This shoot was done over the summer but because of my tight schedule I'm just now posting them to the blog.  This was a fun and awesome collabo with the very talented Dj Radio Raheem the creator behind the Hipster Kidz.

I had an awesome time working with these talented individuals!  This was my first time working with both Comedian Herman Hurston and Celebrity Photographer Keith Cephus.  Creatively we hit it on the head and came up with some dope captures!

My styling notes for this particular shoot was to keep it clean, sophisticated but fun.  Herman has a laid back sense of style so I didn't want to gravitate to far away from who he is...

...But I did want to speak to his target demographic while still managing to turn up his swag a couple of notches...

...As a wardrobe stylist with a fashion marketing background I always want to make sure that I maintain and represent the true identity of my client while still being able to deliver a stylish representation of who they desire to be while not alienating their current fan base...

...A lot of people think that wardrobe styling is just picking out some dope clothes and throwing them on your client! But that is so not the case! A good wardrobe stylist will take in consideration the full scope of the project and produce a product that appeals on all levels.  After all this business is no different then any other business because at the end of the day you have to be able to market a quality product!

Darryl Dwayne Choreographing For Dreamgirls Production

Ok Fam so I've been away for a min and normally when I'm away for an extended amount of time I'm hard at work juggling projects.  One of the projects that I had been contracted out to work was for this production of Dreamgirls which was dope! I had an awesome time working with the cast and crew.  Everyone was beyond talented.

Choreographing for this production was truly an honor, especially since it had already been done by some of the most talented choreographers in the world of dance. I wanted to keep the original integrity of the original production which was choreographed by the great late Michael Bennet; while still adding my own creative spin to the production. I believe that I accomplished my goal and that me and the entire creative team did an awesome job in the re-adaptation of this broadway classic "Dreamgirls." Now that the show is no longer running I'm sharing with you just a taste of some of what I did for the production and behind the scenes pics from the show.  

A few members of the creative team that made it all possible.
