A shoot just isn ’ t going to work without some amazing artists to help – we had a team of hair stylists and makeup artists on set to glamour up the girls however they wanted . Jenn Hovinga of Dystynct Jewelry graciously dolled up the ladies with her unique and one-of-a-kind vintage inspired pieces . The whole team was brilliant , and we ’ re so thankful that so many ladies came out to support this event .
Raquel has been modeling since the early 2000 ’ s and her career spanned from the days of Myspace fame and catalogue modeling to several years of burlesque and now to the introduction of her very own lash line , Wink My Way . She ’ s not just a smoking hot model and talented burlesque performer , but an intelligent and hardworking business woman . She ’ s made strides with her career , moving towards being a wellrounded brand , and Jill-of-all-trades .
Her natural talent for modeling transitioned beautifully into burlesque – her natural sense of her body and movements translates to beautiful acts that are mesmerizing to watch . The women who attended the Girls Night could not have asked for a better coach ! We all watched on as Raquel got hands on with the ladies , not just giving basic tips and tricks but really relating on them on a personal level . There is something so inspiring in seeing women supporting and complimenting one another in a safe and positive space . Its clear Raquel isn ’ t just a bare-minimum kind of person – and her dedication and excitement in helping these women was really what it ’ s all about .
