MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Carson Bruner for Vogue Paris

Happy Major Moment Monday everyone!  For the second week in a row, we have a video of one of our models from Vogue.  This week we are sharing with you a video of Pulse Management discovery Carson Bruner from Vogue Paris.  For some reason I can't get the video to post on our blog, but click on the link below to see the video in its entirety. In the meantime enjoy these stills from the shoot.

Happy Birthday to Marc Jacobs!

As I hopped online to day it came to my attention that it is the birthday of the one and only, Marc Jacobs.  As a fashion lover, it is my duty to wish him a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Not only is Marc Jacobs one of the most talented fashion designers in the game right now, he is a fellow former Parsons student, so I feel like I have an extra kinship with him.

Marc Jacobs has helped bring legitimacy back to American fashion design, and his time at the helm of Louis Vuitton proved to even the most discerning fashionista that an American viewpoint and designer was just as good as his french counterpoints.

A few of our models have worked for Marc Jacobs throughout the years and each time, it has been a privilege to see our models working with the best of the best.  Hannah Holman was even cast solo in the first Daisy fragrance ads, which was huge for her career.

We wouldn't be surprised if few models from our latest crop of standouts are cast for work with Marc Jacobs soon, because right now we have the most promising group we have had in a long time.

Look Out New York!

Liz, Olivia, and Carson in NYC

Being a model is an interesting life, especially for a teenager.  If you're lucky you pack your bags and leave sometimes for months at a time to work in other cities and countries.  If you are in high school it can be hard to leave behind friends, sports teams, etc., and since most of your hometown friends aren't models it can feel a little bit lonely.  Thats why we encourage and love it when our models become friends. It is comforting to have an ally in a new city, and it also makes everything more fun.  It also is helpful to have someone else to talk to who understands the whole world of modeling, because they are trying to navigate it too.  We have seen a ton of pictures of Olivia and Liz together, and it makes us so happy to see two of our favorite models as best friends.  Olivia is from Colorado and Liz is from Minnesota, and luckily modeling (and Pulse Managment) brought these buddies together.  While in New York recently they met up with another Pulse Management discovery, Carson Bruner.  Carson has been modeling a little bit longer than these two, so they probably enjoyed learning the ropes from someone with more experience.  Keep taking these selfies girls, we love seeing how much fun you're having!

Olivia and Liz found a new friend!

Beautiful Birthday Girls!

Two of our models have celebrated birthdays recently, and we can't let anymore time pass by without wishing them a very happy birthday!

We discovered Carson Bruner in her native California, and she has been all over the world since we launched her career.  Carson was a finalist in the Elite Model Look competition, and she has since worked for companies like Chanel, Marc Jacobs, and Christian Dior to name a few.  Happy birthday Carson, we can't wait to see where this next year takes you!

Charlee Pilon celebrated her birthday last week, and we can't say enough good things about this girl.  We waited for her to finish high school before truly starting her in the industry, and she was worth the wait! Charlee has spent many of her months since graduating in New York and she is taking the fashion world by storm, click here to see some of her accomplishments.  The best is yet to come for this beauty and we are pleased as punch to be a part of your journey!

Carson and Armon for Tinsel Tokyo

We are so excited for the fall issue of Tinsel Tokyo Magazine to come out.  Not one, but two (!) of our models will be featured in a fall fashion editorial.  Carson Bruner and Armon Eastman sent us these pics from their shoot a week ago with Rodney Ray, and we have to say they leave us wanting to see the whole editorial.  Now the wait until the issue comes out is going to be torture.  In our humble opinion, you can't go wrong shooting two beautiful people in beautiful clothing, especially when it these two.  It looks like their summer modeling in Paris only made this dynamic duo even better!

Throwback Thursday: Guess Who?

For today's Throwback Thursday, we are not only keeping it in the Pulse Management family, we are keeping it in the Eastman family.  That cute little guy at the front of the picture is the one and only Armon Eastman!  Armon recently returned from a working in Paris, alongside another Pulse model, Carson Bruner.  He has been in pretty high demand since we signed him, making his dad Stacey Eastman (Pulse Mgmt President) proud!  Also pictured above is Alec Eastman, one of the six Eastman siblings.  Alec is currently in the Bio Chemical Engineering Program at the University of Michigan, which makes his dad just as proud!

