Every teen should have a photoshoot just for them…just for fun…just because. Why? Because this is about the age that little insecurities pop up and it is awesome to see the confidence after just spending a few hours having hair, makeup, laughs and many outfit changes all to have some fun in front of the camera. All to preserve both inner and outer beauty for a lifetime. I personally love it too!

Introducing Celine! She has such a beautiful smile, great laugh and fabulous hair. We infused a bit of fashion into Celine’s session because she might choose to get into a bit of modeling. Since this was her first time having a shoot like this, I wanted to be able to give her a variety of looks, poses and expressions. Just about the time we were wrapping things up, the sun was pure magic in a location that made me wish we could hold the sun up for another hour. But we moved fast and wow…the results were awesome. Enjoy a handful of images and the slideshow to follow. Thank you Celine for a super fun time and thank you to Katie Cotton of Cotton Rouge for her beautiful makeup and hair.

Almost all of us have been touched by cancer in some way and sadly some have been touched more than once.  Greenville, South Carolina is a community that is passionate about cycling AND about raising money for cancer research.  Last year I participated in the Challenge to Conquer Cancer Ride To Austin and it touched me deeply.  The hard work and dedication by everyone was and is admirable.  Some of the riders are currently battling cancer which makes it even more amazing.  This year I decided to create a calendar that merged photography, cycling and raising money to fight this awful disease.  Each of these women graciously donated their time and allowed me the creative freedom to design this 18-month photo calendar…and all with heels on! Some are avid cyclists and others simply enjoy it as a recreation.  Either way, they all have their hearts in the right place and are ready to help raise money for the cause.

Thank you to everyone that participated – including all the girls, Pedal Chic, Cotton Rouge Makeup & Hair Design and Todd Williams of Magnolia Studios.  Two of the days we shot it was nearly 100 degrees and not one single person lost their smile in the process.  Two other girls had to work around some road rash after small accidents.  BUT that is all part of riding.  The last girl’s shoot was just finished and now we are ready to raise some money!!

Tell anyone and everyone about this gorgeous calendar because the more we sell the more money we have to donate 🙂

Your $50 donation will get you a printed copy of this beautiful 18-month calendar, a digital calendar to view on mobile devices AND you will be supporting a great cause.  This is a pre-order as it is much more cost effective to order in bulk.    I will provide a receipt mentioning that this is for a fundraising donation if you would like to write it off on your taxes.  Link to order is here:  ORDER

The cost to print is approximately $24 and the rest will all go to The Challenge To Conquer Cancer.

I sound like a broken record…but THANK YOU!  Link to storefront:  GET YOUR CALENDAR HERE
