Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. This outreach cannot be done without you dancers, breakers, musicians, and artists in our community. Simply put, we hope here at TheBlondeRaven to inspire people across the world with our photography of fellow aspiring or professional people of the like, videography of important lessons, and messages to each and every artist that resonates and promotes growth within self. This doesn’t stop here. As a company, I am looking to working with several artists/dancers/anyone listed above to produce content for the dance and lifestyle blog, while simultaneously outreaching in our community/communities to not only aid in the beautiful transformation process when an artist realizes they can be the person in those photographs, on stage, at the dance battle, behind the scenes, and noticed for their artistry or talent. This outreach is more than personal, it’s a desire to give back to others… and I can go more into this down below. If this sounds like something you’d be interested in… please DM me on Instagram @theblonderaven.am or e-mail [email protected] CC’ing [email protected]. I will also do my part and respond back, but be sending my own introductions and greetings right as you’re reading this. This Brand is an ever-growing all inclusive style highlighting YOU as the amazing people you are. I’ve been inspired by so many people to come to this point and previous knowers of The Blonde Raven Blog, know how passionate I am when talking about this type of stuff. But. It’s necessary to take this action so take this notice as a poster flyer in your studios and by your neighborhood. I can not do this without your support, so whether that means sharing or liking on Instagram or Facebook & talking about it on Tik Tok, I’d appreciate any and every help! Your engagement means the world and simply leaving a comment on any post you find interesting (on the blog) or on any other social media platform would help with getting some traction to this goal of giving back, while also doing the important work of sharing the lives of you all in a cool way! I know sooooo many amazing individuals that I can not wait to share with the world. If you know who I highlight, you’ll probably get to know a deeper story or side to them on this blog. So prepare to be inspired, encouraged, motivated, interested, and good energy gained in your own way of growing 🌱.
That all being said, I’m looking to grow my portfolio of photographs of dancers and artists, so far what I have is below. I hope you wanna be a part of this! And like the picture says above, “Be The Star” anywhere you go. Shine Bright.

While this poster display suggests I’m looking for ONLY models, I am looking for people to represent my Brand – the all inclusive way which I previously mentioned above. People who step out of their comfort zone and come over here for some good vibes but taking a step in their artistry by trusting me to get some cool shots. Whether I hire a photographer or do the photos myself, I want to build trust with you all as a person who loves to shine other people in the spotlight (“I really do like being behind the camera more than in front” -Nina). It’s important to me also that the backbone of this Brand is helping others. Whether it be any of you being validated in yourself to doing non-profit work for schools and shops, impoverished neighborhoods, and raising funds to propel our unified message that Dancers and Artists Are Uniquely Made. This starts in childhood so I hope you understand how important it is to me to reach out to the youth. In the next section I talk about more about the prospective outreach in the community with all things working together in unison.
Community Outreach Importance
As a fellow dancer, I have been giving back to the community since my early days. I’m 26 as of May 2024. I’ve led Dance Camps for children as a part of my Dance Team. Teaching, having fun, and even modeling kid camps where their parents would drop them off and we would build relationships doing solid activities… while dancing! Raising funds for breast cancer organizations and even our own funds to compete at local and National Competitions such as at ESPN in Disney in Orlando, Florida. I know what hard work is and it’s best being a part of a team. I was actually the team keeper of our social media Instagram account and posting the dance pictures to engage with all peers, friends, and newcomers, so while my own trade is in developing stages – I’m familiar with outreaching. To take it a step further, I want to raise all types of funds for cancer, impoverished families, giving to the homeless, packaging Christmas presents for orphans and people without a home, and setting up a structure so you may help out if you please. I’ll include some pictures from my Dance Team days so you believe me. It’s really important to me and I’m sure you as well to give back to others. It’s how we grow individually and can propel to all sorts of cool, amazing projects in the near future. Lately, I’ve volunteered at a non-profit bridal shop where bridal dresses are donated so the cost of weddings is reduced and the symbolism behind marriage is kept beautiful. A Commitment To One Another. Some how I’m going to find a way to incorporate even them into our artistry business, lol. There is so much goodness to be done here in the world and please get as excited about it as I do. Your welcome to join (;. If you support what this is, I’d LOVE if you reach out and shoot me a message by DM or e-mail, anyhow you prefer so we can get started! Anyway… check out the rest of the blog if you have the chance, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
High-Kick Dance Team
If you know jump-splits, then you know we were lucky to do this on the fake grass on the field. One of my favorite dance uniforms.
Best Friends
Wanting To Do More!
Okay – the only reason I included this award is because it just symbolizes the team spirit I had on my team. So. Putting that forward I am encouraged to do this for my community. There’s only two of these awards given out each year, one is to the most technically gifted dancer and the Cavalier Award, which is to the person I guess who has the most team spirit, which was me! I still have this high spirit so hence why this blog is well and alive.
