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.

Girl About Town

A “Girl about Town” is just a woman who is confident and knows exactly who she is. She cruises around town effortlessly while she tends to her livelihood. Enter Tia Reid..talented singer/songwriter/model. The perfect muse for this project. I collaborated with her recently to update her look for her portfolio. Upon meeting her, I realized Tia had the perfect mix of edgy and sweetness, so I definitely wanted the wardrobe to reflect her energy. The theme was easy…dressy casual chic with a touch of luxe. Navigating through the streets of Washington D.C to find the perfect locations for her different outfit choices was a lot of fun. We were even lucky enough to find some really nice dog owners who let us use their super cute friends in cameos for some of the images. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
