Liz Kennedy for Blank NYC

I think the crew at Blank NYC was on to something when they used Liz Kennedy in their Spring 2015 look book.  Looking through these pictures we can't help but think that Liz embodies the effortlessly cool vibe that the brand is all about, and we want to buy every piece in the collection!  Click here to see all of the fantastic pictures of Liz, and we dare you to not want to buy at least a couple of items.  Liz looks as amazing as ever, and we love seeing her get more comfortable in front of the camera.  Her pictures have always been beautiful, but her latest work we're seeing a little bit more attitude from her (which is just good modeling, because she is as sweet as they come!), and we're into it Liz!

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.

Hannah Holman's New Polaroids

We just saw some of Hannah Holman's latest polaroids, and they are absolutely flawless.  We haven't mentioned polaroids in awhile, and if you don't know what they are or why they are important, please click HERE.  What we love about Polaroids is they really put the model (not hair and makeup or the wardrobe) front and center. 

Hannah has been modeling since we discovered her at the mall in Utah years ago, and she has one of the most successful careers of any of the models we have launched.  Looking at these polaroids you can see why she's been so successful, she is stunning! It took awhile to get Hannah's career going, but once she started gaining some momentum, there was not slowing her down.

Want to Join the Pulse Management Team?

Part of the Pulse Management team in Malibu, CA

Hey readers, have you ever read our blog and thought, I want to be a part of THAT?  Now is your chance.  We are looking for new scouts to help us discover the next Pulse Management superstars. Being a scout for us is a pretty sweet gig (if we may say so ourselves).  Basically you get to go to the biggest concerts, festivals and sporting events of your choice, to be on the look out for future models.  You get to choose when you work, where you work, and you work as an independent contractor so taxes don't come out of your paycheck.  You will get paid up to $300 per model that signs with us.

Still not convinced?  There's more. Our top scouts get all expenses paid to travel to fashion shows and events around the world.

If you want to know a little bit more about our current scouts you can check out posts about them here.

To find out more about scouting with us or to submit a resume, please email lisa@pulsemgmt.com.

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Olivia and Nichole on MODELS.COM

We've introduced you all to models.com before, but just in case you are new to our blog, we'll reiterate the importance of the site.  Models.com, is basically the last word when it comes to the modeling industry, their model features and rankings are arguably the most valid in the industry.  They have a feature on the front page of their site right now called the Models.com Go Sees, where they invited some of the industry's rising stars, along with some already established models to come to their office for a quick photo for the feature.  TWO models discovered by Pulse Management were included in this week's installment of Go Sees, Olivia Hamilton and Nichole Martinez.  When we scouted Olivia and Nichole we knew they had the potential to be amazing models, and it is nice to see that we're not the only ones that think that! Congrats girls, this is MAJOR!

NYFW: Alisha Judge for Charlotte Ronson

New York Fashion Week this past February was the best we have ever had as a model management company.  I can't believe that we are still getting pictures in to update you all with.  This picture is of Alisha Judge, walking in the Charlotte Ronson Fall 2015 Ready-to-Wear show.  The looks featured in this show are almost as beautiful as Alisha herself.  By our latest count Alisha was in 11 shows or presentations over NYFW, which is amazing.  We hope right now Alisha is enjoying a much needed vacation!

Gia Whited on Her First Cover!

Do you all remember Gia?  She is one of our newer models, and she just experienced one of the more exciting things that happens to any model, she landed her first magazine cover.  Gia (and her hair) look amazing on the cover of American Salon magazine.  Way to go Gia, we have a feeling this is just the first of many magazine covers for you!

Liz Kennedy for Design Scene Magazine

I don't know who is feeling more fortunate that we scouted Liz Kennedy, us or her.  When we found Liz at a concert in Minnesota, we knew that if she signed with we would be able to develop and manage her into an incredible model.  She definitely is proving us right, and we are so grateful for her trust in us with her career.  On Liz's side, instead of spending another winter in Minnesota, she has spent the past few months traveling the world for photoshoots and runway shows, as we've detailed here.  I'd say this is definitely a mutually beneficial relationship.

These pictures are from Liz's editorial for Design Scene Magazine's February 2015 issue.  This editorial was shot in Tuscany, by Fabrizio Scarpa. Liz looks so stunning I can barely notice the gorgeous Tuscan setting, and that's saying something!

Model Life: Olivia Hamilton

We use this blog to keep you all updated on the exciting jobs that our models book, but we wanted to do a post to show you that our models have lives outside of the modeling industry too.  Olivia Hamilton, who we discovered at the grocery store in Colorado, is a talented ballerina.  Her world revolved around ballet when we started working with her.  We love that Olivia was willing to give modeling a try, despite her passion for ballet.  She may not dance as much as she used too, but she still takes classes and her ballet has definitely benefitted her modeling.  We love when our models are well rounded, and have interests outside of modeling, because it helps them keep things in perspective.  We are so amazed at how hard-working and professional Olivia is for her age, and we definitely think that her ballet career taught her these things.

Stacey Eastman, Pulse Management President, said the following about Olivia:

"My girls amaze me!!!! Pulse Mgmt's Olivia Hamilton is the dream client because she's so talented in so many areas of life. Speaks volumes about her mom!!!!! Much love."

We also know that our models are only as good as the parental support they have, and we appreciate each and every one of our models' parents for trusting their child's career with us. It is a huge responsibility and we don't take it lightly!

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Malia Murphey for Billabong

Happy Monday everyone!  I figure there is no better way to fight off the Monday blues than with some gorgeous beach shots of our model, Malia Murphey.  These pics are all from a shoot she did recently with Billabong.  In fact Malia is all over the Billabong Women's instagram page, and we love it!  For most models working with a company like Billabong is huge, but for a Hawaiian like Malia, it definitely qualifies as major.

 

Meagan Lee for Guess

We were so excited to see this picture pop up on the official instagram for Guess Jeans.  Pulse Management model, Meagan Lee, looks perfect perched up on that convertible. We can't wait to see the rest of the pictures from this shoot, because Meagan is a perfect fit for this iconic brand.  If you see one of our models while you are checking your instagram feed, feel free to tag us (@pulsemgmt) in the picture, just in case we missed it!

Liz Kennedy for ODDA Magazine

Last week we posted about Liz Kennedy's editorial in French Elle Magazine, this week we have another killer editorial to share with you.  These pictures are from ODDA Magazine, and we can't get enough of our girl Liz! To put things into perspective, we scouted Liz almost two years ago at a concert in Minnesota.  Now she is traveling the world, and looking as fierce as ever in some of the biggest and most respected fashion magazines. She definitely has put a lot of effort and sacrifices into her career, and it is paying off.  Liz is quickly making a name for herself in the world of modeling, and we couldn't be more proud of her.
