๐Ÿ”ฅ Fashion in the Forest: Ayisha’s Bold Photo Shoot at Fairland Park






















On a crisp Friday afternoon in Laurel, Maryland, the woods of Fairland Park transformed into a runway of reinvention and style. Photographer Calvin Childs teamed up with model Ayisha for a striking two-hour photo shoot that blended elegance, edge, and environmental consciousness.

๐Ÿ‘  Three Dresses, One Bold Statement

Aisha stunned in three distinct looks:

• Black Dress + Spiked Heels: The shoot opened with a fierce black ensemble, paired with heels that featured dramatic spikes—an unapologetic nod to punk couture and fearless femininity.
• Pink Pencil Dress: Sleek and structured, the second look brought a pop of color and sophistication, hugging every curve with confidence.
• Knee-Length Elegance: The final outfit offered a softer silhouette, perfect for the natural backdrop of Fairland Park’s wooded trails.


Each look was curated by Runway Recycle 501(c)(3) Inc., a nonprofit committed to sustainable fashion and community empowerment. Their wardrobe contributions elevated the shoot with purpose and style.

๐ŸŽฌ Behind the Scenes: Collaboration & Impact

Assisting on set was Dr. Bonita Best, founder of Runway Recycle and a longtime advocate for fashion with a mission. Her presence brought depth and direction to the shoot, reinforcing the message that style can be both beautiful and socially conscious.

After the shoot, Calvin sat down with Ayisha for an exclusive interview—diving into her inspirations, the meaning behind each look, and her thoughts on fashion as a form of storytelling. That interview is now live on Calvin’s YouTube channel, offering viewers a deeper look into the creative process.

๐ŸŒ Why This Shoot Matters

This wasn’t just about fashion—it was about reclaiming space, celebrating individuality, and showcasing how recycled fashion can shine in any setting. From the spiked heels to the forest floor, every frame captured a moment of transformation.

Whether you’re a fashion lover, a sustainability advocate, or just someone who appreciates bold visuals, this shoot is worth your scroll.
