We are excited about the big things we have in store for Aaron in both the fashion and the surfing world. Don't worry we will keep you posted on everything as it happens.  Happy weekend everyone!

Happy Birthday Olivia!


I guess this is a good week for birthdays!  Today is Olivia Hamilton's 16th birthday, and we are sending all of the happiest birthday wishes her way.  Olivia is beautiful on the inside and out, and she is one of the most poised and remarkable 16 year olds we have had the pleasure of meeting. We loved her smart words in this post.  Happy birthday Olivia, lets make this year your best one yet!

New Liz Kennedy Video





You guys.  We are so proud of this video we made for our girl Liz Kennedy.  Not only does it showcase her flawless beauty, but it also gives you a behind the scenes look into how we launch a model, but why we do it.  As you can tell by our blog, we love our models and we love introducing new models into this crazy fashion world.  We shot this short film shortly before Liz left for her first international contract, a trip to Tokyo for a guaranteed $25,000.  Which is pretty unheard of for a brand new model. We hope you enjoy this video, and that it helps give you more insight into our company and our passion for the modeling industry. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Stacey!


Happiest of birthdays today to our fearless leader, Stacey Eastman.  Without him there would be no Pulse Management, and all of these models, whose careers we post about daily, who knows what they would all be up to.  Stacey is like a big brother to our whole team, and we love and consider him to be family.  We know our models feel the same way.  He is celebrating his birthday in Hawaii with his wife, Shayna, so we know he is having a great birthday! We hope this is a great year for you Stacey!

Michelle McCallum for Grazia Magazine


Pulse Management signed Michelle McCallum when she was 12 years old, and we aren't going to out her age, but we'll just say that she has been enjoying a successful modeling career ever since.  Check out BOTH of these editorials she recently did for Grazia Magazine, one of Italy's leading fashion mags. When we sign a model, we want her to have as long of a career as she is able to, and with Michelle looking like this, it doesn't look like her career is slowing down any time soon!

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Courtney Smerski for Nina Ricci


In honor of Paris Fashion Week, this week's MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY takes us back to 2008 when our girl Courtney Smerski, landed this amazing Nina Ricci advertising campaign.  Nina Ricci is a fashion house created in Paris, and had a resurgence when Olivier Theyskens was at the brand's helm starting in 2006.  Courtney starring in this campaign was huge, and it still remains one of our favorite high fashion advertisements to date.
