PJ

July 19, 2010 – 8:42 pm

After living in Chicago for almost 7 years, I have only seen the summer sun rise on Lake Michigan twice. I had always wanted to do a shoot at sunrise, but I was always fearful that the model would flake. A few weeks ago I tried to do a shoot, but I fell back a sleep and the model was messaging me on facebook, instead of calling me…… so we missed each other. However, this past weekend, I made sure I was out of bed on time by setting one alarm for 4:30am and the second alarm for 4:40am. I had lined up to models for the shoot, just in case one of them flaked… and they did. However, what you see below is that magic Make-up Artist Brandon Phillips and I made with model PJ at a time when most people were still snoozing.

You might remember Nick from my very first blog post. This time I decided to switch from football to Volleyball and black-and-white to color.

Teagen R

June 26, 2010 – 2:53 pm

When I was in Texas shooting Nathan H, I was also working with model Teagen R. The 1.82M (6-0), 86kg (190lb), 22-year old was nice enough to brave the cool waters of the Gulf of Mexico and pose in a variety of swimwear.

Robear S

May 8, 2010 – 8:06 am

After I went to Houston for the soccer shoot, I decided to return and do a 1-on-1 with model Robear S. After a long drive all over the west side of this Texas town, we finally found a soccer net with a nice background.

Devon A / Joe T

April 26, 2010 – 12:03 am

The morning of my shoot with Devon Adonis, he sent me a text asking me if I would have someone on hand to do hair and make up like I did for Joe T’s shoot…… before that moment all I knew was that Devon was visiting from Boston and staying with a friend….. that friend [...]

Joshua R

April 18, 2010 – 12:25 am

I first worked with Joshua R on the Dining Out for Life shoot…. a few weeks later he wanted to do a solo shoot. I must admit I was skeptical…. I thought his look was too commercial….. boy was I wrong.

Tony

Meanwhile back in Miami…… Puerto Ricano Tony joined me at the beach for what I hoped would be a sun set shoot…. but the clouds got in the way. There are a lot of variables photographers can control… but the weather is not one of them.

Braeden B 2

March 9, 2010 – 12:05 am

When you find a great model or an attractive person you want to date, but they are taken, a little voice in the back of your head makes you wonder…. Does he have a hot friend? That first model was Braeden, who happens to have not one, but two hot friends, CP and Steve.

Bienvenidos a Miami. I needed a break from the cold so I decided to do some shoots in Miami. Thankfully, Danny was available.
