SEPTEMBER FEVER!!

Hey Guys!! The past 5 days have been FANTASTIC! I've managed to come across some cool vtg finds and work with pretty amazing people. On Saturday, Ricky and I had a shoot with beautiful model AMBER NEALON. She was so pleasant and very sweet. We had an awesome time shooting. Here are a few pics from amber's shoot. The rest of them will premiere on my store's new site September 29th! Mark your calenders guys! I am also doing a facebook sale from september 17th thru 29th on my CHAITEAVINTAGE like page. Please check it out!

Yesterday we had the pleasure of working with (THE DREAM TEAM) as I like to call them. Three beautiful and extremely talented and creative females. Fab make up artist KOKO GUERRA , fab stylist KIA DENISE and fab hair stylist DOMINIQUE NICOLE , When I tell you these girls play no games I'm soo serious. Please take some time out to check out their work. Some people ask why I chose another stylist to work on this shoot and I say why not? I love meeting new people and working with creative minds and I thought kia would be perfect for the job and I also wanted to meet the trio and watch them work. Here are a few pics from that shoot which will also be featured on my new site.

I would like to thank everyone whom I worked with this weekend! You guys are phenomenal and I'm so happy the way the way the photographs turned out. Especially my hubbs Sammy! You are the best boyfriend in the world. No man could ever amount to you in a trillion years. Special shoutout to Models: Salena & Tracy for ROCKING the shoot yesterday!!! Chileeeeeeee!! Until next time! Love you 2 pieces ♥ Cali

After The Storm

G'day mate!

Here are a few photos taken Sunday after the tropical storm cleared out and our power restored. The winds were still pretty strong on Sunday but it couldn't stop the dynamic duo of Cali & Sammy lol. Whilst the rest of the city stayed in, we decided to go out and snap a few shots and enjoy the beautiful day. We had so much fun. I decided to wear a shirt I found thrifting a few weeks ago. It's a size 16 but I thought turning it into a dress would be cool. What do u guys think? I paired it with a tan linen blazer and a black belt and tan heels.

T33n Philly Mag

Can you believe summer is almost over? Are you in tears? I am!!! I love the summer but fall is my favorite season. I know, I tell u guys that already. If you remember in June my post about Ricky , I told you about a pool shoot we did but couldn't release the photos. Well today I reveal them. Some you might have already seen If you checked out T33NPHILLYMAGAZINE lately. What is T33n Philly Mag?? Teen Philly Mag is a very dope up & coming online magazine strictly for the teens in Philly! It’s created by my girl Jovonna Townsend, whom is also
the owner of Joni models Inc. We had a blast working on this shoot for the magazine as well as a few others you all will see within the next few weeks.

First, I would like you to check out a pic I call "Daydreamer". We actually didn't like how this photo turned out but once ricky edited it and changed the background from a plain white wall to a room of clouds how could u not be endlessly in love with it? Also below are a few more photos from the shoot.

Hope you all enjoy the photos as much as I do. Stay tuned for more fun fun funnn shoots! :)


Make sure you check out T33NPHILLYMAGAZINE every month for more updates on what's going with the Philly teens! :)
Love you 2 pieces ♥

Begining Of A New Era

On Saturday, I assisted on a shoot with my team Samantha (My MUA) and Ricky (My
Photographer). This shoot was for Sam’s portfolio. I call it “Shattered”!! When
Sam originally pitched the idea I was thinking “How the heck is she going to pull that off” She sure as hell showed me lol….The model, Danielle, was
absolutely the perfect fit for the shoot. Her eyes, skin, and make-up

was flawless. Very gorgeous girl with a beautiful personality, if I told you this was her very first photoshoot would you believe me? No? It really was and she crushed each shot so effortlessly. I can’t wait to work on the shoots we have in tore for August and September. I love working with people who share the same passion as you and that you can sit with for hours coming up with concepts and putting them into realistic dreams each time with each photograph is so incredible to me. Above are a few photos from the shoot. I also attached links to their work so you can check it out.

The Return Of The Crazy Gal!

My computer has been down forever you guys. :( I’m stealing wifi from starbucks on my neighbors laptop at the moment while sipping on the best cinnamon dolce in the world. I’ve been living and loving everything and everyone. Below are a few photo’s of my “July” which seemed to have went by super fast.… Am I the only one who felt that way??? I took a break from everything and I adored every minute of it. However, I am now extremely siked and I can’t wait to start blogging, shooting and updating my store. I have a few shoots set up for August. I’m currently working on buying a Macbook Pro, because, my little crappy laptop can’t be saved for much longer. Enough with my babbling, enjoy your time with your loved ones and most importantly enjoy this freakin awesome weather. Autumn is near! So, live in the moment now!

Love you 2 pieces ♥
