Take it to the Street

I love working in my new studio Located in Long Island City, just outside of Manhattan. It has a chill vibe, 4 great studios to shoot in, 2 with cyc walls. Another amazing draw is the gritty exterior with it’s industrial landscape.

On a beautiful October day stylist Andre Austin and I shot a quick test with a beautiful new face from New York Model Management, Sammy Gardner. The talented Jonet Williamson provided hair and makeup.

Andre pulled a lot of the looks from DSquared2 and mixed it in with fashion elements to give a cool vibe.

Fresh Men’s Fashion Editorial – And Men Summer Issue

Published just in time for the inaugural New York Men’s Fashion Week!

Had a great time photographing male model Charlie Himmelstein from Request NY shooting this fun summer fashion editorial for And Men Magazine. Turns out Charlie grew up in my Brooklyn neighborhood. His personality comes through in the images.

Fashion stylist Andre Austin brought a cool selection of looks. Charlie was groomed by makeup artist and hair stylist Jackie Sanchez.

Behind the Scenes from a Catalog shoot

Once photography stops being fun I am going to quit.

Yesterday I had the pleasure shooting with Lindsay Phenix from Red Model Management NYC and Olga Kubrak from Major Models New York. It was a long day with lots of looks but we keep it light and have some fun in the studio on and off set. At one point Olga accused me of being a very serious photographer; my makeup artist Veronika Robova rolled her eyes. We are professionals, we take our work very seriously, but lets face it, this fashion photography and the object is to have fun making beautiful photos that sell clothing and a lifestyle.

One shoe on, one shoe off… Veronika confuses Olga!

Houston native Lindsay Phenix is inspired by the UT orange and flashes the “hook ’em horns” sign. Unfortunately the Longhorns are 3 and 5 this season. The bbq still kicks ass!

Men’s fashion editorial – And Men Magazine

Sharing a fashion editorial published in And Men Magazine. Long time collaborator Andre Austin styled the shoot which took place in my New York studio. Sean Harju from Soul Artist Management was the model.

And Men is a beautiful oversized magazine published in Australia twice a year and distributed worldwide. The quality of and standards for photography is incredibly high. It is always an honor to have work included in the book.

Andre Austin is a wonderful fashion stylist and a long time collaborator. He has a great aesthetic and has a great sense for styling both men and women. With men he takes classic looks but gives them a whimsical twist which makes you look twice.

I enjoy shooting men’s fashion. In many ways it is much easier than photographing women. Usually there is a lot less going on with hair and makeup, taking 20 minutes to prep and groom a guy. Also the guys just need to look like handsome, cool dudes, which they usually are anyway, we just dress them up a bit!
