Kindlefest is an annual event for Kerrytown. We all set up booths in the Farmers’ Market area, and people came from all over to celebrte the start of the holiday season. There were lots of vendors with hand made goods and yummy food and drnks fotr everyone. The fire pit and roasted chestnuts smelled really nice, and there were horns playing Christmas music. There were so many shoppers!!
Greg, Camellia, and I were at the booth talking to people about Grateful Dreads.
Fan Cam and Gabi met at Grateful Dreads for quick Kerrytown photoshoot! Fan Cam is an extremely motivated and talented model. Gabi is a talented photographer as well as a gorgeous model! I knew they would really get along, so I was so happy to host this shoot. I love getting artists together for collaborations! We all had fun and got some great photos!!
I had already cut their hair, so I left things pretty natural. I styled Cam’s a little bit, and Gabi did some very light make up.

I took these!
A hip urban feel. I took these photos inside the Kerrytown building. Such a photogenic place!
Thank you Gabi, and thank you Cam! You are both so talented and fun, and you both have amazing style! I think we all enjoyed ourselves. Special thank you to the person who loaned us this great camera!
Maeve is royalty of models. I love working with her and her hair! She’s so gorgeous, highly educated, and speaks from her amazing experiences. So cool! We met early for the shoot and got ready so fast that we went out for breakfast while we waited for Daighna Rayner, the photographer, to arrive. The day before, Maeve came to Grateful Dreads, and I deep conditioned her hair and braided it to dry. When I took out her braid for the shoot, her hair looked beautiful just how it was! I did a little detail work to create some smoothness. Maeve did all of her make up in all of the photos.
This is a very special shoot. I put a lot of myself and my ideas into this and was able to meet with both of my favorite designers, Kelly Lynne and Fotoula Lambros, to pull from their new collections. Given the concept and the model, we were all excited!

The dress in the last picture is the Monroe dress in black by Fotoula Lambros for Fotoula Lambros Design. The dresses in the above pictures are both by Kelly Sager for Kelly Lynne. The machine in the top picture is a Linotype and is how newspapers used to be printed. Maeve looks like she is from that era in Kelly Lynne’s beautiful lacy dress! I really love the red puffy sleaves on the middle dress. So haute couture!
Maeve has amazing energy. Thank you to all of you involved in this shoot!
