I was invited to photograph the Fashion with a Purpose show. The event was a fashion show fundraiser for the Cinderella Foundation that provides assistance for at risk girls. All of my photos appeared on the Facebook event summary posted by the producer on behalf of the foundation.
I photographed the “Ready to Rise 2010” show produced by Planetechic and featuring the creative designs of Svetlana Horvat. The show was hosted at the Carnegie Institute in Washington DC. Below are a few example pics of Svetlana’s appealing designs. Click here to view the full show — “Ready to Rise 2010” .
I met Lily on Facebook and we discussed doing a photo shoot. I noticed that Lily would be working at Frederick Fashion Week and I mentioned that I was planning to be there. She asked if I could get some shots of her at the show. The results are below. The show had a decades theme and Lily’s look was futuristic. But for me the first pic also has a throwback feel and ’50’s starlet look about it — pose, expression, lighting, etc. Hair by Ashley Gerstner of O’Hair Salon, styling by Charelle’s Costume Shop both in Frederick, MD.
