Insecure vs. Confident

Model: NicoleB. MUA: Tally Hill. Creative Director: Crystal Harris. Photographer: Tim Harris

If you didn't catch Nicole on the previous post... you absolutely have to focus on this one. This was a real breakout session for the model/designer. As we prepped for weeks to get the creative content ready for the shoot, Nicole discussed her desire to make something landmark in her portfolio. This was a stretch for her because she felt insecure about her look and the response it might draw but she loved the challenge of doing something outside of the usual. She pulled in her emotions and decided, I love the look and the plan... let's do it.

Expanding to Nashville, TN region

WOW, It's really here. The day we pack up our things and head to Nashville, TN. Crystal and I have been talking about doing it for almost a year now and it's finally coming to fruition. It's not so much just because we want to go but there is another business driven purpose that started this planning. A business problem created the question but all that did was drive us to our knees for God's wisdom and guidance. He did the rest.

Now we have to get everything in place so the move will be as short of a process as possible. We only hope that we can do this in 24 hours.

I'll keep updating the blog with the latest news.

In the meantime, I hope you like the next post. It's a refresh of an image from January with a gorgeous and talented model.

Boudoir Session gone right!

It's super cool when a session goes the right way. The customer pays on time, the customer arrives on time, the MUA is cooperative, the MUA is on time and the customer is gorgeous! That's almost too much to ask for in one shoot.


Oh, did I mention it was a boudoir shoot on top of everything else. I would say that makes us very blessed!


One of our favorite MUA's (MUA=make up artist for those who might not know) is Tally Hill. Tally's been doing make-up since she was a very young girl. Even though she's still young in comparison to us, she's got over 10 years experience in working her magic. We first met Tally when we shot Starla Schuh's images for her portfolio. She brought Tally with her as her makeup artist.


Since that time, we've developed a great relationship with Tally and it's become a good friendship as well. Tally did the work for this shoot as well as providing the referral from the very beginning. Thank you Tally!!!!


So let me introduce, Jessica Price... not a model... just a beautiful young woman!

We truly do love our customers. We have been blessed to work with so many wonderful people. It's a blessing when they can accomplish the tasks for the modeling and still be entertaining to work with. Nicole was definitely both. Love, Love, Love this part of the job.

FOCUS... by Gabrielle Mary Lewis

God, help me to zero in.
Help me to cut out the nonsense, the distractions and the fluff.
I’m tired of time wasters and the things that pull me away from you.
The things that look good and seem important but only cause me to forget you.
Harmless things may not be so harmless.
Help me to discipline myself, discipline me.
Help me to filter out the things that don’t belong in my mind and my eyes and my ears.
I want to look at you. I want to clearly hear your voice.
Be my Focus. Let me forget “my” carnal focus.
Let me see you, nothing else will matter.
Lord, let me focus on my task.
Let my labors be in service of you.
For Your eternal glory and honor.

Amen.

Look out for Nicole Box... She's bustin' out!

We have several customers who've come in for model portfolios and when they do, we are always giving them the "does he/she really have what it takes to make it?" question.


Well let me tell you, this young lady is going to make it one day. She's working through her paces now but she's steadily getting better and better. Look out fashion world... Nicole is busting out of the box!
