So sorry to leave you hanging these past couple of days!  The good news is that I am now ready to share the shooting I did on Saturday night.

(You don’t need to say that 3x fast…what a tongue twister!)

The Coming 2 America African Explosion Fashion Show for 2016 was an amazing success!

Hosted at the Durham Armory, models of all ages got together for the Coming 2 America African Explosion Fashion Show.  This was hosted and run in support of The Queen of Hearts Project, a non-profit that encourages girls and women to be their most confident selves through education and leadership.

The Durham Armory was a great venue for this event.

I went to shoot and capture the behind-the-scenes as everyone got ready, and it gave me great insight to the awesome sauce that started this Saturday night event.

Instead of trying to describe the energy and the passion, let me show you—>

Do you see what I mean?!
