Introducing Dorothy Dandridge

In the first of the Classic Image.ry Series, model Sabrina T. researched the actress Dorothy Dandridge. After weeks of studying her style and fashion, Sabrina visited the Studio46 for her Classic Image.ry session.


Again, the SuperTeam of Lester Bailey, Thaiese Flournoy and Alaja Greene did their magic in transforming a young lady who had up to this day had only done one type of photography into a old school diva. I only wish I had taken a "before" shot of Sabrina because the "after" the SuperTeam shots were gorgeous! Sabrina will be back again soon.

My favorite of the whole session is the shot above. This took her a minute to get this pose right, but once she did, she nailed it.

Nearing the end of the shoot, Sabrina's sleepy look made the shot to the left a classic.
The shot to the right was created by my hair stylist, Alaja Greene. Don't ask me how she came up with how to this on a wingback chair, but she did! And as for the look below, Sabrina did her research and actually found this picture of Dorothy Dandridge in an old magazine, got the same clothes and shoes, brought the picture to the studio, and we re-shot it!!
