A belated mother's day post. This wonderful mother and daughter, Brooke and Tatum, came into the studio. These two are beautiful both inside and out, just such sweet and loving people. They also came with amazing wardrobes to work with which made my life easy in coordinating the outfits for the shoot - as the results below show.

The gorgeous Ashleigh. Ashleigh came in with a suitcase of clothes which made it easy to choose which ones to wear during the portrait session. My major tip - one tight outfit to show off your curves, a scarf - makes any outfit versatile, and a little black dress - always makes for a timeless beauty portrait.

I love black and white portraits. They remind me of old hollywood glamour. They can give you more freedom to add a bit more drama to a beauty portrait.  
I think the following girls looks stunning in black and white.

Michael Buble is a sweetheart. Watch the video - I love how he gave this guy a chance! I just love how genuine he is... and enough gushing from me! 
 

So I love shooting women and shooting fashionesque inspired images. Annie works in fashion and came in with a fantastic wardrobe - which we did discuss in length about what to wear how we'd style her air and makeup and where we would shoot. I think she rocked Brooklyn Heights. Check out her gold shoes on the outdoor shoot - seriously LOVE them!! She had a newly cut fringe/ bangs so we wanted to get her new look out there! 
 
I worked with Amanda from Love Your Face Beauty and by worked I mean I set up the studio and clothing while Amanda made Annie look even more gorgeous than she normally looks! 
 
Thank you Annie for coming out to play!
