It's January!



Hello All!! So 2019 huh? The first month of this year is almost over and how has 2019 been treating you so far? It has been a bit rough on the Illinois side of the river lots of snow and cold weather but again it is January in the Midwest so it is not too big of a surprise LOL. I did have a chance to take some great shots of the cutest little bit in the snow the other day and it was so much fun. I mean we were only a few steps away from the warmth of the house so no biggie right? Because of the weather I wanted to continue to utilize the studio set up and get my lighting techniques on point. Last year I started using the studio set up and decided that I wanted to have each Rep have an individual session using the set up. If you remember we did a fun shoot with Alyssa and her outfit was a bit over the top but very pretty and feminine and then with Delaney we did a 20's Gatsby themed shoot with her and her boyfriend. We have had Kenzie and Sammi's shoots planned for awhile but what with Christmas and everything else going on we just could not make it happen until now. So I will be releasing their shoots over the next month or two so keep an eye out for them. I also wanted to take a minute or two to let you all know that I am on the hunt for the best new Reps in this and the outlying areas. So if you want to be on the team email me, call me, text me whatever just reach out. I will be having two teams this year one team with kids ages 10 through 16 who will be coined the Chicklet team and girls and guys who are 2020 or 2021 seniors and they will be the Fly Girls or Guys. I have a lot of things planned for this season and really want a full team of 12 to 20 Reps between the two teams. So again hit me up to be on the team. 

I am sure some of you have seen the posts about the shoe drive we are featuring but just to reiterate we are asking for new or gently used shoes. I have a company that will purchase them from me and the money we make will be donated to the Red Nose Day campaign we are all so excited to be giving back to this amazing charity. We are also going to be doing a sock drive for the homeless later in the year as well as helping out wherever we can in our home towns. This really will be a fun and giving rep season so come on and join already! Just to give you an idea of my style and what a rep does I will post some of the studio shots from last year and a few surprise shots for this years studio shots. Enjoy Oh and join the team you will not regret it!!! Head on over and check out more of my work at my website haloandwingsphotography.com

The Andrews Sisters

Hello everyone!! Happy summer to you all, and boy has it been a hot one so far. I do have a couple of announcements for you, I am currently booking 2019 Senior sessions and I have two great session options to choose from neither one is a bad choice. So if you want pictures that show off your personality and not what the schools want from you then make sure and hit me up. The other announcement I have is that I am looking for 2017, 2018 and 2019 Seniors to model for me. I have a couple of fun ideas for mini shoots so again hit me up if your interested. 

Now onto the fun stuff.... 
How many of you have heard of the Andrews Sisters, you know of Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy fame? So anyway I wanted to show off a little of that 1940's glamour and let you into the Andrews Sisters world of USO tours and supporting the troops. Hair and Makeup is by the Fabulous Karina and I did all the styling, not to shabby if I do say so myself. Enjoy! oh and Happy 4th of July
