Caroll 6-14-09

These photos were taken on the shadiest corner of Downtown I have ever had the privilege of standing on LOL But I am very happy with this images of Caroll, one of which was published in Estilo magazine in Honduras. The photo is in the October issue, so I am currently waiting for the magazine to reach the US so I can scan the tearsheet :)

Caroll and Alejandra 5-16-09

This session was the first of twelve that I am going to be shooting throughout the year for the Beautiful Garbage Photography 2010 Swimsuit Calendar. I'm trying to give a fashion twist to regular swimsuit modeling, because it is so easy to be cliche and overly sexy in swimwear...so the whole calendar is going to be of women paired up modeling their suits in a sexy, classy way in found spaces where one wouldn't expect to find women in swimsuits...

The first girls that shot for this concept were Caroll, a Beautiful Garbage newcomer, and Alejandra, whom I shot in March for the Eyes concept.

Here are some of my favorite shots from the set, though like last year's calendar, the absolute BEST photo from the shoot will only be available for viewing in the actual calendar (not even the models will see the best photo until the calendar is released) so this is just a preview of what's to come...
