LAURA, NAPLES FLORIDA MODEL FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER

I specialize in high school senior clients and model portfolio clients. If you asked me what my favorite genre to shoot is, it would be those two arenas. This client above and below was one of my recent model portfolio shoots. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Laura. She was in need of new images for her modeling comp cards so we hit the ground running with some awesome looks. She's a gorgeous girl and will make her mark on this world in a big way.

As with my senior sessions, my modeling clients have the option of working both in the studio and on location somewhere. With Laura, we started in the studio and then moved outdoors for a completely different look. Here is some of her studio images...

And as always...we have lots of fun...

FIERCE is an understatement!

And back outside for a few more of her awesome looks on location here in Southwest Florida (Naples)...

Holy gorgeous golden light...

Beautiful girl, beautiful night. It was a true pleasure working with you Laura. Thank you for allowing me to help document your portfolio. Big thanks to Praveen Singh of JAMAKEUP.com for the awesome hair and make-up application for this shoot.

BEAUTY & THE BEACH - NAPLES, FLORIDA FASHION & MODEL PHOTOGRAPHER

After three years of living here in Naples, Florida, I still have to pinch myself when I wake up each day and realize that I "live" here. My home is literally down the street from the beach and I get to witness the most amazing Florida sunsets almost every day. With that said, when I moved here, I also had the priviledge of crossing paths with so many wonderful people. One of those wonderful people happens to be Rebecca. Rebecca is a model here in Southwest Florida that I've gotten the opportunity to work with a few times. She's not only gorgeous on the outside but she's beautiful on the inside as well.

Rebecca and I set out to a nearby beach access the other night to capture some sunset/evening shots for her portfolio. It was an amazingly gorgeous evening - as always - here in Florida.

Every shot I was able to capture of her was stunning. This girl can't take a bad photo. Seriously!

I mean...is it really fair that any one human being can be this beautiful? She's flawless. Inside and out.

The beach was quite crowded on this particular night but you'd never know it in these images. The people that were close by cleared out around us and we had paradise abound - all to ourselves.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to work with you again Rebecca. It's always such a pleasure.

Blessings, Angie

MODEL SHOOT - NAPLES, FLORIDA MODEL PHOTOGRAPHER

I get asked a lot if I do sessions for aspiring models. The answer is "Heck yeah!" I offer a comp card package for those individuals in the fashion or model industry wishing to further their dreams or career. I love working with models because they are willing to go along with just about any crazy idea that is thrown their way. This particular shoot was done in an abandoned office building. A building that was several floors high yet the construction had been halted on it. It was completely empty inside with the exception of the random supplies that had been left behind. Needless to say, we put that to good use...

You know how much I love some dirt, some grime, some grunge, and everything in between. Well this location was perfect for the theme of what we were after. At one point, two police officers literally drove into the bottom half of this warehouse/building and sat there for quite a while. Thankfully, they never arrested us for trespassing. In fact, they never even said a word to us about being in there. It was our lucky day. :)

We worked hard for the set up of this reflection shot...

This model knows how to ROCK the poses. She never had to be told what to do or how to do it. In fact, she showed us up with some new tricks...

And the events that went down in order to accomplish these ladder images...well...I'll just let your imagination run wild on that one. Of course the model made it look like a breeze. Such a natural. Lots of team effort to say the least.

This shoot was a great time. I enjoyed every minute of it. It helps when you have a client willing to step out of the box with you and take on a RAD location such as this one which isn't the most "fun" when it comes to the bottom line. It might be an ugly spot but her beauty made it gorgeous. The best part of photography is how you can mix such mediums and end up with a fabulous outcome such as this. The challenge is turning something someone else would consider dreadful (i.e. the location) into something that looks totally awesome when all is said and done.

A big thanks to everyone who helped make this one happen...

Have a ROCK STAR type day. Until the next way cool collection of fun...stay bold and have fun in whatever it is you're doing in life.
