I met
Otis College art student
Carol Seleme Daniel in late
January 2011. At the time, she had a pretty nice
portfolio on Model Mayhem,
but really hadn't received any major exposure.
This was kind of surprising to me, because she
seemed to be an accident waiting to happen (in a
good way). So we set up a shoot in early
February, and just as I expected, the moment her
feature hit the blog it went viral and was
picked up by several other popular urban blogs.
As a result, I decided to submit the photos I
had taken of her to the editor of
Smooth magazine. Within 15
minutes of receiving the photos, the editor
contacted me and said she wanted to do a major
photo layout on Carol. That feature will debut
in May, but a preview - the Rear View - was also
dropped in the most recent issue of Smooth with
Daphne Joy on the cover.
Of course, this wouldn't have happened if Carol
hadn't been a great model who was willing to trust
what I wanted to do with her. It's also a prime
example of how the internet is a new and powerful
channel for exposure for aspiring models.
