The Indie Six Calendar

The annual Indie Six Calendar is bigger and better than ever! We spent all of 2010 working on it with the girls of Indie Six Salon, from concept, to each shoot, to the final product and presentation at the Calendar Release Party on December 3rd.  All photography is done by Jeff & Jewels and the hair, makeup, body painting, costuming, and models are by the ladies of Indie Six.

We were so excited to be asked to do this project as it let us get back to the fashion industry where Jeff started his photography career, and the avant garde style that Jewels loves.  We were able to try some different things and appreciate the opportunity to work with such a fun group of ladies.  We are so proud to show it off and hope you love it as much as we do!

The INDIE SIX Salon 2011 Calendar Release Party!

Indie Six Salon to Unveil 4th Annual Calendar on December 3rd, 2010

2011 Calendar to Feature Stylist’s One-of-a-Kind Talent and Artistry in Hair, Makeup and Body Painting

DENVER, Oct. 1, 2010 — Indie Six Salon (http://www.indiesix.com) announces the release of their 4th annual calendar that highlights a mix of style, fashion, and cutting edge artistry that the stylists have become known for in the industry. The 2011 calendar will be showcased at a release party on Friday, December 3rd where each of the photos will be finally unveiled to the public.

Indie Six’s trademark style has set the bar for beauty and fashion in Denver since they opened their doors in 2005. Each year the stylists capture the fun, the eclectic, and the down right fashion forward in a collection of photos displaying their rare talents in a calendar format.

The 2011 Calendar is a collaboration of each stylist’s vision. This year’s calendar includes on location shoots all around Denver. They have included iconic Denver locations such as Bandimere Speedway, Grant-Humphrey’s Mansion, and of course Red Rocks.

The Indie Six calendar in 2009 was noticed by Denver Post reporter Elizabeth Aguilera for not only the stunning photos, but also for their ingenuity in staying above other salons in a tough economy (http://www.denverpost.com/business/ci_11389609). In addition to 12 months of photos, the calendar also includes a VIP card, which keeps their cult client following continually coming back throughout the year.

For this year’s calendar shoots, Indie Six turned to the creative photography of Gray Photography (http://www.jeffgrayart.com). Gray Photography specializes in wedding and pin-up photography, but has also contributed notable work in classic car magazines.

The location and co-promoter of the Calendar Release Party will be at Casselman’s Bar & Venue in downtown Denver. The new photos will be on display, as well as some of the costuming, props, and creative pieces behind the shoots. Indie Six will be hosting live entertainment and guests will also have the opportunity to enter a raffle to win valuable prizes from additional sponsors. This is a 21+ event.

Indie Six 2011 Calendar – $30 (immediate pre-order available through the salon and is highly recommended since they sell-out every year.) Visit the website for updates at www.indiesix.com.

The Food Guy Tasting at Grant-Humphreys Mansion

Cindy & Tom at The Food Guy catering were kind enough to invite us to participate in their annual Bridal tasting, held at the Grant-Humphreys mansion.  I was able to photograph the event – here are some highlights, and to view the entire collection, please visit our online viewing section at http://grayphotography.photoreflect.com

The Food Guy – awesome food without the attitude!

“The Food Guy Catering offers a refreshing approach to catering in the Denver Metro Area. We work with you to identify your unique needs and discover a vision for the event. Then we develop a customized menu that caters to your tastes.

We create menus that range from exotic Mediterranean dishes or sophisticated French cuisine, to finger-lickin’ Barbeque.”

“The Grant-Humphreys Mansion is an elegant setting for your special event.
This Beaux Arts architectural showpiece was built in 1902 for the former Colorado Governor James Benton Grant.  In 1917 the home was purchased by the A. E. Humphreys family.  It is on the National Registry of Historic Places, and located in Denver’s Quality Hill Historic District, just ten minutes from downtown.”
