A MODELING MUST READ

If you are one of our models, you need to read this article we found on Beauty Look Magazine.  If you want to be a model, you need to read it. I don't mean to be bossy, but this one article summed up what we have been telling our models for years.  No one can make or break your career like you can!  You tell us that you want to be a model, by following this article you prove to us that you want to be one. It is a pretty short article, but it is definitely worth your time to read it. You can thank us later, and have a great weekend everyone!

TBT: Then and Now: Erin Cummins

Erin Cummin's first Polaroids

We love looking at the Throwback Thursday: Then and Now pictures of our models. When we scout our models we see the potential in them, but their future success depends a lot on them.  We can place them with the best agencies in the world, but if they do not want to go, or if they are not camera-ready when the opportunities arise, or don't treat their agencies or the artists their work with well, they can kill their own careers before they start. So we love when we get a chance to reflect on our models' success.

We discovered Erin Cummins in her home state of Washington, and the rest is history!  She worked New York Fashion Week, she's worked in Miami, Asia, and in Europe.  We are looking forward to seeing what she has in store next.  In our opinion it should be Victoria's Secret or Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

Sophia Skloss for La Totalite

How pretty are these images of our girl Sophia Skloss?  They are from the 2014 Fall/Winter cookbook for La Totalite.  These pictures are from when Sophia was working in Asia, as we documented in these posts.  We can't say enough how valuable spending time working in Asia has been for so many of our models.  It helps them build their confidence and make some money before they try to work in the other major markets.  Sophia spent her time in Tokyo well, and we are working hard to continue building the momentum she gained while over there.  Stay tuned everyone, we are expecting to see great things from this model.

Aaron Jessee is Living the Good Life

As everyone else is getting settled after the holiday weekend most of us are facing the colder temperatures and harsh weather of winter.  Not Pulse Management Action Sports' team member Aaron Jessee though.  Aaron is living the good life in Hawaii surfing and skating to his heart's content.  Aaron also gets to do cool things like this and this.  I guess the moral of this story is that its a good day to be Aaron Jessee, especially in the winter!

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Ali and Hye for Vogue Paris

For today's Major Moment Monday, we are going back to April of 2008.  Vogue Paris did an editorial on the top models in the industry and it was photographed by none other than Scott Schulman, the Sartorialist himself!  The models selected for this editorial, are still some of the biggest names in the modeling world including: Angela Lindvall, Coco Rocha, Doutzen Kroes, Natasha Poly, Raquel Zimmerman, and Sasha Pivovarova.  Not one but TWO Pulse Management discoveries were included, Ali Stephens and Hye Park. We discovered both Ali and Hye in Salt Lake City, Utah and launched their careers.  Its pretty amazing to think these two models from Utah, ended up being included in an editorial for Vogue Paris, with the top models in the entire world.  If that's not major, I don't know what is.
