| The Dazzle Cartel... our first OFFICIAL shoot! |
I've been busy preparing to launch my business The Dazzle Cartel.
The Dazzle Cartel (TDC) is a full service glamour squad. We have hairstylists, make-up artists, wardrobe stylists, nail artists, graphic artists, and photographers. TDC provides the following services: hair styling, weave installations, make-up artistry, nail art, styling closet, personal shopping, photography, and quality hair extensions and products.
There is sooo much going on right now. Anyway, My business partner/BFF Ci Maria and I did our first photoshoot for the business. We've been doing some press and we don't have any promotional pictures! For the shoot, we wanted to show ourselves in our natural element.
As some of you may or may not know, I've done some modeling before. I've been published in about 5 hair mags and W Magazine. You would think I wouldn't be nervous right? Wrong lol. I retired from modeling and I recently decided 2011 will be my year to come back. For me personally, that's a lot of pressure. These pictures are like a mass representation of the business and of us! We own a glam squad and claim to be like the flyest, most fabulous newcomers in the game. "." PERIOD lol
The nerves came from the new look, not being prepared, and potentially overthinking everything, as I tend to do.
We got some great shots though! All is well that ends well!
Myron Watkins aka TheMrMr was the photographer for our first shoot. He is also our official photographer!! Check him out www.myronwatkins.com.
Ci Maria did all of the wardrobe styling for the shoot. The dress and the jewelry are vintage. They are apart of our styling closet. I got the dress from a vintage store in DC. We did the shoot in DC. Our hair was done by TDC Hairstylist and Salon Zero Degrees owner (who is also my cousin) Ms. Mika! Make-up was done by Kris. She has done some work with our other hairstylists before. I think she did a pretty good job on my face. Especially with my foundation. I can't wait to post the pictures !Labels: Ci Maria, photoshoot, The Dazzle Cartel, TheMrMr |
