00:00I never thought gymnastics was really going to be my sport, it was something that kind
00:04of calmed me down.
00:05I had really bad ADHD when I was younger and my parents couldn't technically control me
00:09at certain times, so it got to a point where they were just like, hey, let's put you in
00:13a sport and see what happens.
00:18My tattoos definitely have a meaning to them.
00:21My right side has my Olympic rings on it, which I've gone to two Olympics.
00:26How I see it is my right side is my shield and my armor, my left side is all the imperfections
00:31that I've ever had in my life.
00:32I get to embrace both sides.
00:34I think in the fashion world for me it's really just about the final statement.
00:38A lot of people say bags are like their go-to, but for me it's like sunglasses, like something
00:42that's just like an awe factor.
00:45I was that kid in school who would show up with toe socks and knee socks and all these
00:49crazy things because I felt like fashion really is a lot of self-expression.
00:54It's developed a lot though, I've been able to really understand how people match golds
00:58and silvers together and patterns and certain looks and shoes and all that stuff.
01:02I've just enjoyed this whole shoot in general.
01:05A lot of the outfits that I had were definitely out of my comfort zone, but I am honestly happy
01:09about the outcome.
01:11You realize, okay, wait, these things actually work for me, they look good on me, or just in
01:15general your creative mind can go a different direction.
01:19Jordan being the incredible acrobatic gymnast that she is, we just wanted to play into that
01:24and showcase that in an elevated fashion style.
01:27So we have her doing a lot of very intricate, structured poses and going to be compositing
01:32them together.
01:33So just seeing her really express herself on camera has been amazing.
01:36I love to lean more into warmth, I love to lean more into vibrancy.
01:41With darker skin tones you have more of the reds, more of the oranges.
01:44Jordan being lighter, I've seen a little more of the yellow undertones, which works well
01:48into the warmth that I like to play into.
01:50And the clothes that we've been experimenting in the backgrounds as well really help bring
01:54out the vibrancy in her undertones.
01:55The blue surprised me, it was a last minute game winner.
01:59We did a combination of continuous light as well as strobe lighting, which creates this
02:02little blur of light that really just adds a nice effect to clothes and to promotion.
02:08My collaboration with Tyler today has been so fun.
02:11I definitely can say his eye for who the person is, is amazing.
02:15He's done incredible work.
02:17Him understanding the flow and what I do and just being creative.
02:21I think that's the biggest thing is understanding your craft and if you understand your work
02:25and what you want to see and be a part of, then you know you're going to create something
02:29great.
02:30A lot of self-confidence probably does come from a lot of affirmations I do tell myself
02:34like in the mirror.
02:35That's where I'm That Girl came from, is understanding that even on my downfalls and my worst days, that
02:40I can just get back up and understand, look, you are that girl and you can continue to push
02:44forward and conquer.
02:46When I was watching the 2008 Olympics, I was watching gymnastics and I had told my mom,
02:51I was like, that's what I want to do.
02:52I want to become an Olympian.
02:54I didn't say in what sport.
02:55I thought I was going to be like track and field or something else because that's what
03:00I did before gymnastics.
03:01By the time I was about 14 or 15 years old, I was like, hmm, this could be something that,
03:07you know, I could become an Olympic for.
03:09Yeah.
