Who doesn't like to play in the water...Ayda has shown us in the past that she loves it. I love being able to capture one of Ethiopia's finest glamour models. Each time Adya and I get together we create such beautiful work and getting it published is icing on the cake. We got these images published in Arsenic Magazine.

Not everyone gets me at times, I'm OK with that. I don't try to fit into molds, groups, or certain stereotypes. Instead I create and enjoy what comes from it. Some days it's fashion, other days it's glamor, but Dark Beauty is a genre that I enjoy because most don't understand it, and it always strikes a crazy conversation. It requires you to think a little differently, outside the box and non typical. That type of thinking lead to this image to being published in Dark Beauty Magazine.

Simple yet effective! Llauryn Hendrix has a presence, look, body and smile that leaves you speechless every time. Her posing and attention to detail of what the photographer is trying to capture is impeccable. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with Llauryn the day she came to shoot with me, but I saw something else evolving and captured these images first, which was later published in Ellements Magazine. We still did the looks I had planned but I'm happy I took 10 minutes to knock this beauty look out as well.

Night life can be pretty fun and beautiful to capture if done correctly. One spring night we headed out to do just that. Myself Model Zaire and Make-Up Artist Melanie teamed up and created an awesome editorial. These are a couple images published in Super Selected Magazine.

Some of my favorite places to shoot are places I'm not supposed to be in the first palce! It adds a little danger, suspense and a very short time limit. I located this home that had caught on fire some time ago. Seemed like the perfect backdrop for a shoot. A couple days later, myself and the model were in the middle of what remained of that home and prayed it didn't come down around us. After our shoot, my gear and both of our attire were filthy but well worth what we endured to get the shots. They were later published in Arsenic Magazine.

We are always looking to move up to the next level and try something different. My make-up artist came up with this hot concept for our next shoot. After a brief conversation, we had our sights set and the mood board came together. We spent hours shopping for the right materials, colored lace, and selecting someone we felt would pull the look off. Recquel was our choice. She had a great look for this concept. We were pleased to get these images published in Pump Magazine.

Some find nudity odd, sacred and only to be viewed by a partner and some still feel odd even then... Model Tyler Porter finds her nudity to be her place of comfort. Wearing attire is her place of oddity. Clothing is viewed as extra, very extra! Although she is typically photographed nude, I wanted to capture her better than I ever seen. I love how the shots came out and that I was able to get it published on Arsenics Site. They have some serious work on their site and I am very grateful to have our creations selected to also be on their site. #dontstop

I was awaken around 1am from several photographers tagging me on FB and a call from a close friend and fellow photographer. They proceeded to ask, "are you online, have you seen what we tagged you in...) I went to my computer to find that a GWC (guy with a camera) named Chris Da'Shawn Harris loved my work so much, somehow it became his.
I appreciate when individuals enjoy my work, but this guy is a piece of crap.....clearly he isn't a professional, doesn't have the skills and or ability to take any professional images like I have so I guess stealing my work was the answer. He took the time to crop out my logo, place his own on my images and then have the audacity to write how hard he worked to take them! This is blatant disrespect to myself, all the models, make-up, hair-stylist, everyone involved to get these images and the photography community, but why try to explain that to someone as pathetic and talentless as Chris Da'Shawn Harris.
I guess Chris Da'Shawn Harris didn't realize the internet works outside of Cleveland, OH and though no one would find out he can only take club pictures with spray painted cars in the background. Chris Da'Shawn Harris, didn't realize he was going to get his own featured post on my Fanpage and my website. It isn't not often someone get recognition for being pathetic and talentless but here it is.
Below are some of the images he has been using of mine. I also included pictures of his face from his Instagram (those are not my images, I beleive those are selfies (Hey Chris Da'Shawn Harris that's called giving credit! Jump onboard.) ) I wanted to include his face so you don't waist time or money on this guy.
Here is his social media:

Jeans and a t-shirt is one of my favorite attires to see a lady in. It's one of the most basic outfits you can wear and still look fly as hell. If your into high-fashion, then jeans and a t-shirt can make a great base to start with, and if your into staying low key, it works well as a finishing line too. Most modeling agencies also photograph their models in this same attire, with little to no make-up so the client knows what to expect before a model even walks through the door.
Ms. Hudson graced me with her presents within the tree line, days before she left Atlanta, GA to finish school in Miami, FL. Fortunately we were able to work together and accomplish some beautiful work, this imagery spread being one of them. Hurry back Ms. Hudson!
