It is good to know you have friends looking out for you in life. My case in point is the time Young Corey put me up on a model by the name of Nikki Howard. We had reached out via text to each other after getting linked up by Corey, and both agreed it would be awesome to shoot together. Unfortunately, like most things in my life, scheduling put it off for a bit. I was fortunate enough to reconnect with the brunette beauty and we finally set up a day for a Test Shoot. Since I have a new studio, I thought it would be great to have her come by and see what we could produce. Now if you are already a fan of her work, then you probably might guess we got some pretty good stuff. But aside from her stunning looks, she is actually a really cool and down-to-earth person. With an outgoing sense of humor that could hang with the guys, it made the shoot that much more fun. So scroll below for some of our shots as well as a interview to find out more about her.
