Before & After with Miss N

You 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 for blog

She’s My Hero Project Announcement Video

It’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:
