On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Rich Rocket to the Friends in Beauty guest chair. Growing up with very humble beginnings, Rich learned at a very young age how to resourcefully make something from nothing. Expression was second nature to Rich, even though social normality and small town mentality kept his creativity at bay for most of his adolescence. After high school, Rich began his journey into higher education, and self exploration. He began working various jobs, to fuel his creative ambitions. In college he would get his first dose of event production, and hosting. He went on to host over 30 events in his short lived college career.

 

 Once he developed Rich Rocket Media into a sustainable Graphic Design business, winning “Graphic Designer of the year” from 2016 Titan Arts Awards, he decided to expand the brand, and developed his skills as a photographer, and creative director. Delivering quality portrait, lifestyle, fashion, and editorial photographs, Rich really allowed his eye to explode behind the lens, as well as in front of it. With his ambitions to understand a model’s perspective, he contributes to the body positive movement, showing the world that art doesn’t have a size requirement.

 

 A large part of Rich's power in front of the camera was lent from his personal style. Classically eccentric, with modern flair. After years of only admiring fashion, he decided to market his brand to the people, thus Vintage Thrivals was born. A clothing company that markets innovative, created, and vintage pieces while celebrating the coolness of today, the freshness of the 90's and the uniqueness of the 80's!
