Appreciation post! I can not thank Dr. Keia Brown, the founder of the system enough.

Years ago in the midst of a pandemic she asked me could I give a small presentation on the importance of having a good headshot. I spoke to 5 young ladies at MaryMount University about the importance of having a good headshot and how to go about it.

Who would of thought 3 years later I would have the opportunity to photograph state and national queens for this amazing organization.

Thank you for believing in me and allowing me to be apart of of this organization. I’m excited to for all the new things to come next year.
