Funky Twenties Shoot

Model-Candice Davis
Good Afternoon New World,
I was a little tired earlier, but I am back for part 2. I had back to back engagements on Saturday, and my body was begging for some type of sleep. Anyway, let's get started, shall we?

Well....as we all know, I have been working with my friend, Leah Jones, with her photo shoot. Let me be the first to say that she did extremely well. The models were very lovely, especially Ms. Chakarra Lumas. Although, I know my memory is like an eighty year old women, I would like to apologize to her. I am very sorry. She, along with the other models, were very professional and terrific. Their poses were on point, and they were very easy to work with. I want to say to all the models, great job.

Model- Chakarra Lumas
The studio, Moca DC, is always a great studio to work from. He allows artist to rent space, at a great price. This studio is the undiscovered gem in DC, that any photographer needs to discover.

The stylists, for the shoot, were very fun and vibrant. The clothes were well made, and very cute. The designers seemed great to work with, and I applaud their work.

The makeup for the models, in my opinion, looked very beautiful, and very camera ready. In my opinion, flawless! That is one thing that I love and that is to see a model with flawless makeup. The reason that I state this is because, when I am retouching a person's face, and you find that you spend a lot of time retouching a face, it makes me feel like I am doing two jobs. The make up artist job and mine. I will say that this did not happen, and I am very relieved. Each artist took their time with the young ladies and the work was absolutely  stunning.



So......................in a nutshell, the shoot went great and everything was awesome.

I will state that I lost a few cards, so please, if I don't mention your name, call and curse me out, later in the week! Also, there were too many pics and not enough space, so I will be creating a slide show, soon.
