Well HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014 Internet!

I’m so very excited to share this complete photo session! If you’ve been following our Instagram Feed you’ve seen a blitz of photos from this shoot!

This has been an amazing year for us and I’m blessed to say that we have had an equally amazing group of senior spokesmodels here at Teri Fode Seniors! About 3 weeks ago, in the middle of a very busy holiday season, I was browsing pinterest for some holiday decor ideas and I came across some amazing new years posts for holiday party decorating. I was immediately inspired to create some of the decorations and this led to an even bigger idea that inspired a stylized photo shoot event based around the New Year party theme!

After talking the idea over with Don (who loved it), I contacted our amazing makeup artist Sara Williams and started the collaboration to create a very fun, sparkly and glitzy photo shoot! I decided to put out a model call to our 25 spokesmodels and ask them to submit their sparkly and glittery dresses and outfits! We had over 50 outfits to choose from and it was so very hard because they were all so amazingly gorgeous! We selected 3 glitzy outfits and our party-themed photo shoot was well on it’s way to becoming a reality just 10 short days later!

We truly wanted the studio to feel like a New Year’s party for the 3 senior girls that were selected for this themed shoot. We hand-crafted lots of glitzy-glam decorations with gold spray-paint, gold and silver glitter, sparkly confetti and tons of curly ribbon. We ordered several sparkly curtain backdrops and created 2 other glitzy-themed shooting areas that would create the feel and look we were going for.

We ordered sparkly cupcakes and crafted glittery cupcake wrappers. We included popcorn in black and white striped party containers and had lots of fun snacks including Martinelli’s (non-alcoholic) bubbly! Candles were lit, music was loud and glitter and confetti was sprinkled everywhere!

We told the girls to come prepared to be pampered with makeup (crazy-fun makeup, I might add). We decided to do an over-the-top glitter-glam look and the girls loved it!
