She’s My Hero Sponsors
/in Events, Feminine, Giving, Pinup, She's My Hero /by Mell BellTo celebrate women, their diversity and empowerment, mellBella Photography created the She’s My Hero Project to raise funds for the Center for Women.
Back in March for Women’s History Month, we held the She’s My Hero Contest where we asked local women to tell us who their heroes were. The contest winners received a photoshoot from mellBella styled as their hero. Also, each winner received a gift basket filled with donations from local businesses.
The photos from the contest winners will be in the 2019 She’s My Hero Calendar. ALL sales of the Calendar will benefit the Center for Women directly. To be included in the calendar, all sponsors must have all information submitted by August 31st. Silent Auction donations should be submitted by September 28th.
On October 10th at Boone Hall, mellBella Photography along with our fabulous sponsors will host the She’s My Hero Calendar Launch Party. Details and tickets coming soon!
We are looking for sponsors for the calendar & event as well silent auction donations, especially from women-owned businesses. We hope you will partner with us for this event. Contact us to receive more information.

She’s My Hero- Jessica
/in Feminine, Giving, News, Pinup, She's My Hero /by Mell BellWhen we decided we wanted to do a big fundraiser for the Center for Women, we had no idea what we wanted to do. We wanted to honor women. We wanted to support women. And we wanted to do something nice for women who do so much for others by honoring them in a calendar through the She’s My Hero Contest. We asked for submissions, and we had a really, really tough time narrowing it down to 10 women. One of those women was Jessica Kirby. When we read her story and her love of raising the spirits of hospitalized children, we knew she was special.
Before & After with Miss N
/in Before & After, Headshots /by Mell BellYou asked for Before & After Photos, and we answered with Before, After, and WOW with a headshot/beautyshot series we did this month! We like to go BIG, so instead of just 1 or 2 we have 7 different women that we will share their photos with you. First, we took a few Before photos, then AFTER she got her hair and makeup styled, and we recreated those photos again with the same woman, the same outfit, same lighting, and same pose. Then, just because we can, we took some other nice headshots/beautyshots and then we changed the lighting to something completely different and took some other looks. Special thanks to Jessica of Royal Volume Salon for styling Miss N’s fabulous hair and makeup. Without further ado, here’s the first of 7:

She’s My Hero Project Announcement Video
/in Feminine, Giving, News, Pinup, She's My Hero /by Mell BellIt’s been a dream of ours for a long time to create a great fundraiser to celebrate and support women in our community. We didn’t want to do it alone because together we can make an even bigger difference in our world. So, we created the She’s My Hero Project to raise funds for the Center for Women. We chose the Center for Women as our charity because they truly help women succeed personally and professionally through education, skill building, networking, and much more. In addition to raising funds, we also want to raise awareness about their programs to help even more women. Check out the video below for our big announcement from our appearance on Lowcountry Live:
