Hey there!
I've been having a great time with my models and my shoots, and I have a rather nice story with this particular subject,
Shelly. I still had not confirmed a subject for my upcoming open shoot (my concept was to photograph a woman with wild, sexy hair while mock singing) and I was trying to organize the details while walking to the bus stop. There in front of me stopped at the crosswalk was a woman with a beautiful set of
dreadlocks...and I thought...."God has placed this hair in front of me so I could photograph it". Upon passing the woman, I complimented her hair and asked if she had done any modelling, and when I asked if she would model for my shoot, she eagerly accepted! Very fortunate moment. Serendipity!

| Shelly rockin' out on my hairdryer, March 2012 |
When she arrived at the studio, she was dressed to kill and very stunning in her gold high heeled boots and glamour fashion. It turns out Shelly is a rap artist looking to update her image and was searching for a photographer. Just goes to show, you never know who you're talking to! :P Shelly was a natural in front of the camera and brought my idea to life. This image makes me smile because one has to look twice to realize the subject is not holding a microphone, but is instead singing into my
Conair hairdryer. Great shoot. Great subject. Great image. :)~ Thanks, Shelz
