Alexa / #Foundby612 - Preview

   The stunningly gorgeous Alexa D. recently returned to 6:12 Photography for another photo shoot with photographer, Eric McKinney. I've been working with Alexa for over a year now, and I'm so proud to see how much she's grown as a model each time we work together. Our goal at this shoot was to let her confidence really shine through. We also decided to let her style the outfits in a way that would emphasize her ethnicity and use that as inspiration for the mood of the shoot. I think Alexa and I can both agree that this photo shoot allowed us to create our best work together thus far.

Fashion/Editorial: Jacob C. - Preview

I had the opportunity to work with model / rockstar, Jacob Covell on an editorial photo shoot. Using some of the looks from "WERK the RUNWAY: Cycle 2," I came up with some interesting outfits for Jacob to wear. We teamed up with makeup artist MUA Missy Young who provided the hair and makeup for the shoot. Jacob had plenty of hair to work with, and even the drizzling rain couldn't mess that up.

Here's a sneak peek...

Fashion/Editorial: Lori C.

   Here's a look at the best photos from my recent shoot with stunning model,  Lori Cannon. I met Lori through the Steampunk and Chakra collections of designers Kelly Jones and Diane Corey, and Lori immediately connected with the 6:12 lens. Since that time, we've shot everything from high fashion to scary clowns, and she's been a part of both cycles of WERK the RUNWAY. She always shows such comfort and ease when she steps in front of the camera, and the photos that we create together are full of intensity.

Take a look at Lori with her new shaved hairstyle...
