Welcome Window Photo Shoot

Yesterday was a magical day at GiGi’s Playhouse Sacramento, thanks to these three beautiful individuals. Renowned photographer Keith Bryce (center) and his crew consisting of HairMother Marie Fuentes and Adam Klinefelter, spent all day taking photos of the Believe in our Build participants who will be featured on the windows at our soon-to-be-open location.  

The fact that Keith and his crew’s resumes are impressive beyond belief wasn’t what made this shoot so magical. It was the energy that they brought. They were both excited to be there, but also calm. In turn, they were calming for the models (and their parents!). As one of the moms commented to me after the shoot, they totally “got” it. There was no pressure to be “perfect” or for the kids to do certain things or act a certain way. Keith wanted to see their amazing personalities shine through! From the images that I saw on the monitor as the day unfolded, he knew exactly what he was doing. 

The day was exhausting (and if it was for me, I can only imagine how Keith and crew felt!), but SO incredibly fulfilling. I loved seeing so many sweet faces in one day. After being quarantined for so long and only seeing them in pictures, it reminded me once again why I’ve poured my heart and soul into opening GiGi’s Playhouse Sacramento. Not that I’ve forgotten, but sometimes the bucket needs refilling, and these amazing kiddos know just how to do that!
