Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of creating the cover for the April Issue of Elevate Magazine. I'm not sure which they'll pick, but my favorite is above. It's a pretty important issue--the publication of their annual "Best of the City" list. This sort of photography requires a great team of collaborators and I totally lucked out.
To start, my model is beauty royalty--Elizabeth Safrit, the reigning Miss NC United States. She's going for the national title.
Jennifer Misenheimer, is a long time creative partner and helped by styling the clothes, which we got from by Lipp Boutique, doing the hair (Jennifer was named Charlotte's best hair-stylist for 2013), and helping coach the model.
Angie Cottone, is a former model and extremely talented makeup artist. We've done cover shoots before and are doing another editorial tomorrow. She did Elizabeth's face.
Knowing I wanted a skyline view at sunset, I arranged to borrow a condo on the side of town that would place the skyline between. The condo is for sale--$1-million, just in case you like the view.
Here's some behind the scenes the images:
