I believe in reinventing myself. Updating, stretching and challenging myself to grow. I think of the metamorphosis as being similar to the changing seasons.

Summer time, Memorial Day to Labor Day, Fall, September, October and November and the Holidays straddle November, December and January when it all begins again.

This past month I assigned myself a photo shoot. Yep, once in a while I’ve got to stretch myself by working for me. I was my own client. I work for so many clients that I seldom have the opportunity to shoot just for me.

So I scheduled myself back into the studio with my favorite dream team crew. My “dream team crew” are the best! My playlist: a photo-tech, digital tech, wardrobe person, and grooming person. I even bring in my own music and a working lunch for all.

Then I started casting for models looking in all the right and normal places: Ford, Willy, Product, Generations and Funny Faces, all the biggies in the kids agency business. And of course I posted a casting call on TheCuteKid.com.

I was so delighted with the overwhelming response.

Thank you CuteKid moms, dad and kids for your enthusiasm and inspiration. You made it all work.

I invited three cute kids: sister and brother, Haley and Zachary, and Nicholas. This photo op wasn’t only a first for them, but a double treat for Haley and Zach as they had never been to New York City. Nicholas was also brand new entering a studio. We all felt the excitement.

Their hidden talent was beyond my expectations. It is just amazing how comfortable and professional these kids were in front of the camera. I am so very proud of them for their stamina and discipline maintained throughout their “magical model tour.” I totally believe there is a bright future for these kids.

My next blog will show you the “how to process” from “before and after.”
Please stay tuned and share these exciting “after” pictures with me.
