Northern NJ Fashion, Beauty and Black & White Photographer Mike Kortoci

This image is a favorite from my recent photo shoot with Jacqueline Laurita. Some of you may recognize her from Bravo’s Real Housewives of NJ. In fact the studio was even featured on the show during the first season, but this time the shoot was not being filmed and I was able to really concentrate on getting some spectacular images of Jacqueline.

While Jacqueline doesn’t have formal training as a model, you would have never known because she seemed so comfortable during the shoot. I’m sure it has a lot to do with being constantly followed around by cameras! Wherever her comfort in front of the camera came from it was definitely apparent, making her easy to photograph and the shoot a lot of fun. I’m happy to now know Jacqueline more personally, and she is as charming and down to earth as the first impression I had of her from this shoot.
