First Fashion Photo Shoot a Success

The first fashion photo shoot took place at Price Portraits in Charleston for WV LIVING and the end result was unbelievable! Model and former Miss WV USA Jessica Wedge sported 6 different looks in front of the camera and stylist Jane Engelke made sure the hair and makeup complimented each outfit!

I had a blast pulling clothing from various stores around West Virginia and Jane put the finishing touches on each outfit by adding the appropriate accessories. She's got a gift for fashion!

Rounding out the TEAM DIVA was Jessica Schueler, former Miss WV's Outstanding Teen and future fashion magazine editor. Our fearless leader, Nikki Bowman the creator and publisher of WV LIVING, also served as photographer.

What will you find in the spring issue? Items from Horner and Harrison, Geraniums, Eggplant, Elizabeth Michaels, Target, Vance's Blues, Payless and many more great stores from across the mountain state.

When does the magazine come out? March! But don't miss it- go to http://www.wvlivingmagazine.conm/ to subscribe today.
