Grace

Grace recently won the "Miss Mark & Brian 2009" Beauty Pageant over at the KLOS 95.5 radio station. We were both pleased with the results from our photo shoot on Saturday and look forward to working together again soon.

Just Dance

Here's Jessalyn. She attended Juilliard and can do some amazing things. I was very impressed.

Christina

Yes, I still love cowboy hat shots....

Great profile

This is Rachel, who I've worked with twice now. She's a lot of fun, and always has a witty comeback. I like her strong features, so I wanted to accentuate that. She has some of the best lips I've ever seen. Also, I tried to use her hair as more of a graphic elemnet. I like the straights and the curves....and the shapes her hair creates.

Lummi Island Shoot

So I went up to Washington state with some friends, to see some friends, and I ended up making a new friend. This is Kim, who lives up in Bellingham, Washington. I was fortunate enough to coordinate a shoot with her, and she was such a delight to work with. I stayed on Lummi Island which is located off the coast of Washington, near Bellingham. My friends Brian and Leigh currently live there, and their place has a spectacular view of the water. The entire island is really beautiful, so I was glad I was able to shoot with someone while I was there. Kim and I got along very well right away, and I'm sure she'll be down in L.A. soon to shoot with me again! A special thanks to Leigh and Brian for being such great hosts and for helping me out with the shoot. This shot was actually taken on their balcony which overlooks the water.

My friend Jessie...

Jessie and I just had our third shoot together, and it went very well. She's got great energy and is always fun to be around.

Daniela

Sometimes you see a model, and you just know they'll be perfect for "Pin Up." Daniela is one of those girls.

Beautiful.....Can you guess her ethnicity?

Ashley

This is one of the tougher Pin Up poses, but Ashley pulled it off with ease.

The Mighty Erika

She may only be 5 feet tall, but Erika performed like a superstar.
These shots were done in a very simple way....just one Nikon flash and a piece of foam core (tanktop shots).....but they are some of my favorites of the year so far.
