New Faces - Czyz Otto

I got to work with some new talent and I'm excited to see things develop and unfold.

Sunday Edition with Victor

Well I got a nice little surprise the other day, while recovering from some back pain.  I got to visit with an up and coming model named Victor.  He had just recently quit his day job and wanted to update his modeling portfolio.  Tell me what you think.

Sunday is always a nice day of rest.  So I thought it would be nice for you to rest your eyes on Cary Farrow.  He is an aspiring actor/model.  Let me know what you think.

Ok, so it's Saturday and I realize that I have not posted anything to this blog in two years.  Well a lot has happened to say the least and I'm happy to say that my art has gotten better.  This year started off with a bang and my eye for spotting talent is keener than ever.  Take a look at some of the latest finds.

In the beginning..From the Vault, it never got posted

So here it is on Sunday and I have decided to start a photography blog. I have discovered some new talent and thought I'd share our work. Let me see if I am able to figure out how to do this. The images are of Joshua Milk. He is a new model that is looking to expand his portfolio. He is a pleasure to work with and takes direction well.

I got to shoot with Micah P of the Model Mayhem fame. He is great to work with and very professional. He is helping me on several upcoming projects. He decided to cut all his hair off after our shoot together...

I met Dizzy Phoenix and he wanted to shoot a war editorial. He needed some images to kick off his new clothing line that he is working on. It was a fun collaboration. He did a great job.

Teresa Brown

Teresa and I have known each other for years. She will be doing an evening gown shoot soon. I had her model some pieces from a local designer. These were some of her test shots. She is a true professional and a lot of fun to work with.

Meet Andi Rutland

I discovered Andi on Model Mayhem. He wanted to volunteer for our transformation shoot. His hair was totally fried from too many bad dye jobs and he was in need of a cut. My hair goddess Crystel Franco and I came up with these results.

Little Miss Porsche

Porsche is like a breath of fresh air and a pleasure to work with. We happened to be signed with the same agency and I was assigned to do her head shots. We formed a nice friendship since then and have worked on a few shoots together. Let me know what you think of her.

Fight Club

I had the most interesting past two days working with two new male models, Joshua from Austin, Faaron from San Antonio and my good friend Josh. We came up with an idea and just ran with it. Let me know what you think. Here are some rough edits.

Luis De La Torre

Sometimes you come across people's portfolios and you just wonder if they would be willing to shoot with you. I've learned a long time ago to just ask. More times than not, people will say yes and you end up with some amazing images.

I get more and more inspired on every shoot that I do. Especially if the model is nailing some amazing shots in the various random places we end up. I am a sucker for finding awesome locations.

Luis was kind enough to schedule a shoot with me. After a few reschedules, we were finally able to meet up and do a shoot. He looked a little different from the last time I saw him, but still had the incredible smile I remembered.

In the beginning

This has been a great year so far. I have had the pleasure to work with some really great new models and people. My work keeps getting better and as a life long learner, I look forward to perfecting my craft even more.

Recently I completed a photo session with an up and coming model by the name of Joshua Milks. Here is some of our work.
