Orange County Photoshoot

Briana Baldovinos at Victoria Beach and the Studio

Briana Baldovinos and I met up in Orange County, California.

We started the shoot indoors at a photo studio, and then headed to the coast to shoot at Victoria Beach.

This shoot was massive. We spent 2 hours in the studio and then at least an hour and a half on the beach. We got a ton of epic photos, and I had a blast chatting with Briana during the shoot! On top of dance, she’s also crushing it in academia. Below is a short interview with her.

Give us an introduction

Hello Everyone, my name is Briana Baldovinos and I am a 22 year old freelance dancer! I currently work at Disneyland as a parade performer in “Magic Happens”. I just recently graduated from UC Riverside with my Bachelor’s of Science in Neuroscience.

What’s your favorite food?

My favorite food is SUSHI!!! I love sushi and can never get tired of it.

What music are you listening to this summer?

My music genre varies on how I’m feeling, but this summer I have really been into house music!

What do you enjoy about modeling?

I enjoy the aspect of letting my confidence shine when modeling. I feel like I can really let the true art form of dance come to life when modeling and allow those who view it see the beauty of dance as well.

What’s something people might not know about you?

Some people may not know that I am premed! I would love to pursue a career in the medical filed and enjoy helping others!

What’s a piece of art (movie, painting, play, ballet, broadway, television show, book, song, poem, etc..) That moved you the most this year so far?

A book that’s moved me is “They both die in the end”, it’s about 2 boys who get news that they will die by the end of the day and don’t know how. They each are looking for a friend to spend their day with and it just puts into perspective that life is short and to make everyday a great day filled with love.

Would you rather Kayak 50 miles or Skateboard 50 miles?

I would rather skateboard 50 miles, my leg strength is much greater than my upper body strength.

What’s your plan for 2025?

In 2025 I would like to continue to grow in my dance and modeling  career and gain more opportunities. I would also like to continue in my medical career and pursue my dreams.
