Dizie

Brandon, a Detroit native can really bring it. Normally I feature larger models on this blog, but this self proclaimed ‘thin African-American model’ has a great look and skills.

Eric Coak

September 28, 2009 – 12:16 am

This shoot with Eric was a pleasure. While the pace seemed slow, the results were worth it. Usually the first look is a warm up. This time, we were hot from the beginning and ice cold at the end. The last look is so bad, I won’t even show it to you.

Herman Go

September 25, 2009 – 12:28 am

When I started shooting models, I jumped right in. I think Herman Go was my third subject. As time goes by, I look back at what I have done and realize my growth. There are so many things I could have done better.

Harold

Harold might be the smallest male model I have every worked with. The 18-year-old, 1.77m (5-10) Floridian thin-stress tips the scale at just 52kg (115-pounds) on a good day.
