So So Def Recording artist Dondria recently went back to her hometown of Dallas, TX and teamed up with Dallas natives and creative photographer/make-up/styling gurus Steven D. Hill, Traci Moore, and April Bailey for a promotional photoshoot.
After being discovered on YouTube and signing to Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def Recording label, Dondria released her first studio album “Dondria v/s Phatfffat” in August.
Steven D Hill stated that during the photo-shoot they went for a natural look and appearance that displayed Dondria’s everyday character and style. More photos will be released of Dondria at a later date. Check out a few shots and video footage of Dondria and the Dallas glam squad.
