Today I’m excited to introduce a new collaboration happening inside Photography by Cristal. I’ve connected with an incredible woman who leads a thriving community called Modern Marketing, and when she reached out to me, I didn’t hesitate for a second. I recognize talent, dedication, and heart when I see it — and she brings all three. This partnership is about more than just working together. It’s about sharing knowledge, supporting growth, and creating opportunities that elevate everyone in our communities. Inside Photography by Cristal, I believe in surrounding myself with people who are builders, leaders, and visionaries. This collaboration is another step forward in that direction — and I truly believe the best is yet to come. Welcome to the next level. We’re building something special together. 🚀

Tonight at 6 p.m. in Los Angeles, I connected with Scottie Souter (S-O-U-T-E-R) all the way in Queensland, Australia, where it was early morning on his side of the world. That’s the beauty of remote photography — distance disappears, and the story still gets told. Scottie is a dedicated deep-sea fisherman and diver who has spent years exploring the ocean and recovering remarkable artifacts from beneath the surface. From my home studio in LA, I was able to guide him step by step — lighting, posing, and expression — proving once again that professional headshots can happen anywhere in the world. Scottie is also the author of the inspiring book The Boy on the Log, a story of resilience, adventure, and life shaped by the sea. You can preview his book in the Skool Bookshop, where his journey continues to reach readers everywhere. I’ll share the link so you can explore it yourself. Photography by Cristal Hollywood headshots anywhere — no matter where you are in the world. Meet Scott 📖 The Skool Bookshop
