Gearing up for the Fourth of July

Gearing up for the fourth of July with the Family.  Looking for a long awaited time to rest and hide the phone.  Photo above is this issue of onetalentsource.com E-Magazine.  Model Ciera Samuels OTS #28820 is the feature model for this issue about marketing.

 

We are only days away from the SOS Event 5 in Surfside and we are busy making some cool props for this event.   We have some really unique models, location and props to add to this years big event.  For those that have not registered yet as a photographer, please do so before we close the event.  We have makeup artists coming early to work on models in advance of the shoot starting.

We are kicking off our second Wet n Wild workshop for July 31st with three amazing models and only six photographers.  We will shoot the models in a private pool with fog, smoke, gel lights, reflecting pond and outdoor showers.  It is Wet and Wild with models in some Haute Couture Makeup.
The first one we did some color gel lights in the garden tub and the photos looked really cool, but this time we are bring in the shower outside.  Here is a photo from the first Wet n Wild at the beginning of the month.  Photo below is Model Annicia Davis OTS #26717 with Makeup Artist Alicia Guevara. 
A few weeks ago we did our second paper design workshop at the cotton gin.  We had 14 photographers and eight amazing models at it.  It was Hot and Haute to say the least.  We would have to say that dispite the hot temperatures the photos were amazing.  Here is one from that event with Model Kimmi Hunter a long time model on OTS # 18245. 
We hope everyone has a great fourth of July as we celebrate with our families and friends.  Be safe and be happy in no matter what you do.  I leave you with a photo from our kids Sweet n Sassy Runway workshop of Photographers Chris Fords oldest daughter Megan age 24.  lol

Fashion Prejudice Returns: Female 40 Somethings and Can’t Find Anything to Wear. Black Models Out of Work

“So many women say they don’t want to dress like their mothers. But I don’t want to dress like my daughter. And why is NO ONE putting middle-aged women in their campaigns? Average age of a Burberry customer? Fifty-three. Age of the face in their ads? 19-year-old Emma Watson.” [Times]

Do read the article in the Times.  It details one woman’s struggle to bring fashionable and fine clothing to women in forgotten age ranges.  [Times]

Fashion “prejudice” has returned in other areas as well extending from from the runway to the retail outlets.  CNN TV did a spot 6/18 about the struggle of black models.  If you thought that struggle was finished, think gain. Famous black models  discussed the current situation  and outlined the special program, The Color of Beauty.

‘The Color of Beauty’ is a documentary that looks at what many consider institutionalized racism in the fashion industry. Black models struggle to find work. The first African-American to grace the cover of Vogue magazine supermodel Beverly Johnson and model/actor Renauld White join Tony Harris to discuss the documentary. The definition of beauty and fashion is what we’re talking about in our ‘What Matters’ segment.

Art of Sophistication

Images of Beautiful Belles Sedene Blake& Ayan Elmi are captured by Photographer Greg Lotus for Vogue Italia June 2010 Issue.

On my lovely Friday afternoon, I decided to take a look at my favorite fashion blog The Fashion Bomb Daily. In one of their blog articles, I saw these immaculate beauty shots of models Sedene Blake (New York Model Management) and Ayan Elmi (Next Modeling) that was photographed by Greg Lotus for Vogue Italia June 2010. I imagine the two Belles vacationing at a rich resort such as Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard where the high African American society vacationed. They had on their elegant hats, swimsuits that  fit their bodies like a glove, dark skin glistening amongst the rays of the summer sunlight, and drink fine expensive champagne in their privileged lives. Vogue Italia never fails to capture models of different ethnic backgrounds beautifully and with a fine art of sophistication. It looks like I need to start a collection. Check out more pictures of Seden Blake and Ayan Elmi. Read the rest of this page »

And now for some new work…

Summer… a great time to create new work.  Starting this weekend I’ll be less on the computer and more in the world… new fine art abstractions, models, and outtakes from jobs.

To all my Women of Color

who don’t fit a fashion model’s size, did I mention you were born beautiful. You should thank the Lord you don’t need the sun‘s harsh rays for extra melanin, collagen and botox injections, breast or ass implants, illogical and unnatural means to beautify what is within or to enhance what just is… You just are timeless, ageless, divine. Your seed carries history, originality, and the coming free. So smile those bee stung lips, walk that rhythmic gait, and let your soul shine for out of your darkness there is a light that shines
