Editorial: Jennie Fresa
We recently got together with adorable Jennie Fresa to shoot headshots for her and her team, for the unveiling of her new brand: Jennie Fresa Makeup and Skincare Boutiquerie A few days before the shoot, I shot Jennie an email that went a little something like this, “Hey, I’m thinking we ditch the whole vanilla headshot approach and go for something a little more….Vanity Fair. What do you say…are you down?” And being the embodiment of fabulous that she is….she was.
And so, our first ever foray into editorial portraiture was born.
What can I say….we could get used to this stuff.
