July 28-31st Catalina Island~Get Image Ready Trip

Our Get Image Ready team had the honor of heading to Catalina Island to shoot some beautiful clients this month!
We stayed in Dana Point for one night and took a ferry out to the island. And what a small island it was! There are NO cars (because it takes 9 years to get a vehicle permit!) but there were TONS of golf carts and bicycles to travel with. We walked everywhere!! My poor swollen feet didn't do well, but the weather was so beautiful it just didn't matter. We wore sweaters! Ahhh, loved it.
The first day on the island, we got together for a team building meeting and coaching lesson with the awesome Dr. Karen Jacobson. It was such an empowering moment for all of us! I can't wait to see what GIR has in store in the years to come!
Here are some shots until the Get Image Ready Magazine comes out!

July 22nd~Vederre Magazine Shoot with Dawn Powers

Sunday we had a great team of artists get together to shoot an exclusive piece for Vederre Fashion Magazine. Our beautiful model was the very talented musician Dawn Powers, hair was done by our own Glam Squad Shannon Zeluff with Studio 3 Salon and Erica Smith with Classic Cinema Makeup Artistry! My great photog buddy Rizalde Sherwood of Studio World Photography shot with me. It was definitely an interesting and FUN shoot!! We headed out to the Salt River to capture some beautiful backgrounds. The water was gross and the bottom was slimy but it was so worth the "shot". :)

Here's a couple behind the scene shots with my camera phone! :) I can't wait til the magazine releases so I can put them up!