Learning About Different Styles Of Dancers And Artists
It’s my goal to also learn about as many different people as possible while funneling and being THE source of all types of crafts in the art of either dancing, singing, painting, drawing, breaking, and anything else creative set wise. I’m not trying to stretch myself out too thin, so if you have a request for me to cover a topic I’d be more than happy to have a conversation about it! This being said, I look forward to talking to all of you at some point about collaborating and working alongside together.
It’s Pretty Nice Over Here
This space is open for all people over here, so please stand or take your seat! Most all are welcome to this side of town. I say “Come As You Are” because being authentic and yourself is cool, that has most definitely never gone out of style. I’m for you as an artist and person and want to see true growth in myself and others, always. Whether your style is a solo femme fatale, sassy Queen, bad b*tch, icy fairy, smooth criminal, Mr. or Ms. Big Steppa, tricky to tough breaking ’BBoy’ please join me in highlighting all people that as well as in between are welcome to mention here. The list goes on for the types of artists that are out in the world, so please let me know who you are to mention! The limit does not exist with your artistry or style. Trying new things or trends of your favorite artists and molding it with what you think or your originality can come into action. OR – everything your inspired from comes from a different place then people, maybe watching other dancers move or singers sing. I’ll be sure to make posts dedicated to trending outfits and OOTD inspiration that encourages you to continue developing or have your own style! The photographs that are done are going to be helpful for inspiration and further enhancing the connection to others as well as art. And if you’re all set and good in this arena, then hopefully there’s other things we do here that will interest you. This is also a Lifestyle blog, please do remember. Truly want to create a community where everybody is involved and it’s a safe space at the end of the day to come and open up. Maybe you do therapy or use another creative outlet to deal with the many emotions as artists we have, but, it’s okay to come talk to me if you’re ever having difficulty with something. I will be there for you like I have countless times for other people. So no worries, here. I love you guys!
Inspiration
While we may be dreamers without a foothold on our path we still are steady moving toward making it happen for ourselves and friends we meet along the way. I hope you do care, like really care, about all this mentioned here. This blog is meant to also serve as a tool for providing resources and letting you know of local and National events you can attend as dancers and artists. Once I get the insider scoop I will be sure to post about it so you too can get involved. I hope to cover many events in the near future so even if you can’t make a couple then you can get the dealio of what happened and what it’s about.
There is still so much more inspiration to unfold in the coming weeks, so excited for it all!! I really hope you are liking it over here because it really is this good. It only gets better.
Please feel free to check out the rest of the Blog website to get a feel for what we’re about. We are ever-growing over here, but are focused on supporting you as artists and people. My goal is also to sell beautiful clothing items in my boutique (for now) until we can expand and get some amazing pieces, there are some closet items under the Fashion category of this website – check it out! What types of clothing would you like to see over here? Like I said, feel free to DM or message me anywhere I’ve mentioned, I am here to serve others. Anyway – as always, I hope you have a beautiful day today and get plenty of sunshine aka Vitamin D. It’s good for you. Peace, love, and blessings ten thousand fold. Still with me?
Ballerina Hip Hop Lover
Always had a love for the hip hop community since a young age, so, this is how my style of doing this comes into play. As you can see I’m in ballet class at my studio back in the day. Ballerina who loves major rap and cool beats. I know I’ve included a lot of pictures of myself on the blog but this is just so you get to know who’s writing all this. So you get a picture for the face behind the message in a way so it seems realer. Words mean a lot in my field, but, a vibe and understanding by way of feeling is something different, ya know?
Dance Education
I did briefly teach ballet and dance team style of hip hop to youth for a couple years, but I found myself liking to take classes more myself to grow. But, you learn a lot teaching and I still keep in touch with the few students I taught. By no means am I a professional just a girl who loves hip hop dance and style. I do still enjoy teaching dance to very small children but enjoy taking the harder classes by the Masters, haha. Looking to cover more people, dancers and artists who do have a formal background and training in the art of dance as well. This street style of doing things is not limited to growth, so, please reach out if you’re interested in this platform way of doing things! And of course all self taught people are more than welcome, like I said… I’m calling everybody to be apart of community. We are better and stronger together, and can fulfill our own dreams easily we are easily supportive. Just Reach Out, fr.
Meet Janina, aka “Nina”
Passion for photojournalism and photography started in high school, writing and doing cover stories for my class Yearbook. Studied Criminology in college while simultaneously working as a Legal Assistant at a small family firm. Always felt like there was something more I was meant to do until the passion for this blog creeped back in almost as a tribute to the lives of people I have met thus far. Creating a community that is open minded, all inclusive and welcoming all sorts of new inspiration and information is important while giving back to people, as mentioned previously countless times. You are unique, “fearfully and wonderfully made” as my faith in Christ Jesus grows, as does more my connection in spirit to the Father and people in unity with the Holy Spirit (Psalms 139:14-16 English Standard Version). If you’re new to believing in God, I’m the perfect person to talk to about this. Hit me up anytime. Love ♡.
