Here are some of my favorite images from the Frill Prom Preview 2012.  Now all of you can relive this amazing evening.  The girls were so beautiful and full of energy!  What a wonderful show!

Thanks to Jan Moore for a wonderful story in today’s Statesboro Herald.  The event was again, a huge success.  2012 is going to be one of the best prom seasons ever!

Tickets are $5.00 and are selling FAST.  Get  yours from one of the 2012 Frills Girls or at Frills and Fancies in Statesboro.

25 beautiful princesses have been selected by Scott Marchbanks to represent 16 schools in the region at the Frills by Scott Prom Preview Event.  Scott has put together the “dream team of prom” to pull off this amazing event.  The dream team includes Frills, myself and Serenity Day Spa.

I have had a blast working with all these beautiful girls and can not wait for tomorrow night.  Doors open at 6:45 – be there early to get a seat.  This event is one that fills fast!

This year’s theme is “Prom Princess”.  During the sessions, I worked to create a different concept for each girl.  Every girl,  all 25, was photographed on a different background.

Over and over again – the girls have told me how bored they are with the school photographers and how they can not understand why every background is the same.  This gave me an opportunity prove “the Lori Grice Difference!”

Hope to see all of you at the show!

p.s.  A special Thanks goes to Scoops {Icecream}, Daylight Donuts and The Clubhouse for providing some of our “on location” venues.

If you have been in our studio – you have seen a picture or two of Keith Johnson.  Keith is in Nashville pursuing his dream of acting and singing professionally.  He was recently featured in Luke Bryan’s “Do I” video and Danielle Peck was featured with him in his video below from his song “Can’t Get Enough.”  Many of you saw him last week on America’s Got Talent.  He was selected to move on to the next round this week in Las Vegas.

We wish Keith the best of luck.  I also want to thank him for naming me as one of the special supporters of him through the years.  Every time I have the opportunity to photograph him – I am amazed at how much he has grown – musically and from a modeling perspective.  We encourage you to tune in and give our “hometown”  boy your support.  Click here to learn more about Keith and see my photographs of him through the last few years.  Check out Keith’s MySpace page here and listen to and download more of his music.

Congratulations to Katy Burrell who was selected as Most (MISS) Photogenic at the Southeast Bulloch Middle School (SEBMS) pageant this past weekend.  I have lost count how many of my clients have won photogenic awards – but each one is very refreshing.

Katy is no different.  She is a wonderfully beautiful girl.  I am so proud of her and all the pageant winners.

  We had so much fun creating this modeling portfolio.  She was so INTO it as you can tell from these images.  Can you believe that she has NEVER modeled before?  She is a natural and I am sure she will be a cover girl soon! Beautiful!!!

  Jan is a great friend, client and a terrific County Commissioner in Bulloch County.  DeWayne, Edie Grace and I have been long time supporters of Jan.  We have hosted events for her and been great cheer leaders for her throughout her tenure.  Of course, you know I am all about "girl power" so I always enjoy supporting and encouraging capable women in positions of leadership.  From her first election, Jan has exceeded our expectations.  She quickly became a much needed moderate voice on our commission.  She is known for studying the issues and LISTENING to both sides before making her decision.

If you do not know Jan, she is certainly someone you need to get to know. 

As an elected county Commissioner, Jan is a member of an organization comprised of commissioners throughout Georgia.  It is the Association of County Commissioners (ACCG)  It is an important and powerful group of elected officials who unite in one voice on issues of importance to all of our counties in Georgia.

Several years ago Jan was elected to the ACCG board of directors.  In January, she will become President of this impressive organization.  As part of this distinct honor, she will be featured in their monthly magazine in January.  In addition to featuring Jan, they will also feature our community and region that Jan is such an integral part of.

Even though my week has been tremendously hectic just returning from being out of the country for nine days – I made room for Jan to update her head shots for the publication.

Nothing thrills me more than to see friends and clients continue to give of their time and abilities to lead our communities.  Jan is certainly a great example of this. 

I also predict that this is just another step along a very bright path for Jan.  We anxiously await the next step of her journey.

  How was I to know that the model I was shooting on the beach was going to only wear a very small bathing suit.  I know what your thinking – most of the people on Tybee should wear more not less – me included!  Obviously this day and this model was an exception.  I have NEVER seen so many camera phones pop out to photograph anything before as we did during this session.  Fortunately, we were traveling with security that day – as I often do on public shoots like this.  He along with the life guards did a great job with crowd control.  I do apologize for all of you that may have been "dusted" or should I say "sanded" by the hovering coast guard helicopter – but I think when you got home and showed off the pictures in your camera phone – it was worthwhile. 

This was yet another great session with another HOT Guy for my "special" project all of you are going to love.  Can you say 4% body fat?  Well if you can imagine that – then you will understand the secret to looking like this.  We had a BLAST!

Krisha and Christine – hope you didn’t mind me passing out your cards to all the folks that were pelted with sand – when they wanted to know who the photographer was?  Since you are two of my best blog readers – I knew you would know the real story after reading this and would be happy to help me explain.

  Some sessions are much more difficult than others.  For the next few weeks I am working on  a project that requires – no, demands -  that I photograph VERY good looking young men.  I have been shooting a good bit at Tybee and downtown Savannah the last couple of weeks.  My last model for this project was C BUZZ.  I am not sure what that means – hopefully it is not too risque.  He was a lot of fun and, believe it or not, surprisingly shy.   He certainly attracts attention -  especially shirtless – even on the beach.  But I will let you judge for yourself.  I have hand picked an interesting group of guys for this project.  Just think Christmas Present for you and every lady on your Christmas list.  I predict even your great grandmother will enjoy this gift! 

I know it is a very difficult job – but someone must do it – right?
