WHAT GETS YOU MOVIN’: BTS with SFX Photography & Ashley Trifiletti

18 Jul

On the second official day of summer I had the pleasure of shooting behind the scenes footage for Stephan B. Austin, of SFX Photography. He specializes in shooting fitness models, and on this hot day, over at Orienta Beach Club, in Mamaroneck, New York, we shot fitness model and competitor, Ashley Trifiletti. With the upbeat tunes that Ashley and her sister picked, we had a great early morning shoot and that sanguine vibe translated in the video.

Enjoy!

Videographer: Jai Nima Idowu

It’s a fun, vibrant, psychedelic video…and all I can say is I kind of need those blue heels and an incredible hulk balloon in my life!

Check out images from Storm Over the Boardwalk here .

I’m addicted to The mis-Adventures of Awkward Black Girl! It’s a web series that I was told about in the late Summer by my coworker homie, who actually knows creator, Issa Rae. He told me he thought I’d like it (probably because of my own awkwardness), and that I should check it out. At the […]

Nothing serious, just someone or sometimes a subject/entity that heightens my radar for the moment. I’m always sharing […]
