André Richard Salon hosts World Diversity Day Event

Old City’s André Richard Salon, in conjunction with Sea Me Events, hosted an event in honor of World Diversity Day, where attendees had the chance to experience a fabulous day of glam. I had the opportunity to photograph the event, and meet the lovely stylists of the salon, the beautiful models, and Sea Me Events founders. A few years ago, I had the coolest hair treatment done at André Richard Salon (read about the experience here), and it was a pleasure to be back and to shoot this event.

A portion of all proceeds from this will benefit LUCY Outreach, which serves low-income youth in Camden.
