Last week my friend Candice asked me to help out with a shoot. She’s a hair stylist/makeup artist/photographer, and had a girl by the name of Danielle Todd down in KW for some photos.

Every month I sell about 1000 stock photos around the internet, and every now and then I get an email from a designer saying that they used one of my photos.
