Ticha Penicheiro, is a guard for the Sacramento Monarchs basketball team and one of their most popular players. I photographed her to publicize an upcoming charity event called Getta Cue, a billiard event she is hosting along with Peja Stojakovich.
We went to her house to do the photo shoot and she has this gorgeous billiard table in an area just off the kitchen that worked perfectly for the pictures-- an unexpected bonus. The light in the room was bright and even with crystal white walls so we set up a seamless backdrop and it made the job so much easier to light. Meanwhile in the opposite corner she was getting her hair and make up done... I would love having a pro do my hair and face all the time! Decorating-wise Ticha has great taste. She has such beautiful, colorful and comfortable furniture everywhere.
