Denver Portrait Photography – Birdee at Wax Trax
I love working with models who have all different levels of experience. Younger models are so eager and willing to take instruction—they are ready to learn! But models with a few years under their belt already know their best angles, where the light is, and how to pose. Environmental photos are a great way to show off their skills.
And Birdee Bow is exactly that! She knows her stuff! Birdee is a singer and model who splits her time between LA, New York, Vegas, and Denver. With all those location options, I was truly honored that she asked me to help her add to her modeling portfolio.
She’s not just the talent in front of the camera though. She put so much thought into the whole shoot. She styled each outfit, did her own hair and makeup, posed herself beautifully, and had so many perfect suggestions for backdrops. It was she who had the idea to shoot at Wax Trax, a local record and CD store here in Denver.
The space was ideal for what Birdee was going for. She had vibrant colors, funky clothes, and super cool accessories that popped amidst the stacks of CDs.
For the last outfit or two, we ventured out into the street. I didn’t think we could get better than the record store, but she killed it. I loved her white dress set against the grungy alleyways.
