Photographer's Log; February 4th, 2017. Portrait of an Artist @tiffanybchanel ______________________________________________________ The creator has given you all you need to experience love. Some choose to create it, some to give it, and some to receive it. I believe that one can experience true happiness when a balance is found among the three. Embrace what you love, do what makes you happy, and laugh a lot 🤣😂 until your belly hurts. . . . #tiffanybchanel #artist #dope #womenofcolor #paint #create #creative #peace #inthezone #naturallyshesdope #art #popart #leader #blackisbeautiful #artsy #peoplescreative #style #shawnarlingtonphotography (at Somewhere In Brooklyn)

Photographer's Log; June 26th, 2016. SMILE, it's contagious. Good feelings and thoughts attract like energies and outcomes. "The best things in life are on the other side of your maximum fear." - Will Smith. Don't be afraid to smile at the unknown. ______________________________________________________ #smile #motivationmonday #loveyourself #inspire #portrait #portraitphotography #photography #shawnarlingtonphotography #photogenic #photoart #photographer #purplelip #yellow #sundress #brimhat #sunnies #sunglasses (at Nethermead, Prospect Park)

Photographer's Log; February 19th, 2017. @skibo1011 ________________________________________________________ A few years back I saw this #beautiful #bald headed Empress standing out in a crowd of many people that surrounded her at the #bam #african #festival. I positioned my camera, and began snapping away while maneuvering through the crowd to get that "perfect" shot. Well...a few years later, and we're still friends, she's still an #Empress, still #beautiful, still #stands #out amongst the crowd, and is still #smiling. The only thing changed is that she's grown some hair on that head, and wore a #hat because her hair ain't did 😁, but still a fly girl nonetheless. . . . #flygirl #model #businesswoman #naturallyshesdope #naturalhair #peoplescreative #leshrug #leader #stylin #fur #shawnarlingtonphotography (at Kottu House)
