Stacie Isabella Turk has established this site mostly with the intention of making her photographic images available to the advertising community, individual companies and corporations for licensing. It is her hope that RIBBONHEAD’S extensive and intimate archive might satisfy advertising needs as a source of unique and powerful images.

As A Photographer...
Stacie has been behind a still camera as a commercial lifestyle and candid portraiture photographer for seventeen years. Her eclectic background, inclusive of research, management and marketing, has proven to be a valuable tool when she produces all her own photo shoots, which is always.

Commercial clients include MTV/NICKELODEON, GREY ADVERTISING WORLDWIDE, DOWNY FABRIC SOFTENER, FINE LIVING, COLUMBIA TRISTAR, GLASS MCCLURE ADVERTISING, MOLINA HEALTHCARE, THE DEBORAH KING INSTITUTE , IAMPLIFY, APPLE PIE, THOMPSON LEARNING/SOUTHWESTERN PUBLICATIONS, WRITERS BOOTCAMP, WHAT MERMAIDS WEAR, SKARPA, HIGH NOTE RECORDS, SHE, JAI LIFESTYLE, KATE STERN and THE VINTAGE INN among others.

Her images can also be seen on film posters for award winning shorts: MITZI AND JOE, DOWN DOG and SHIVA’S TEARDROP.

As A Director/Producer

Stacie began directing and producing commercials in 1997 with her directorial debut of HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT (a PSA on the topic of domestic violence.) As Writer and Executive Producer she also enlisted sponsors, United Way and Cedars Sinai Hospital. The spot screened on fifty (50) Metropolitan Movie Theatre screens, as well as being chosen for broadcast by MTV. It also launched the Filmmakers Alliance PSA program, as a $68,000 spot produced for $8,500. Next was IMAGINE, a PSA on the topic of children and gun violence. This spot, sponsored by The Brady Campaign Against Gun Violence, screens in 508 Edwards, Regal, UA and AMC theatres nationwide on their Lobby Entertainment Networks, summer 2006. It was the winner of "Best PSA" in the La Femme Film Festival, 2005. BRAND NEW DAY is a spot for Mars that is a platinum winner of Worldfest Houston Film Festival 2005 and Silver winner of Summit Creative Awards 2005. It was an Official Selection of the LA Femme Film Festival 2005. As a producer for other directors, her first two :30 sec. spots for CABLE IN THE CLASSROOM have won six awards, including two Gold awards in the CINDY'S and WORLDFEST. These spots aired on 120 cable networks.

Stacie directed and produced the short film, LOVE, LIFE AND LAUNDRY, spending two years with her hands on all phases of pre-production through post production including raising money, budgets, six weeks of rehearsals, production, sound mixes, music licensing and composition, film to video, video to film and negative cutting. Ultimately, the film was made for $20,000 but has $250,000 production resource value. MOVIEMAKER MAGAZINE featured an article on both the film and the filmmaker upon completion.

LOVE, LIFE AND LAUNDRY was well received at The Nashville Independent Film Festival, Sony Pictures Studio and the Director’s Guild of America.

Stacie was a managing member for three years of an eleven year old organization, FILMMAKERS ALLIANCE (a non-profit independent filmmaking collective.) The majority of that time was spent as Director of Corporate Affairs, procuring sponsors, vendors, membership and contributing to organizational strategy. "Having witnessed its growth from 13 members meeting in a basement to the now 320 member strong organization with close to 300 films to their credit, I am pleased to have been a part of this rapidly growing organization, contributing to its early shape and growth. I am especially gratified to have helped conceive and produce the first corporate sponsored (Mellon Bank,) DGA screening event, now annual."
