Models for Upcoming Shoot
For this upcoming shoot, I’m working with Maree from Marilyn Agency and Paul from Q Models. I’m looking forward to working with two models on set and seeing how they interact with each other.
Nathalie Edenburg Photo Selects and Video
Nathalie Edenburg, from Marilyn Agency, just booked a contract with Victoria’s Secret and is also featured a number of times in the current issue of V Magazine. This photoshoot with her went very well and I couldn’t be happier with how the video and images turned out. Enjoy!
Production Stills from shoot with Nathalie Edenburg
Here are a few production stills from my most recent photoshoot. Behind-the-scenes video and final selects coming soon…
Models for Tomorrow’s Photoshoot
Tomorrow, I’ll be shooting Nathalie from Marilyn and Gona from Trump. I’m working with my favorite makeup artist and hair stylist. I also have my good friend Christopher, helping out with a behind-the-scenes video. Should be a good shoot!

Hair Story with Chantal
One aspect I enjoy most about Beauty test shoots is the freedom to experiment and try something less conventional. This shoot with Chantal Stafford-Abbott from Marilyn is a perfect example.
We had just finished the shoot with Ieva and had already exceeded our allotted time in the studio space (every additional 15 minutes increased the studio overtime fee). So, time was most definitely of the essence.
We started shooting at 6:10 and finished at 6:50. That’s 4 different looks in 40 minutes! We had to work fast, problem solve quickly, and shoot quickly. I’m very pleased with how well everything came together and plan to submit the story to various online and print magazines. I’ll keep you posted with how those submissions go.

Side note: Congratulations to Chantal for just finishing the Marc Jacobs show for NYC fashion week!
Photoshoot with Ieva
This behind-the-scene video has been in the works for the last few weeks. After learning Final Cut Pro, I was able to edit and mix the clips with music. I enjoyed the production process immensely and look forward to bringing you more videos in the future! Below is a gallery of still images from the shoot. Enjoy!
Beauty Retouching
Sometimes retouching is pretty straightforward. At other times, it requires a little more imagination and finessing. This first beauty shot of Ieva Aniulyte came out very well, but the left hand is visually distracting. So, I found another image that I could use to “copy and paste”(see photo 2).
Here’s the basic process I went through:
First, I copied the knuckle edge from the right hand of photo one. I flipped this and positioned it appropriately (if you look closely, you can see that the edges of the knuckles are the same on the left and right hand).
Second, I copied the finger from photo 2, rotated it slightly, made it a bit smaller, and then positioned that accordingly. Finally, I blended everything together with the original image till it became what you see in photo 3, the finished version.
Ieva Aniulyte and her sister, Aida, just finished doing a show for Donna Karan. There are more photos of Ieva to follow plus a behind the scenes video, which is still in the editing process. Stay tuned!
