Happy New Year!!

Posted on by

This year has been one of the best in a very long time.  A lot of positive changes have occurred in my life and I am truly at my happiest. It’s so weird…in the beginning of 2008, I had no idea that there would be so many monumental changes in my life. 

This February I will be a college graduate!!!!!!!!! How awesome is that???  Putting myself through 6 1/2 years of school has paid off. I am proud to say that I will be the first college graduate in my extended family. 

In the upcoming weeks I am expecting to receive some new photos from my last three photoshoots.  So, be on the look out for additions to my expanded portfolio!!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday!  The Valentino’s had a great Christmas, and I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday as well!

Today nancyvalentino.com reached the 100 visitor milestone!  Thanks to everyone for checking out my site, and I hope you check back often!

I have combined the photo shoot galleries into one expanded portfolio which compliments my Model Mayhem portfolio.  There is also a private portfolio with some samples of my artistic nude work, which is password protected.  There are instructions on the “Expanded Portfolio” page for how to obtain the password.  I am waiting for photos from some of my more recent shoots, and once I get them, they will be added to the portfolio.

Hello World!

I had another photoshoot today and it went great.  I crossed paths with yet another awesome photogapher that I hope to work with again! I can’t wait to post some shots.

After the shoot, Mr. Valentino, my mom, the youngest Valentino and myself went out for a late lunch. We had a fabulous time at a fabulous place.

The holidays are just about here!! I’m looking forward to an exciting week.

New Ink & Teagan <33

Posted on by

So I bought Penthouse Magazine and got to see the pictorial on Teagan Presley!! I loved it but I really wish they would have left her tattoos. She’s a pornstar, she’s supposed to be “edgy”, right??  I think her new boobs look amazing…100 times better!!!!

I got some new ink this evening!! It is on the inside of my left wrist.  I have always strived to be glam, and I am so proud of how much I have acheived due to hard work.  I had to celebrate in my own way, and this was just perfect.  I’m so glad I found a tattoo shop that’s pretty close to where I live. The place I used to go is super far now. Tattoos are so addicting…I swear, I’m running of out concealable places to get them…lol!!  Check out a pic of it below!

I have a photoshoot on Monday & I’m very excited…it should be awesome.

Just had the chance to review the pics from my shoot with Timothy P. Hines this past Sunday. He was just awesome to work with….the photos were KILLER.

Damn it!! I totally forgot to pick up that Penthouse with Teagan Presley!! That will  be one of the first things I do tomorrow when I run errands. I was busy this evening picking out lingerie for my next few shoots. I have 3 shoots booked for the next month with the possiblity of a few more :)  holla!!

Ahhh….today we got a good amount of snow :D Wouldn’t it be nice to have a white christmas?

Beauty Products

Posted on by

I love trying all sorts of different cosmetics. For my latest shoots I used the Tarte smoky eye palette to achieve that sultry sexy look. What I love about this palette is that it comes with the primer, as well as three eye shadows, a lining brush, shadow brush & liner for only $40!! The liner is amazing and doesn’t smudge as much as I’m used to with the drugstore liners. The pigments in these shadows are intense and a little went a long way. No creases whatsoever after wearing it all day long.  What I liked about this was that it’s so easy to use and the appropriate brushes make it very hard to foul up the smoky eye. What I didn’t like was the primer was a little drier then I’m used to.  So, I just used my awesome Urban Decay Shadow Primer. 

Another product I used was the Stila’s Holiday 2007 warm eye trio (thanks eBay). These colors are gorgeous; this is a product I plan to wear all year round.  This shadow stayed on ALL DAY LONG. Stila pretty much rocks…again, no creases. There isn’t really anything bad I can say about this one….it’s amazing!

As far as lips go…I just used a clear gloss that I got from Bath & Body Works ages ago.

Also, I know this isn’t really a “beauty product” but I’m pretty much addicted to Britney Spears’ Midnight Fantasy…perfect for day or night!! :D

I’m looking forward to adding today’s pictures to the gallery, so BE ON THE LOOK OUT over the next week or so!!! I hope to work with Russ again in the near future!!

Finally someone who shares my passion of VINTAGE!! :p

Anxiously Awaiting…

So, thankfully I’m feeling so much better. I’m really looking forward to the 2 shoots I have coming up this weekend. I have some new make up products that I will be testing out for these shoots. I will definitely do a little review on these new products—for me personally reviews really weigh on my decision to buy a product.

So, I’m not one of those girls that is into Penthouse or anything but I’m going to be picking up the January 2009 issue soon. Teagan Presley is the Pet of Month. I LOVE her. She kind of resembles Britney Spears…maybe that’s why I love her??! :p

I absolutely HATE crowds -especially in the mall but I’m going to go out this evening anyway. After all, Christmas is only about 2 weeks away!!
