So my good friend Brittany Grass asked me a while back if we could do a photo shoot for her promo of her upcoming album, we both agreed we wanted the look of the shoot to be a throw back to the golden era of Hollywood and the 1940’s. About a month ago I began to conceptualized hair and makeup and pull dresses and accessories for the shoot which we decided would be held in Central Park. So last saturday was the big day and Brittany, photographer Curtis Bryant and myself stepped back in time to a world of silver screens and starlets, and this was the end result….ENJOY!

The premise of the shoot was to capture the essence of Brittany and her music, and the sheer elegance that she exudes made it easy for her to look natural while we shot. The overall shoot was a total success and we couldn’t have picked a more beautiful day in Central Park.

Last Tuesday I got a call from Curtis Bryant that he would be shooting these outrageously beautiful twin models named Sasha & Sable Boykin, down in Battery Park. Being the avid #League2010 member that I am, I rushed downtown immediately to meet Curtis and fellow #League2010 member Sergio Wonder. I was introduced to the girls, and was totally awe-struck to say the least, they are a rare breed, and their beauty was paralyzing. They informed us that they needed Curtis to shoot some promo shots of them for a possible signage to a Modeling Agency here in New York. So with that info in mind, we knew we had to rock this shoot! The girls were so natural, Sergio and I didn’t even have to do much styling, they pulled outfits galore out of the tiny bags they carried (mark of true models) complete with makeup and accessories. Actually Sergio and I were playing in the children’s playground until we realized we had to help Curtis, lol #oops! But, below are some of my favorite shots from the day with the girls in sequential order.

*Inside Fact* – The title of the shoot “The Dollies” was taken from the word “Dalai” and the buddhist monks who you see in those vibrant orange robes. Genius no?…ah that Curtis Bryant is a master of play on words, ie “Moose-Hunters” of “Muse-Hunters”, yeah get into it!

Models: Sasha & Sable Boykin

Stylists: Sergio Wonder and James Field

Special thanks to Curtis Bryant of Moose-Hunters, Sergio Wonder of Runway Wonderland and of course our beautiful models Sasha & Sable Boykin.

#TheLeague strikes again!

Circumstances arose and his model had to cancel, so randomly I was the substitute! We went over to a beautiful street in my neighborhood of Harlem and shot some amazing photos! Here are some of my personal favorites..enjoy!
