Revealed: Victor Price

Revealed is taking a look at Victor Price this Month.  Victor Price has been a friend of mine for a couple of years now, I met him through a friend while out for cocktails one night, and since then I have asked him to do a photo shoot which came out so marvelous and now an interview for the 202 blog. 

This past month has been a busy one for me.  Editing photos and collecting things for my blog and trying to find a new apartment in the city.  All awhile this is happening, I had time to do a photo shoot with Victor Price one weekend, and then the next weekend work with him again on another photo shoot with Rachel Panay in which he did styling and visual help on the shoot to make everything perfect.  Both shoots came out as some of my best work so far and I thank him for helping me.  

So let's get to this interview!

The 202) Where were you born and raised? 

Victor) Asheboro, NC but I'm an Army brat and spent my teenage years in Germany.

The 202) What Brought you to Washington DC? 

Victor) Honestly, I thought it would be a fun place to live after I graduated college and finished my term in the Air Force.

The 202) How did you get into Image consultant? and where has it brought you? 

Victor) When people started seeking my advice on interior design, clothing, and entertainment I knew I had knowledge that people wanted and would pay for.  Then I turned it into a business when other businesses took notice of the clientele I brought in. The business has allowed me to work with Esperanza Spaulding who just won a grammy for best new artist, great designers and a publicist in Miami, and international style credits for magazines in the UK and Ecuador.  In terms of clothing, the highlight was being able to use Iris Van Herpen's Armadillo heel (she designed it for McQueen) in a photo shoot! AMAZING!

Victor)  I see myself starting my own style agency.

The 202) What was your worst job?