If you are currently a Pulse Model and want to be one of our Throwback Thursday posts, please email your childhood picture to lisa@pulsemgmt.com.

Carson for Christian Dior

Carson Bruner is making us so proud in these behind the scenes pictures from her shoot with Dior!  If you aren't familiar with the House of Dior, please click here, so you can understand the magnitude of this shoot.  Carson has been in Paris for a couple of weeks, and so far so good! We can't wait to see the final product from this shoot, because in our opinion Carson and Dior are going to be an incredible combination.

 

Carson Spotted on Marc Jacobs' Instagram

As far as designers go, there are few as big as Marc Jacobs.  We were ecstatic when we saw our girl Carson Bruner on his international instagram.  Carson is showing a look from his Pre-Fall 2014 Collection and both she and the clothes look amazing! Congrats Carson, we know this isn't your first time working for Marc Jacobs, and we are sure this won't be your last time!

How Do You Say "Lucky" in French?

One of the major perks of working in the modeling industry is being able to introduce our models to places, people and cultures that they may not otherwise be exposed to.  Two of our favorite models, Carson Bruner and Armon Eastman jetted off to Paris this week and we are loving seeing their pictures.  Pulse Mgmt President (and Armon's Dad), Stacey Eastman, accompanied these two on their trip.  Carson and Armon will be busy working while in France, but it is fun to see these pictures of them, just being teenagers in one of the world's most amazing cities.  Keep posting pictures you guys, we love seeing them!

 

Bon Voyage!

The internet is abuzz with the news of the Kardashians taking over Paris, but we are far more interested in a different kind of Parisian take over. We are talking a fashion take over from these two, Armon Eastman and Carson Bruner.  Both take off soon for Paris and we are anxiously awaiting to see what work they book and even more anxious to see the stunning images from their French shoots.  I mean, look at these two!  I don't know if either one of them has ever taken a bad photo.  Don't worry everyone, we will keep you posted so you can keep up with Armon and Carson.

Carson for Urban Outfitters

We loved seeing Carson Bruner in this post on the Urban Outfitters blog.  Not only do she look perfectly luminous, but the accompanying blog article is great to read.  We've been in the business for a long time, but we still love to see how much a girl can transform with a different hair and makeup look.  Carson has been signed with us for a couple of years now, and we know that we have only scratched the surface so far with what this girl can do!

Carson on the Cover of Pink Revista Magazine

Do you guys remember this post, with the behind the scenes video of Carson Bruner's cover shoot for Pink Revista Magazine?  Well, the magazine is in, and we are loving seeing Carson smoldering at us from the COVER.  We have a feeling this is not the last time we will be seeing Carson on the cover of a Magazine.  Maybe she will be our 20th cover of Vogue?

Carson is Gearing Up for NYFW

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York is quickly approaching, and our girl Carson Bruner is busy prepping for it.  NYFW kicks off on February 6, and the entire schedule can be found here.  During Fashion Week in September last year, Carson booked some incredible shows including Victoria Beckham's eponymous line.  We heard that Victoria loved our Carson, and we don't blame her!  

Beckham wasn't the only celebrity that Carson rubbed shoulders with, we love this picture of her on a red carpet with Wiz Khalifa.  We wish Carson the best of luck this show season, and we can't wait to see what she has in store for us!

#pulsemgmtholidays: Some of Our Favorites

We absolutely loved seeing everyone's pictures on instagram under the #pulsemgmtholidays.  It was such a treat getting to see our models with their families and sharing their holiday pictures with us.  We think this will have to be an annual thing for us at Pulse, because we love seeing our models in their homes with their nearest and dearest.  This was the closest thing that we could get to spending the holidays with all of you.  While we can't post every picture that was posted, here are a few.  If you want to see all of them, check them out on Instagram.  (Also, are you following us yet on Instagram? If not, what are you waiting for? @pulsemgmt)

Amy Swenson wrote our name in the snow, we love that kind of dedication!

The Pulse Management Team
