Throwback Thursday: Guess Who?!

We are cracking up over this week's Throwback Thursday picture.  Clearly Pulse Management model Alex Wallace was born to be a model.  Look at her sassy pose from when she was little! No wonder she won our Online Model Search, she has been practicing since childhood.  We love getting glimpses into our models childhoods, before we knew them, and then being able to develop them into these amazing models.  Thanks for sharing your picture with us Alex, it is one of our favorites so far.

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Alex in Tinsel Tokyo Magazine

Happy Monday everyone!  To brighten your work week we are excited to share with you the pages from Tinsel Tokyo Magazine of Alexandra Wallace's editorial.  We shared with you a sneak peek a little while ago in this post, and now here are the tear sheets.  Alex was photographed by Rodney Ray, who also shot her in her Dolls Model Management shoot that she won as part of our first online model search. Because this is her first magazine editorial, and she was our first online search winner, we think this definitely qualifies as a Major Moment Monday!  This editorial looks amazing Alex, and we have a feeling its just the beginning of what we are going to see from you!

Sneak Peek of Alex Wallace in Tinsel Tokyo Magazine

You guys remember Alex Wallace right? She won our online model search.  She had her test shoot a couple months ago, and the photographer who shot her test shoot just used her in a photo shoot for Tinsel Tokyo Magazine.  Rodney Ray, the photographer of the shoot, sent us over a few sneak peeks from his camera, and let's just say we are more than excited to see the final images selected for the editorial! 

Alex sent us over a few pics of her from the shoot, and we are swooning over the wardrobe she got to wear, especially the dress in the bottom picture.  Talk about a major high fashion moment!  When I asked Alex about the shoot she said:

Working with Tinsel Tokyo was amazing! The clothes were magnificent and the people were awesome! It was great working with Rodney again, he's extremely talented and I learned so much, everyone working on the set deserves huge praise. They were all wonderful and so helpful. Overall, it was a great experience and I can't wait to see the photos in August's issue of Tinsel Tokyo! 

We can't wait to see the editorial when it is published as well! In the meantime enjoy these few pictures we do have.

  

Alex Wallace's Dolls Shoot

One of Alex's (AMAZING) test shoot photos

When we had our first ever online model search a few months ago, we had no idea what to expect.  We were thrilled when we had so many people enter, and even more so when we chose our winner, Alex Wallace.  This fresh faced 16 year old from Southern California, was everything we hoped our winner would be!  One part of her prize was a test shoot for her portfolio with Pulse Management's sister company, Dolls Model Management.  

Alex's shoot took place in Hollywood over the weekend, and we have only seen a few of the pictures (one is posted above), but they have exceeded our high expectations for this girl. Famed fashion photographer Rodney Ray took Alex's pictures and Seth Dobie from Tinsel Tokyo Magazine was the videographer. We are thrilled that Alex is our winner, because we know that we will be able to do amazing things with this model's career, just wait and see!

Alex Wallace for Nena and Co.

Do you all remember Alex? She won our very first online model search, as noted here.  If you follow @nenaandco on instagram, you may have recognized Alex on their posts today and yesterday.  Nena and Co is an amazing brand of bags, clothing, etc. and they are kind of a big deal on Instagram.  We love thinking that all of those Nena followers saw our girl Alex looking amazing modeling their latest bags.

Part of what Alex won in the model search is a portfolio shoot with Dolls Model Management, and it is happening this weekend.  Don't worry we will show you some behind the scenes pics of her shoot next week!
