Beauty & Possibilities - My Photography Journey

Joy Beauty Portrait Session Fashion Flirty Florals 1 Openshoot  

JAENZ BEAUTY PORTRAIT SESSION Fashion Flirty Florals 1 Openshoot  

So last weekend we had a collab with a group of photographers and we used some of my gowns from my wardrobe collection for the shoot. I also adorned some of the models with the fused glass jewelry that I created previously. I had so much fun that I decided my 3rd FASHION FLIRTY OPEN SHOOT EVENT will be one indoors. This kicked off my planning stage. I wanted this shoot to be a fully thought out, conceptual shoot with full on accessories, jewelry and wardrobe.... I met with one of my makeup artists to talk about a few ideas and today i have created a fb group that would serve as the "meeting ground" for the concept shoot team that is on private...and ill only add those participating in the event. The concept i have decided on is THE ELEMENTS OF ALCHEMY.... each model with represent an element as envisioned by the designers.... EARTH...FIRE...WIND/AIR....WATER.... AETHER.... and a sixth element METAL.... here are some of the details for the planning stage... 1......

As i was preparing for my first open shoot, I would go through some of my friend list and send some people an invite to join. One of those i sent a message to was Ms. Angel. I was excited that she responded positively and so happy when she reserved. Angel was the first person i met when I arrived on the day of the shoot...she was bright eyed and beautiful and so very friendly. I also learned that Angel is a blogger and a makeup artist as well...two things that I myself am hoping to get into more. As we chat sometimes online, I keep learning more about her and that we have similar interests. I discovered too that she used to work as an assistant stylist for photoshoots, commercials and magazines. She too is a business woman and has an online shop like I do. She makes her own accessories and creates unique bracelets and necklaces Angel's smile in her photos is so heartwarming, you can really see she is a joyful and warm person and I can't wait to get a chance to have anothe...

I would never have guessed that this is Ms. Erich Lee's first open shoot...i believe posing for her is just something natural. She already knows how to project so well... whether you want her to smile or have a serious look, she has it down pat. And the best thing...Erich will be joining part 2 of our florals open shoot...so for sure you will get to see more awesome pics from her...for now let's take a look at part 1.... Here are her shots from my open shoot.To get to know a little about each one, i asked them to answer a few questions....

Last Saturday, my first event happened.... and it was one of my most favorite concepts.... Flowing and flowery maxi skirts.... I called the event FASHION FLIRTY FLORALS... The event was at QC Wildlife and I was able to reserve the grotto area for a more exclusive shoot and experience. More on the BTS in the following posts...but i wanted to share how beautiful the models were...here is a sneak peek, teaser shots of each of them...   Each model gets a teaser photo posted a few days after the shoot...then after the teaser photo, I go back and work on 10 edited photos for each model. I am also currently trying to come up with a surprise for the participant but ill announce that later on when i have finished what needs to be done... More on each featured model. Happy Shooting and Good Vibes to all...
