We're Going to New York Fashion Week!
Cocoa Rae David and I are going to New York Fashion Week to shoot with Runway 7 Fashion September 10-14 and we need your help getting there!
You've heard the saying! If you can make it there (NYC, of course!), then you can make it anywhere! Well, that's where we want to build connections and relationships with folks in the fashion industry - fashion designers, models, showrunners, media/press, and other fashion professionals - in hopes to pursue projects working with bigger names in the business.
We need to raise $1500 to secure lodging, transportation, and equipment rentals! ​​You can donate monetarily by tapping the button below, donate in-kind, or sponsor both of us for exclusive coverage of New York Fashion Week! Donate below!

HOW MUCH ARE YOU RAISING?

WHAT IF I CAN'T GIVE MONETARILY? ARE THERE OTHER WAYS TO SUPPORT?
Absolutely! You can follow us on Instagram and Facebook to share our posts. We are also accepting in-kind donations so if have equipment we can borrow or have access to space in NYC to stay, please let us know!
WHEN IS YOUR TRIP?
September 7 - 15! We'll be covering Model Casting Call on Monday, September 8 and individual shows on September 10 - 14 at Sony Hall.
WHY NEW YORK FASHION WEEK?
We want to network with media and fashion professionals and other photographers on a much larger scale than we have here in Rochester supporting our career goals in being hired to photograph work featured in magazines and other publications. Our long-term goal is to build connections and work that not only support a sustainable, thriving lifestyle, but also one in which we can make a bigger difference in our community here in Rochester.
WILL YOU BE SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE IN NYC?
Yes! We'll be sharing our entire experience on social media and in my email newsletter.
