On July 27, 2025, the red carpet at Summer Breeze 2025 lit up with more than just sequins and spotlight. It shimmered with purpose. Hosted by MusiQ Production, this event brought together the rhythm of live music and the pulse of fashion in support of Love Changing The World, a nonprofit serving unsheltered communities, foster youth, low-income families, and individuals with disabilities.
Behind the Scenes
The day started early. Hair and makeup artists arrived to set up, followed by the installation of LED runway screens, sound checks, and final rehearsals. From behind the camera, I watched every moment of preparation unfold with care and intention. It was a team effort built on dedication and heart.
The Show Begins
At 3:00 PM, the lights dimmed and the show began with a short video honoring the volunteers and impact of the cause. From there, the energy never let up. Designers took the stage with standout collections. The runway became a living narrative. Each look a chapter. Each model a storyteller.

A Celebration of Artistry
Live music acts brought rhythm and soul to the space between fashion segments. From JD Charisma to Phil Q and Queen Zel, every performance elevated the experience. Host interludes, comedy, and personal stories added warmth and made the evening feel like a celebration among friends.
A Sweet Surprise
At 7:00 PM, Laia stepped forward with a birthday cake, lighting up the room with joy. The Las Bonitas Surprise reminded us that celebration and cause can coexist. It was a moment of pure happiness.
Closing with Community
The after party carried the energy into the night. It was the perfect way to close an evening rooted in style, sound, and service.
To everyone involved, thank you. Summer Breeze 2025 was a powerful expression of creativity and connection. I’m honored to have captured these moments and grateful for the stories we shared together.
