Photographer Steve Richard




I'm a big fan of fellow Canadian Steve Richard's work, so I was really excited to hear he'd updated his website with two new series of images. I wasn't disappointed. The series are entitled, "Red" and "The Surface". While I really enjoy them both, some of the images in "The Surface" are simply breath-taking. Don't miss this one.

Petite Model Isobella Jade

I was recently contacted by a rather remarkable young woman named Isobella Jade. Now those people who know me personally know that I have a pretty thick crust when it comes to stuff like this, but I have to say I was sincerely impressed by this woman's drive and determination. Despite being only 5'-3" Isobella dreams of a career as a model, and she pursues it relentlessly. Living out of a suitcase and existing on budget fast foot meals, she's authored a book written entirely at a public terminal at the SOHO Apple Store, maintains a website, and keeps up not one, but three blogs, all while spending each day hustling around New York trying to scare up paying gigs.

If you know any aspiring models, I'd recommend you share these links with them.

Brooks Ayola - Portrait photography for advertising and editorial.


It was a pleasant surprise to see a posting (below) from one time Contributing Editor Brooks Ayola. His own blog and professional photography career keep too busy to post here generally, so this is an occassion to note! Be sure and check out his site for some excellent photos and explanations of his lighting techniques.

Keith Allen Phillips, aka Lucky, invites models to roll, jump, or just lounge in his bed. Then he photographs them. Not a bad idea for a web site, huh?
