"Make what you do feel like CHRISTMAS," they said. The anticipation, the excitement, and the BEST present ever.

This was the advice I got from not one, but TWO biz moguls I look up to. I guess the Universe reeeeeally wanted to make sure that I was paying attention?!

And so for the first time in a long time, I PLAYED.

For my clients. And for mySELF.

Because when Chantal booked me for a super FUN photoshoot with her BFF of nearly 20 years, I KNEW we’d better make it a kick-ass experience. So I may or may not have SQUEEEEEED out loud when she said "an emphatic YES!" to my request to break out the colored powder.

Yup, we got some posed + playful shots in normal clothes first. But then we pumped up some dramatic opera music (her request) + let the color FLY.

And pure MAGIC happened.
