Wardrobe Stylist!? So.. Here we Go!!

Tho I'm feeling like the Big Pink Elephant in the Room!!
