Zuri’s Confidence Is the Blueprint—and Why You’re Next!
By Henry | Parkway Studios
Some people don’t just take photos—they own the frame. That’s what happened when Zuri stepped into the studio. Draped in this bold fuchsia suit and standing tall in her power, she reminded us all what quiet confidence looks like when it’s fully activated.
Zuri’s journey didn’t start here. She has been a model for years, and when I met her in the original studio years ago, I noticed she had a presence—a quiet energy. Over time, whether traveling with us for creative shoots like the Dunes 1 and 2 or stepping in front of my lens again and again, I have seen and experienced her growth. She knows the language of the camera, and more importantly, she knows the language of her power.
And that’s the real secret: confidence isn’t a pose. It’s a practice. You build it by showing up, over and over again.
Why Her Story Matters to You
Whether you’re an aspiring model, a business professional trying to elevate your brand, or a woman simply reclaiming your presence, it’s time for you to stop hiding behind the lens and start owning your image.
Zuri’s shoot wasn’t just a portfolio update—it was a preview of what’s possible when you choose to show up with intention.
You can do this, too. But confidence doesn’t always come naturally.
That’s where the Confidence Academy Workshops come in.
What Is The Confidence Academy?
Launching in Summer 2025, the Confidence Academy is a series of workshops designed to help you feel powerful on camera—even if you’ve never done a shoot before. You’ll learn:
- How to pose with ease (even if you feel awkward)
- What to do with your hands (yes, we get that question all the time)
- Facial expressions that speak before you do
- And how to tap into your authentic energy, on and off camera
This isn’t just a class. It’s a transformation.
You’ll learn from Zuri, working models. Also you’ll work with photographers who’ll teach you what they want to see in front of the lens—and how to pull it out of yourself every time.
Let Zuri Be the Reminder
Confidence isn’t reserved for the naturally bold. It’s something you build. And the first step? Show up, Show Out. Again and again. Until it feels like second nature.
Zuri did it—and now it’s your turn.
Be Bold. Be You.
The Confidence Academy launches in Summer 2025.
Be ready.
