Sometime less is more and Arsenic Magazine agreed!!! I worked with Model Hilliary Rori and Make-Up Artist Hana Ali to create these sexy snapshots. Hilliary's electric body and posing is hard to miss and easy to want in front of your camera... I love that I was able to capture her and get our images published on our first day together in Arsenic Magazine.

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.

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've learned over time not to box myself into one area or another, so I was stoked to do an Avant Garde shoot with model Crystal Gonzalez. After discussing our ideas and overall concept, we got to work. Allen Jones was on make-up and Maritza Barraza was on hair. Although Crystal Gonzalez is only 16, she has recently become a model to work with in the Atlanta, GA area and beyond. She has been featured in numerous magazines and publications and even walked in Paris during fashion week. Now it was my turn to capture her. Exactly one month from the day I shot her, our images were published. What makes it even more exciting, is that our work is published in Ellements Magazines, which is one of the magazines I had my sights on. #dontstop

On a blazing hot summer day, why not cool off basking in a beautiful body of water? One of my favorite places to shoot is in some form of water. Anyone can use a studio with controlled lighting and air-conditioning, but who is willing to go into a river that’s about 45 degrees? Our model was one of the few that was willing to. She has the ability to make anything look pretty simple. With a background in dance and theater, her posing, poise and presence is impeccable. Allen, our Make-Up artist did a phenomenal job insuring the makeup was natural and blended well, considering she posed topless. This lineup of imagery, showcasing our model was published in Uncovered Magazine. The first time I saw their magazine, I knew I had to get in there. (Challenge Accepted) The work they select for their magazine and site is beautiful, tasteful, and timeless. Well we did it and I have all intentions of doing it again. #dontstop

Ms. Jean-Baptiste nailed it. Seriously, nailed it. I'm happy I was able to get her published into Pump Magazine which happens to be her first magazine publication. I'm sure she had no clue she would later be able to purchase a magazine with her beautiful face in print. I was determine to get this editorial published. In all reality, I didn't have to do to much work. The teams collective work spoke for itself. I was even greeted with a very pleasant email explaining their desire to publish them. This shoot started around 2am, after we had just finished another shoot in downtown Atlanta. Long hours and hard work never fail. Let's see what we can acomplish next! #dontstop
