More Good Bully - Christina Santini

07/26/11 04:40 PM Filed in: Video Vixens
The Good Bully project is an example of what can go wrong on outdoor shoots. The day started off completely sunny, but when we drove to the Venice Canals, a cloud cover set in. It looked very much like the photos on this page. It literally went from sunny in our starting point, to looking like rain 5 miles west of that. We started shooting, but I just couldn't get the look I had promised the client because there was no sun in the sky. So I had to make an executive decision and we turned around and went back to where we started from to get some shots with sun. You can't fake sun easily in post. And while there are advantage to the overcast look, if you want sun, there is no substitute really. Fortunately, there were a few areas I had been looking at for a while and people were nice and let us get on with our shoot without interruption. All in all, a good day.

New Carol Seleme Daniel Candids...

07/25/11 03:12 PM Filed in: Video Vixens
Indosplace favorite, Carol Seleme Daniel, at a recent fashion event. Check out the video at 1080p: after the intro with Carol, go to the 6 min mark. There's a certain panache about her presence that was only hinted at in the photos. She's starting to become more self possessed of her sexy.

Good Bully - Christina Santini

07/22/11 12:48 AM Filed in: Video Vixens
Good Bully is a design firm on the East Coast that has created logos and CD covers for Wale and Mike Posner. He's launching a new line of clothing and I was privileged to have the opportunity to initiate the campaign, photographically speaking.

Christina is a hot new model on the scene with BRAND Agency. In a mere six months, she has done a Boost Mobile campaign and a Chase Bank ad. She was a pleasure to work with - exceptionally easy going and professional.

Melanie Yvette on TODAY Show... Again!

07/19/11 01:28 AM Filed in: Video Vixens
For the past month or so, Melanie and I have been trying to coordinate a shoot and I can't say enough good things about her. She's humble, professional, and very intelligent. Combine this with natural good looks and it's a sure bet Melanie will go far. She's a shining example of what urban models* could be if they really took things seriously and stopped just relying on sex appeal to get by. Melanie is also a staff writer for the blog Lovelyish.com.

*Melanie is not an urban model, but I'm just sayin'...

Brittney Leigh - Curvy Pro Model

07/08/11 01:34 PM Filed in: Video Vixens
I came upon Brittney Leigh Glaze's photos last week and I was really impressed with the consistency and volume of professional work she has done. But I was also intrigued by the fact that she's curvy. I think Brittney demonstrates that there is a fine line models can walk where they stay true to their natural shape, but book pro jobs because they maintain fitness.

Brittney is extremely photogenic and brings a certain uniqueness to all her photos, irrespective of who shot her. At any rate, I thought my regular bloggers would enjoy this feature. She also responded positively to my request to feature her, and that's a thumbs up from me woohoo33 (Tim Pethel, shot Brittney in green dress. All other photo credits where indicated)

KING Magazine Premiere Issue - Winter 2002

07/08/11 12:33 AM Filed in: Video Vixens
One of the long time members here recently asked me about the official run of original KING Magazine (not the recently ressurrected version which is all T&A and no editorial content). For the record - and even I didn't realize this until tonight - there was a Preview Issue of KING that debuted in August 2002. Then the regular run began sometime in Winter 2002 and lasted until April 2009, when it was officially announced that KING was closing down its doors. One of the issues in contention is whether the urban mags really ever had quality ads in them (which eventually decreased over time as the pictorials became raunchier) or whether that is just an "urban legend." My oppoent - oops, I mean blog member Winking - appears ready to cast aside this quote from a 2007 Village Voice article: "[T]itles exclusively devoted to the subject (urban modeling) are a relatively new phenomenon, and national advertisers don't yet seem convinced of their power to persuade. While King features spots from Newport cigarettes, Harley-Davidson, and Budweiser, BlackMen relies partly on porn titles like The Big Ass Party 2 and Booties on Duty 3. Smooth resorts to penis-enlargement pill"

At any rate, I'll let RG assert his position on this matter, but I'm not even sure I disagree with him. BTW, these are new scans (not sure I've ever seen this inside page scan of Leila on the net)

Nicole Mejia - New Model on The Scene

07/04/11 03:42 PM Filed in: Video Vixens
Nicole just recently opened a Model Mayhem profile, but I have been interested in her ever since seeing her work with photographer Ayo Andrsn. There is a certain interesting quality to this Nicole, like an intelligence in the eyes. Anyway, I really like what she's done so far and wish her the best. (Look at the lighting in that last photo!)

One of my favorite recent swimsuit calendars. The photo of Anna is the best of how to combine natrual light with artificial lighting. (Scans by me!)
