Sound Waves

Greetings Readers!

Let me start this post by saying that MUSIC IS POWERFUL!

Music is emotional medicine. It is a gift from our Divine Creator to help us uplift, heal and restore ourselves. Music stirs the soul. It sets the mood and changes it based on the lyrics, the harmony, and the tempo. Music enhances creativity... it definitely does mine and I LIVE for it! Personally speaking, music moves me in a way I cannot explain. As a matter of fact, I've been bouncing and shaking to it since my crib days. If I hear something I like even now, my immediate reaction is to start grooving regardless of who is around. I am not ashamed! I enjoy listening to a variety of genres, but not a day goes by that I don't play a song or two or twenty. It's all in my DNA, you know beats, vibes and such, so it's part of my regular routine. My mental thrives on that daily dose of dopamine.

Music dives deep within and reaches the depths of which nothing else even comes close. It is an encounter that has the ability to evoke a full range of emotion, from love and happiness to joy and pain, and I am pretty sure a song exists to help us get through WHATEVER we go through. Music just feels good, it's soothing and euphoric. It is the soundtrack for our lives! Music is so bold and volumes it speaks. It’s light, it’s heavy, it’s shallow, it’s deep. I mean think about it, even our hearts are on beat and ain’t that a rhythmic treat? Music is a truly revolutionary experience.

So this concept, centered around my joy of music, was truly a no brainer for me. I felt I just had to create something dedicated to one of my favorite pastimes which is listening. Cayla, our model for this concept, brought youthful energy and good vibes times one thousand. She seemed to know exactly what I was looking for with every single frame. She also shared with me that she loves music from the 90's era... Dig that! Now we present to you, "Sound Waves". Enjoy!

Boudoir 101... Classy, Elegant & Tastefully Sexy!

Greetings Readers!

First, we would like to thank each and every one of you for helping us to surpass the 15,000 viewership mark! We are so excited to share our work on a global scale and are even more excited for what is to come in this New Year. One thing is for certain, we will continue to bring you more great stories and more beautiful images!

The TEAM returns with a session that COMPLETELY pushed us outside of the box. We have been asked about Boudoir Photography many times in the past, but it was a topic we were previously not even considering as part of our brand. Well, I guess you can say we were asked enough times, that we finally decided to expand and give it a try. I reached out to model, Asia to see if she wanted to step outside of the box with us and she was ALL IN. The planning for our very first Boudoir shoot was underway!

As with all of our other concept shoots, and probably even more so with this one, we were very strategic in planning for how we wanted to present it. Ultimately, we wanted it to be classy, sophisticated and tasteful, treading the line, but never crossing it. Of course, we had to call on our favorite Nashville make-up artist, Tynita Lee, to come and provide a transformative experience for Asia. In addition, I made my debut as not just a style consultant, but as the OFFICIAL stylist for the entire shoot. Pulling together pieces to match the mood of each pose change during the session (special shout to Tena Bingham for her wardrobe assistance!) Check out a sneak peek from our shoot below!

We truly love what we do and it is SO MUCH FUN to see our creative ideas come to life! Stay tuned... the TEAM is just getting started for 2018! For more information on our make-up artist, we have provided her links below.

Divalicious Behavior...

The Dynamic Duo is BACK!

We recently joined forces with our MUA, Tynita Lee, for a style concept shoot, and I must say that this lady has something special. If a class was being taught on how to be FIERCE without over doing it, Tynita would definitely be the instructor!

Tynita is a make-up artist from Nashville,TN, who has the gift of making her clients look amazing (I know because I am one of them)! She also has the innate ability to work a camera, which is a skill you cannot teach. In addition to being fierce, she has a killer walk and a glance that can stop you in your tracks!

Sean and I have worked with Tynita for about three years now, and she continues to deliver quality results and an excellent work ethic. She is intent on continuing to grow in her craft in an impressive way. We titled this shoot, "Divalicious Behavior", because of Tynita's style and knack for walking into a crowded room and owning it! Check out some of the images from that day, that had onlookers stopping to watch! She was DIVALICIOUS!
