Meet the Models: T.L.

T.L. was another website referral model. The same guy that had referred several other girls to shoot, had referred T.L. and said she was going to do awesome. As soon as he started talking to me about her, I had my reservations. Why? you will see with in the next sentence or two. T.L. was

Meet the Models: Sheena

In my Old School Friday post I had said Sheena was a game changer for me. She wasn’t as personal as it were with some of my clients today, but a game changer in the fact that I had wanted to explore digital more and sh was a willing subject. I posted an ad at

Meet the Models: Maegan

The date was October 8, 2008 and I was getting prepared for my shoot with Ms. Maeggy! A few weeks prior her and I had discussed a shoot. I was breaking into High School Senior photography and she was the perfect person to start with. We had found each other on a model portfolio site

Meet the Models: Erika

Loooong ago (before the Sandy2012) I had posted Erika in my first ever “Old School Friday” post and said one day I would tell her story. Soon after that I got the idea for “Meet the Models” and went full steam ahead with that. I had always come back to wanting to do a write

Meet the Models: Janelle

You  may have noticed that there wasn’t an Old School Friday post last week. This is because I took last week off for the holidays, my birthday and the blogs 4th year of being in business! The other reason is that the Meet the Model model I’m updating with this week is one that I

Meet the models: Taylor

In one of the most requested of the “Meet the Models” series, I invite you to meet Taylor!  I am not sure how Taylor and I came into contact with each other but I know the first time we had a shoot planned, she was unable to make it. We had planned everything out and

Meet the Models: Paige

Meet the Models: Sera

Meet Sera. A few years back I was heavily into the model portfolio website world. I used to make tons of contacts and connections via them. It really was a craps shoot but every now and then I got lucky. I had met Sera via one of those sites and we agreed to have her

Meet the Models: Vicki

As promised on last weeks Old School Friday post, meet Vicki. I’m not sure how Vicki found me but she did. Initially, I was glad she did because she had a “classic” physical beauty that I loved. Natural or with make up, she was beautiful and very easy on the eyes. She contacted me and

Meet the Models: Jodi P

Last Friday’s Old School Friday exposed you to Jodi. Today, you get to meet her. I met Jodi on a model portfolio site. She was in Fort Collins which was about 45 minutes away from me so I made the drive. I had also shot several other models so it was well worth the trip. When I

Meet the Models: Megan

As I promised from last weeks Old School Friday, you are now meeting Megan! Megan is what I consider my first real shoot in Colorado. I had shot an associate of hers and she saw the photos. She wanted some like it so she came in to shoot. She had sent me photos of herself

Meet the Models: Layla

Last week I posted for Old School Friday and the model was Layla. I said at that time I would do a Meet the Models on her and here we are. I honestly don’t remember where Layla and I met up, I do know it was online. The first shoot that we had scheduled, she flaked out

Meet the Models: Hosnah Safi

Kabulie is a young lady that found me through mutual friends. Actually, I think she found me via Audrey. Either way, she had contacted me and wanted to shoot. The first two times we set up a session, she flaked on me. This was right around the time I started to relax my “flake factor” rules

Meet the Models: Meg

Meg was scheduled to go up last week but I was out of town on the mini vacation. I could have put up something quick, but why cheat her? I met Meg through a mutual model named Ember. Ember had contacted me about wanting to model and came in for a shoot. She had a

Meet Jessica F

Today’s “Meet the Model” is Jessica F. I had written Jessica long ago about a shoot. She blew me off. I was crushed. She said she didn’t get it, but I don’t believe her  Either way, fast foward a year or so and we’re friends on Facebook. I needed a model and posted that I was

Meet the Models: Audrey

I first met Audrey on Facebook. She was a friend of a friend and I loved her look.

She listed on her Facebook page that she was Brazilian, so I sent her a message that said “você muito bonito!” I never got a response from her so I didn’t know if I offended her by telling her “You’re very pretty”

Meet the Models: Danielle

Meet Danielle. I was still “New” to Colorado and had shot a few people. Right around the time I exploded on to the Colorado market, I had shot a friend of Danielle’s. Danielle had contacted me and wanted to shoot, but she was leaving for Vegas Thursday. She contacted me Tuesday and wanted to shoot Wednesday. I agreed

Meet Lauren

I first met Lauren in April of 2010. When I saw her photos, I thought “Wow! She’s really pretty!” In her photos, she never smiled and the mystery of her intrigued me. Right away I thought she was a glamour girl and I wanted to shoot her. I honestly forgot how we actually started talking, but not soon after we had a date to shoot. If you know ANYTHING about models you know that 10am your and my time, is actually 10:20-11:00 model time. I was on my way to the studio at 10am when she text’d me and told me she had been outside since 9:45 waiting for me!

Meet Cass

In tradition with meeting the models, I want to keep it going with Cass. I met Cass online about a year ago. She has a look that drew me in right away. I found her wit and quips to be second to none therefore shooting her was a must. We talked here and there for about a year, then one day she contacted me and told me she was moving to FL and wanted to shoot before she left. The day we shot, she just got her braces off earlier in the a.m. and was excited to shoot. We shot several different styles and I have to say, this series…captured my eye She had so much fun she’s coming back in on my birthday in a few weeks and we’re shooting again! I can’t wait as this second shoot will be even hotter!

Meet Chelsea

The photos of her shows my progression of a shoot. We start in clothes and move to their highest level of glamour. Poses stay pretty much the same. This is for the simple fact that mentally, he helps them relax because they KNOW the pose and if implied/nude is new to them, this will help them with any mental blocks or concerns regarding it.
