What IS “Johnny Girl” you ask? Visit our website HERE to learn more!
We have known Chris for a long time. Working back at the Ogden, we saw him regularly as he would frequent for shows and to play his own – he was the front man for Blister 66, and was always quite festive. He met Jen a handful of years back and they got married on Valentine’s Day. The following summer, they had a big ceremony and reception, held at the Botanic Gardens. Of course, they asked us to photograph it, and imagine how heavy our hearts were to tell them we were already booked.
Fast-forward to this past January. We photographed Jen (aka Lola Black) at the Johnny Girl shoot at the Hotel Monaco. Chris tagged along and we got to talking about their wedding, and kids – you know, just general catching up. I about fell over when they told me (Jewels) that they ended up with NO wedding photos!! I was devastated for them! Even bad photos of your wedding day are better than none at all! I insisted that they let us do a Bridal Portrait session of them, in their style, with our style. It was a no-brainer as far as I was concerned. They of course said yes, and we planned it for summertime.
We were able to make the shoot happen a couple of weeks ago. These two are Rock-n-Roll all the way, and these photos show it!

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.

Every April, thousands of hot rods and customs flood the streets of Redding, California for the annual Kool April Nites car show and cruise (Jewels’ home town). This year was no different and we got a chance to go. It was the perfect weekend, ending it with this awesome little photo shoot! Our friend Nathanial wanted his ’51 Ford photographed with his daughter – and of course, our very own Angela Dixon of Indie Six. “Have pin-up girl, will travel!”
