A few months ago, I posted a few BTS videos of Steve Shaw, who shot Emily Ratajkowski in April. Steve Shaw is one inspiring England-based photographer who shoots mainly for Treat! Magazine and celebrities. The story of how he got into high-end fashion photography is quite fascinating. Steve started out as assistant at a large photography studio in Manchester. Long story shorts, Steve moved to California a few years later. He then got a job...

Brooklyn Decker is one of the most well-spoken and actress/model I’ve seen. Being a blonde that she is, I’m actually very impressed by how intelligent she sounds, and how goofy she is. Brooklyn is best known for her appearances in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues, including the cover of the 2010 issue. In addition to working for Victoria’s Secret for the 2010 “Swim” collection, I also noticed her in a TV...

Here’s to another good example video to show you that nice and expensive gear is not always a must for a quality photoshoot. Photographer Nick Fancher made a response video to Lee Morris‘ original fashion shoot with an iPhone 3GS. Back then, some people did argue with Lee’s video due to the fact that he used high-end studio lights, so a few other photographers have redone shoots with the same concept and less equipment....

I always enjoy some behind the scenes of a photo or video shoot, especially when they involve the angels from Victoria’s Secret. Check out their latest online commercial below that was shot in Floria by Michael Bay. I had to watch these videos twice. Once to check out the equipment, and once more to check out the models. In my opinion, the brunette version of Lindsay is a lot better than her blonde version, and Doutzen’s...

As a photographer, I’m all for using Photoshop and other tools to retouch an image or to get the perfect shot. However, it goes against my philosophy when a photographer or a publisher go over the line and create something that wasn’t even there completely. Take, for example, this image below of Elle Brazil’s cover for May 2012. When you first glance Coco Rocha’s photo, it’s likely that your reaction is going...

So you know that one girl Tasha, who played by the American model Emily Ratajkowski, from the show iCarly that started airing in 2007? Yeah, me neither, because I don’t watch Nickelodeon, nor do I live in the UK or America’s hat. Apparently, she’s all grown-up now, and she just recently did a photoshoot for Treats! Magazine. Like most of the shoots for this magazine we’ve seen HERE and HERE, these videos are VERY...

After doing a lookbook photoshoot earlier with my buddy Michael from fittedlife.com, I came home and couldn’t turn off my photographer mode. I ended up spending an hour watching these behind-the-scene videos done by the guys on fstoppers.com. I’ve actually seen most of these, but it’s always a great inspiration to watch this type videos. My all-time favorite video is still the first one that they shot in a penthouse in Las...

Some of you have probably seen the 3D pictures of Melanie Iglesias for World’s Most Beautiful 3D floating around the internet some time last year. The pictures were shot by Los Angeles-based photographer Nick Saglimbeni, whose work is so freaking amazing that you need to check it out NOW. Watch the video below to go behind the scenes with Nick Saglimbeni and see what goes on in his [hot] photoshoot. I wish the video went on explaining...

This year, I had the honor to shoot for Sacramento Fashion Week 2012 again. What a great show it was. Due to the full amount of tickets being sold out, there were only a handful of photographers who were picked to shoot for the event. We were split into two groups – one was to shoot for the Spring/Summer showcase, and one to shoot for the Fall/Winter showcase. I belonged to the latter group, which was on February 25th. I had the...
