Plus Size Model Portfolio: Lexa Joy

January 21, 2018 in MODEL PORTFOLIO, PHOTOSHOOT RECAP, CURVES

I had a blast developing Lexa Joy's plus size model portfolio for her agency Natural Model Management. We shot at Muse Studio City in LA and had Aaron Paul with his assistant Leslie on hair and makeup!  Lexa recently signed to Natural Models and I'm excited to see where things will take this blonde beauty. Lexa just graduated from art school and also works in LA in production. Here's what we got during Lexa's shoot!

Finishing out #wcw with this beauty, @theericalauren ❤️ this shoot was soooo good and it came about really last minute! I loved capturing Erica Lauren’s natural beauty - someone please put her in a beauty ad!!! Makeup and hair by @nataliabbeauty
Today’s Self Affirmation Mantra: “My body can do amazing things. My body is a vessel for my magical being!” Featuring #wcw @theericalauren @dorothycombsmodels 💞 beauty by @nataliabbeauty
This may be my favorite shot from my shoot with @theericalauren 💎 actually, we got a ton of fire shots together so it’s really hard to pick a favorite! This is the first time I used this backdrop color, but I’m really happy with how it shoots and am trying to get everyone to try it now. In my best “dad joke” way, I told Erica she is a trend setter for shooting on this first. Makeup and hair by @nataliabbeauty
Happy Monday! I used to hate Monday’s but now I look forward to them... they’re always a great way to start fresh! Photo of @halledeneen from our shoot last year. Halle always inspires me with her work ethic, positive attitude and incredible confidence. What is something you want to accomplish today?
“I AM POWERFUL AS I AM. I AM WORTHY AS I AM. I AM LOVED AS I AM. I EMBRACE ME.” - repeating this mantra to myself today, thought I would share it with you all. What mantras or self affirmations do you use? Love you @naturallykiara @fatchuckbass @lunamodela thank you for being so badass in this shoot!
💎 MAGIC 💡In my last post I touched on giving up. I went through a tough time last winter and I was faced with a choice to pack it in and give up or push through. I chose to push through even when I felt like giving up and had no idea what the hell I was doing in life. I knew I wanted to create, so I did. I spent much of last winter saying “fuck it, let’s do it my way!” and threw myself into creating a ton of personal work. Those shoots allowed me to learn, grow and meet amazing new people. I put my depressed, anxious energy and focused it into something beautiful which was my work. Little by little I saw little signs from the universe that things were in fact working out for me. Those contrasty, dark times are times when we can find our superpowers. Here’s to leveling UP and finding your magic! Model is @__laurenash__ makeup @andrewsotomayor hair @rebeccastyleshair
This goes against my IG flow but it makes me feel good to know that I’m here this year. I love this selfie of me!! This time last year I was in a super shitty place personally, honesty didn’t think I would be here today. I feel really good about 2019 and me, I needed 2018 to teach me to show up for myself!! Thank you to all of the friends that helped me through it, my therapist and my family for allowing me to unlock my magic!!! You mean the world to me, you know who you are. Don’t give up on your magic. We all have it!! Seriously!! ❤️🔥💞
Happy Valentine’s Day! Decided to do a V-day themed self portrait shoot. Everyone is putting heart stickers on model’s faces these days so I thought I’d join in on the fun for a self portrait. What do you think?
❤️Focus on LOVE today - whether it’s self love or love to others! You can show love in other ways besides flowers and candies. Reach out to an old friend, call a family member, volunteer your time, donate what you would spend on roses to a charity, call your senators and demand them to clean up Flint’s drinking water, hug a little longer. ❤️
