Aby-Jo

Model: Aby-Jo from www.bodynsoulmodels.com Model Representation: Dore Models Did this studio shot for Aby-Jo' s portfolio. She is not only Suriname's Top Fashion Model, but also a very dear friend. The image was also recently used in a newspaper article featuring her in De Ware Tijd, Suriname's largest daily newspaper. The article was named, Aby-Jo, Talented, Intelligent and Beautiful but I can assure that the tile could have included much more beautiful words about Aby. Sensitive, Visionary, Creative and similar wordings come to mind. A woman hat impresses and sure will cntinue to do so till the end of times, but first and foremost a very dear friend who I love to work with in front of my camera.

All Aboard

Pura Beleza

Model Credit: Carol Caldeira Model Representation: Doré Models The first time I shot Carol was during the 2005 Atelier Dore Jewelry Fashion show. Now she is back in front of my camera. While we only tested a bit during the shoot, she inspired my creativity and I decided to open the gates. Beautiful model model, even more beautiful personality, such a wonderful person, we'll be shooting a lot more, but this shot will give you a glimpse of where my creativity is taking me. And now that my vcreative block is certainly gone for a while, I have no problem also shooting what I used to do, I now know which direction to add to my portfolio, there should be a lot of surprises coming your way. Enjoy...

Big Cats

Model Credit: Averyn Model Representative: Doré Models Makeup: Gillian Calor Assistance: Fausto Fraser Sometimes Big Cats hang out in trees. Relaxing or looking for prey from afar? The safest place to watch them remains the Catwalk, although good eyes can spot them on the streets. Even if they try to camouflage themselves among the Household Kittens. There is no question to the mind of the photographer when he meets eye in eye with a Big Cat, instant recognition, and if he is good with the camera, he will catch a wonderful Big Cat playing in the wild. Like the Leopard, I caught in a tree here.

Dominique

Model Credit: Dominique from www.bodynsoulmodels.com I have been away from SC for more than a month. Have been quite busy, but also had a major creative block. I insisted on shooting myself through the block and had a great shoot with Dominique. It started a new period for me. I am preparing a few very interesting shoots, with some of Surinames finest models, but the block and the shoot with Dominique and a visit from 3 new Godsend friends, helped me to be more focused and more determined than ever before. Just want to share the beautiful Dominique with you, before starting my series of new work. And I want to thank Suby and Sinem as well for helping me realize that I was at crossroads, and of course all of SC for being patient with me. I will answer all the comments over he next few days. How could I almost forget, Thank you very much Dominique, you will never realize how important you have been and how special you are!!!

Big Cats

Model Credit: Carol Caldeira Model Representation: Doré Models Make-up: Gillian Calor Assistance: Fausto Fraser Big Cats can sometimes be spotted in the wild. While they might have similarities to your Household Kitten, these are an entire different species!! Beware these are not TOY cats. Be careful when approaching. Luckily we can sometimes see them in a safer environment But even on the Catwalk, the Queen of Cats, can devour you in a snap.
