Fashion Editorial: Dreams in Color (Part 1)

I’m so inspired by color. Color revitalizes me, rejuvenates me and is my main source of inspiration in a lot of projects I take on. So you have to imagine how excited I was to be a part of creating and styling this project. Dreams in Color embodies Black Girl Magic at its finest. Showcasing women of color basking in color in all of their glory and undeniable beauty while enjoying all that nature has to offer. For this project, I worked with an amazing team of creatives and we all had the same goal of just enjoying ourselves and letting our work shine through. I won’t type too much text this time around instead I’ll let the images speak for themselves.

Amenze's 30th Birthday Editorial Spring Fashion Shoot

A huge reason why I style is to make people feel happy about themselves. I enjoy the look of satisfaction on a client’s face when I am able to help bring their vision to life. That hint of pure glee when he/she looks in the mirror to see his/her reflection staring back and looking amazing. It always makes me feel good when I’m able to help others feel great. So cue this photoshoot with Amenze. A client who wanted to celebrate turning 30 by treating herself to a new look, a personal styling session curated and styled by Ascots and Pearls and a photoshoot by PhabandCo.

As you know turning 30 is a big deal! So I definitely wanted to Amenze to enjoy the looks and accessories that I styled for her so that she would have a great time at her photoshoot. She wanted clothing and accessory options that were spring ready with a bit of an edge. Overall, Amenze was very happy with the final looks and her photoshoot was so much fun. Here are some of the images from that shoot. Want to see some behind the scenes footage of this project? Then check out my highlights at the top of my Instagram profile.
