Latin Love

November 13, 2009 – 12:50 am

After my first shoot with Leo Franco, I asked him if he had any friends who should model. A few weeks later and I was shooting Leo with his friend Adam David. Both of them were so free and open minded, which was perfect for this type of pics. Shoots like this make so many [...]

Olexys

November 9, 2009 – 12:54 am

My first time working with Olexys, a former military pilot, exceeded expectations. My second time working with Olexys really taught me how to shoot a head shot. His Daniel Craig looks combined with two reflectors and a shallow depth of field really worked out!

Lust

November 3, 2009 – 12:00 am

Andrei and Julius asked me to do a shoot for them.. it was way outside of the box for me, but I enjoyed the challenge. Shooting a lust series for the two of them sparked my interests because I could use both my photojournalistic and lighting skills at the same time. Just as I had [...]

Practice

October 28, 2009 – 12:09 am

The designer talked me into shooting these clothes claiming he would get the pics published, but that never happened…i guess you could call this set practice!

Boutique

October 19, 2009 – 12:07 am

Often times I come up with a shoot idea and then contact make-up artists. However, when Make-up Artist Brandon Phillips called me about a shoot he wanted to do, I was all ears. The retro boutique he lined up was amazing and the pictures we came up with pleased me equally.

Bowling, But Far From Alone

October 10, 2009 – 12:38 am

The bowling alley near the home of Stylist Richard Paden is lost in time.  Its such a unique location, that we had to line up a shoot there with scene sppropriate clothing. I wanted a to do a shoot that mirrored a group date… but models being models, so many people canceled on us and [...]

A Day at the Beach

July 12, 2009 – 12:20 am

What better way to spend an early summer day than with a day at the beach. Stylist Isaac King and I decided to do a lifestyle shoot with three tall good looking black models: Jaquez Andre, Sherrod Antionne, and Isaiah Ross. Sherrod was only there for a minute, Isaac cast Isaiah and I cast Jaquez. [...]

Eric Lueshen

July 3, 2009 – 12:53 am

Eric Lueshen was a god send. I was in the need of more models and my friend Brian F, who will be featured here soon, suggested I contact Eric. When he arrived at the shoot I was blown away… his looks are nothing short of striking.

Adam David

June 18, 2009 – 1:22 am

Some people want to model, other people get asked to model, Adam David should model. The 5-10 (1.8m) 165lb (75kg)  20-year-old Puerto Rican personal trainer is a natural who is as open minded as he is blessed.
