I had the pleasure of collaborating with uber talented hair stylist, Mandy MacFadden, photographer Allysa Cervantes & Wardrobe Stylist Vanessa Sanchez on the below images. They were submitted for the Contessa Hair Stylist Awards contest in Spring of this year. I had a really good feeling about the submission, so it was no surprise when I found out that Mandy took home the best hair stylist of the year award for 2016!! Always such an awesome feeling being involved with stylists who are recognized for their excellence by the beauty industry :D

Below are the final images as well as some behind the scenes photos I shot during the shoot:

Congratulations once again to Mandy for an awesome job with these hair creations!!! Kudos to our creative team and the beautiful models for pulling off these amazing looks :D

Some behind the scenes photos I shot with my iPhone during our "Most Wanted" editorial photoshoot for fashion publication FSHN Unlimited (Freshly released on news stands a couple days ago). We actually shot this way in advance during Summer 2014 so it's been a long time coming but definitely worth the wait to see our work in print & in tangible form. I had a great time collaborating with this talented crew ~ regardless of the fact that it was a soggy, rainy day, we made due and worked it out. The Overcast day actually gave the images a nice even light for talented photo duo Jane & Jane. The models had amazing energy and synergy. Dylan did an awesome job with hair and both Dylan and Emily did a fantastic job with sourcing all of the outfits and pairing all the pieces in a creative & edgy way ;)
