Skin Inc. June 2008 Cover Shot !

Here is our newest cover for Skin Inc. Magazine June 2008 issue.

One Happy Island

Go See Do… on Island Time… Aruba is, as stated on each and every car or truck’s license plate, One Happy Island.

A fantastic voyage to Aruba:

This was my first trip on assignment without Iris and this will be my first solo entry on the blog… (As usual, she will be editing it down removing my profanity lol ). The lefty speaks, we are not going to plug any one specific company such as De Palm Tours nor are we going to provide their website http://www.depalm.com, BUT I will say this… how can you go wrong with tour guides that can speak three languages or more… that make you laugh all day, and that can provide you with great stories as you are taken to such great site seeing places as the natural pool in either jeeps or on atvs, or to the old gold mine or california lighthouse… ok ok ok ...enough about it. LoL..

Go See Do….. on Island Time… Aruba is one HAPPY place !

Kids

The subject of kids doesn't come up often with us whether for work or personally, however, kids are great to shoot because they are so open and honest in front of the camera.... not like most people that put on a persona of their choosing when you shoot them. Even though the majority of the time we don't work with kids, sometimes we come across some that are so amazing that we have to capture their essence on film.

They're a lot of fun and full of friendly smiles... here are examples of some of those great pint-sized people we've encountered along the way.

NYC Rockette ~ Miss Corinne

While in NY Steve met a really cool and talented dancer named Corinne. She has been dancing for the Rockettes for over 6 years now, and loves what she does as you can see from the images... she's sweet, talented, full of life and energy, and cute as a button! Enjoy the mini series of Corinne.

Sunset Jamaica Grande & Sunset at the Palms

While on assignment working at Sunset Jamaica Grande in Ocho Rios & Sunset at the Palms in Negril we got to meet some pretty cool people. Barbara Lulich, the Marketing Director at the Sunset, was one amazing woman. She is a strong, statuesque, blond woman that has many stories of the experiences she's had over the years she's spent living and working in Jamaica, and is well respected by her peers. They are a team that is more like a close knit family at The Sunset. We worked closely with them throughout the 13 days we were there. The schedule was a bit grueling... we had full 18 hour days with 6 models and two locations. It wasn't one of our easier assignments, but it was definitely quite an experience. We enjoyed it.. Steve in particular.. it seemed to be more his speed.

Sunset at the Palms in Negril was my favorite.. it's so beautiful there.. the sunsets, the treehouse style villas we stayed in, and the lush tropical atmosphere... really a tranquil little oasis. If you're headed to the west coast of Jamaica.. it's highly recommended.

hmmmmm hmmm YUMMY !!!

One of our favorite things in the world to shoot is FOOD! Most of the time, the chefs we work with are super nice and let us taste test the goods after we shoot it (if it's edible! Some of the foods we shoot are for photo purposes only ~ not fully cooked, sprayed to keep from moving/falling apart, not all real/edible parts, etc.)and in those cases, understandably & unfortunately, we cannot try them........

Here's some tasty treats to get you salivating...

Viva Mexico !!

This is one of the reasons we love our job.. from the beauty of the place, to the extremely warm and friendly staff, and an assignment that was complication-free.... We entirely LOVED working in Cancun Mexico shooting at Le Meridien Resort & Spa. We got some of the most amazing images from this trip!

Still life when not traveling.....

It might not be as exciting as travel...but it beats waiting in line and dealing with security at the airport...

on occasion, we do shoot products.

here are some samples..
