Unique Beauty: CHRISHELL STUBBS

I am probably extremely late on this but I just noticed this unique beautiful model named Chrishell, now that I think about it I have seen one of her pictures before but it wasn't something that stuck to me like Chanel Iman or Sessilee Lopez but if you have been living under a rock like myself then you can be introduced to her now as well. LOL...
 A tid bit about Chrishell is that she is from Turks and Caicos she first made her debut as an 18 year old in 2007 appearing in Teen Vogue. In Fall 2010, she hit the big runway shows, modeling for Ralph Lauren, Vera Wang and Lacoste (just to name a few). If your like me, then you like to follow beautiful african american or of color models on their journey to the top! Here are some more pictures....

Below is a picture of Chrishell in her younger modeling

days....

Not to forget to mention her amazing long natural hair, I'm a fan. :D

Sneak Peak Men's Fashion Shoot!

So, last night I provided makeup for another dope photoshoot. It featured Men this time! yess, I wanted to showcase that men can look cool in makeup as well. The shoot featured my wonderful boyfriend Gillie, and his best friend Enrique. We decided on a "Modern Rat Pack" theme and the second look was a "creature of the night" dark yet masculine with the tuxedo jacket and vest. The shoot took about 4 hours and these are just some of the pictures I captured with my own camera, the professional ones are going to be sick! Check out the looks below....

Makings of a Model



We had some free time so me being the inspired photographer that I am,
we decided to have an impromptu photoshoot.



My sister has a very natural talent to not care and just let herself flow whether with people she knows or strangers. Her dream is to someday be a plus size fashion model. What I admire most about her is that she is very serious and professional. What do you think? Do you think she might have what it takes?
