You might recognize Hope. She’s been in my portfolio before. Some say there’s a family resemblance, but I just don’t see it. My niece is GORGEOUS! I love her new brunette look.

When Hope and her friend, Christa, came to New York, we did a little photo shoot so Hope could have new pictures for her portfolio. I used Christa’s new CD for the slide show music.

It’s fantastic! You’ve GOT to see this one!

Christa and Hope have been best friends since kindergarten. They’re BOTH gorgeous.

I think Hope has a great future in modeling. But she’s also a great makeup artist and hair stylist.

And she’s a natural at posing too.

My Metuchen readers will recognize Tommy from Variety Village. He was kind enough to let us photograph him for our music video. Thanks, Tommy! You look great!

Remember the name CHRISTA JOY because with a voice like that, she’ll be fighting off the real paparazzi in no time!
Congratulations, Christa!

Ya’ll leave a comment for Hope and Christa. It’s a great song. Be sure to turn up the sound!

    Jules,
    Hope is incredibly beautiful and photogenic. These two remind me of us way back when…friends since kindergarten! (but we weren’t THAT cute, were we?) Man, they’re both beautiful and extremely talented. Hope truly reminds me of you, whether you believe it or not!
    Great pictures, Mamarazzi! :o )

    Hope needs to dust off that portfolio and hightail it back to the city NOW; Christa needs a recording contract PRONTO.

    These are really great images.

    Oh, and a belated Happy Birthday from the Franco clan. See you next week!!

    Julie,

    Your niece and her friend are gorgeous! I can DEFINITELY see a resemblance — a lot of the shots she really does look like you! Tommy was beaming — looked like he was in heaven! ha ha

    I meant to comment earlier but life sneaked in and grabbed me away. I love the “eyes” picture. Maybe because in others she’s looking down or her eyes are closed.

  14. Bill Cawley says:

    Wow!! Great work Julie! And the models are great… and the song is awesome… good job all of you. :)

  15. K.C. says:

    Wow, so many great ones to choose from, I don’t think I could narrow it down. Excellent work Julie and to Hope and Christa, beautiful photos.
