New Studio!

I finally got around to taking a pic of my new photo studio. It's kind of a crazy maze winding your way through the building to get to it, but it's definitely nice once you get there. I might shoot a fun little video of the walk to get there someday, but for now... here it is!

Makeup Artist Photo Shoot

My makeup artist Lori Delmer has been working with me for about 2 years. We've been a great team, we get along wonderfully, and I am always happy (as are the models) with the results.

With my shoots though, the focus isn't usually on crazy experimental makeup. So Lori isn't really allowed to "show off" her abilities as much as she would probably like to. That being the case, I like to occasionally give Lori complete control over a shoot - the model selection, the makeup, the wardrobe, and the overall vibe. For this time around, she found a wonderful model named Lindsay, and also decided to pose in some of them herself as well! (Lori is the blonde one)

We just finished up the shoot, so I thought I would share! If anyone needs an amazing makeup artist, please contact Lori at mualorid@gmail.com! Her rates are great, and she always does a wonderful job!





The rest of the photos can be viewed here.

iJustine interview in Jenesis Magazine

iJustine.

Either you know the name and follow her everywhere online or you have no idea who I'm talking about... but chances are that your friends do.



Justine Ezarik is a friend of mine that went from being a relatively unknown girl who happens to love technology, to an internet phenomenon. She has an enormous group of followers that watch all of her videos on her own site ijustine.com and YouTube, follow her updates on Twitter, and are friends with her on countless other social networking sites.

She may have gained a lot of fame in the last couple of years, but it's nice to see that she hasn't changed. While she could have gone to some bigwig photographer in Los Angeles, where she currently lives... she decided to contact me to do a photo shoot for her ever expanding promotions.

The latest usage was for a magazine called Jenesis. They did a 7 page article on her, using some of the photos from our latest shoot. You can read the article in the PDF of the magazine here. She is on page 69 - 75.



So if you aren't already following her online, now's your chance to see what you're missing!
