Sabrina Jones Designs presents SOIR’EE de la MODE
Bridal and Evening wear fashion show
Joslyn Castle 3902 Davenport
Featuring local Fashion Designers:
Soir’ee de la Mode is a bridal and evening wear fashion show event and fundraiser for Joslyn Casle Trust. Hosted by Sabrina Jones Designs and featuring all local talent and businesses.
The Joslyn Castle trust is a non-profit organization established to ensure the preservation and restoration of the buildings and grounds of Joslyn Castle.
October 17th, 2010 Soire’ee de la Mode was a success. It was my first time being thoroughly involved with a fashion show. Thanks Sabrina for including me in this. I also want to thank Carter and Vernie Jones for all they did. Seven Salon did a wonderful job as stylists. I was told too that additional styling help came from Zenon, so thanks to you as well.
It was a blast working with models I haven’t had the chance to work with before. I realize it takes a lot of patience to model for fashion shows. There is a lot of “hurry up and wait” for the models and the great attitude of the models were appreciated. There were too many for me to name now, but know your efforts are appreciated.
Also it was a pleasure working with Scott Formann and Marlon Wright, photographing the models at the Castle. There was a great spirit of collaboration and mutual respect for each others work.
I am totally mentally and photographically exhausted. Thanks also to my wife, Karen for putting up with all my stupid stories, (I guess I could have been saying that for the last 21 years). John Stapp and Verrelle Gordon for escorting models up and down the stairs.
Here a few raw images, their will be more to come of course.
