And She's Off!

Ashland Wendlandt, one of our newer models, just started her journey in Japan.  We sent her there on a contract that will both help her build her book, and gain a lot of experience in front of the camera.  Her mom, Jen, is along for the adventure.  We are looking forward to seeing a lot more pictures of Ashland's time in Tokyo, and we will keep you updated on her modeling out there.

Corey Scott and Ashley Graves in Hollywood

It is quite possible that the only thing better than getting back incredible photos of one of your models, is getting back incredible photos of TWO of your models.  This test shoot of Corey Scott and Ashley Graves on the California Coast is pretty much perfect.  They simultaneously look like candids of the most beautiful couple ever, but also like movie stills.  Great job guys, these turned out amazingly.

Tyson Bowerbank for Zumiez

Tyson Bowerbank is one of our Action Sports athletes and we are stoked to see his new ad for Zumiez.  Tyson was one of the top three finalists in last years Zumiez Best Foot Forward skate competition, and his video is definitely worth checking out if you haven't seen it already.  You can see the video of Tyson, and the other top three finalists HERE.  Tyson is one of the most talented skateboarders we have ever seen and we are proud to have him as a part of our Pulse Management Action Sports team.

Hannah Holman for Flair Germany

How stunning is the setting for Hannah Holman's editorial for Flair Magazine?  Flair is a German fashion magazine, and we love this editorial shot by Kerry Dean. We love seeing Hannah, who we discovered in a small town in Utah, in this editorial for a German magazine, that looks like it was shot on another planet.  We launched Hannah's career years ago, and we love that she is still working and booking major jobs.  In fact she just shot an editorial for Marie Claire in Berlin a few days ago.  We'll be sure to share it with you when it's published.

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Liz Kennedy for ODDA Magazine

We can't get enough of Liz Kennedy in this editorial for ODDA Magazine.  The editorial is titled "This Woman's Work" and it showcases looks from the 2015 Womenswear Collections. In my opinion this editorial is successful because the photographer, Jacob Sadrak, kept the set simple so the clothing and Liz are the real standouts.  Sometimes the photos that look simple are the hardest to shoot successfully because you can't hide lack of talent behind gimmicks and props.  The pictures have to be staged and lit well, and the model has to be confident and comfortable enough to use just herself to showcase the clothing.  Liz has really come so far since we discovered her, and we are so proud to see the images she is turning out these days, because she is becoming an insanely talented model.
