REGULAR MODELS 2: ENRIQUE

Anyone who has visited my Model Mayhem page will have seen the first two images of ENRIQUE looking very moody! But Enrique is a real fun guy and we often experiment with totally out of the box ideas for different styles. It was Enrique who introduced me to Oxygen Model Agency, and at 20 he combines modelling with athletics where he is a keen track athlete; training and running quite a few times a week. And if that isn't enough he is just about to launch his own label in designer t shirts and clothes. Lets wish him success!
Here are a few of the many looks of ENRIQUE

NICK YOUNG

People often ask me.."What makes a model?" well NICK YOUNG is the answer.
Believe it or not this is only Nick's second ever shoot, and he is destined for great things if these images are anything to go by.
A very modest 20 year old, Nick is at Uni in Norwich, but is sure to be snapped up by a model agency very soon. He has the ability to look mean moody and powerful but can switch to gentle and vulnerable in an instant....but you'll have to wait for his next appearance to see his killer smile...and its worth waiting for!

SCOTT TAYLOR

SCOTT TAYLOR is fairly new to modelling and is already creating an impact..and at 6'4" it's quite an impact!
A personal trainer from Derby, Scott is thoroughly enjoying the limelight.." I love to look sexy in different styles.. from the soft to the aggressive. Its certainly been an eye opener to see how the images come out as I'm quite a shy person normally"
Well Scott you had better get used to being the centre of attention from now on...

PURA BELLEZA

Hot from Italy, 26 year old LUCA hails from Milan, the heart of the Italian Fashion Industry, and it was fashion that brought him to London five years ago. Realising a desire to work in front of the camera, Luca shows us what a great body he has and mixed with that indefinable Italian something his pictures really sizzle!
And he's a great guy too...maybe you can have everything!

Once in a while a model comes along who has that special something....
DOMINIC is that model.

Having the face of a fashion model and the body of a Greek god, 21 year old Dominic captures attention wherever he goes. Heavily into fitness, he trains four or five times a week at his local gym in Leeds.
His big ambition, he says, is to look up and see himself on a Billboard on Times Square.... any takers? Already plenty of people are looking up to his 6'1" frame.Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

ANTONIO

ANTONIO as his name implies is of Italian origin.
Fairly new to modelling he is a personal trainer who loves to keep his great shape by regular workouts and a healthy diet.
22 and 5'11" Antonio oozes Italian charm and style and is thoroughly enjoying being in the spotlight for the photo-shoots.
Living in Manchester, he is reliable and hard working, and if you need a personal trainer to give you that gym toned body you always wanted then Antonio's your man!

ERIC

ERIC is another stunning model from the Oxygen stable.
6'2" with long blonde hair, Eric is the epitome of the classic male model and when he started to talk about dressing up for halloween we decided to try a gothic fashion look. The result was fashion meets Van Helsing! A fun shoot with a great model.

FROM RUSSIA....WITH LOVE!

ALEXY is a 22 year old Russian but has lived in the UK for some while. He is a keen motorcyclist and can often be seen riding his powerful bike around London on his way to the gym or to another shoot.
Alexy is passionate about fitness and trains at the gym three or four times aweek. At home in Russia he was a gymnast and he intends to combine his gymnastic skills with his love of theatre by appearing onstage very soon...watch this space.

REGULAR MODELS

Over the next few weeks I'd like to introduce a few of my regular models, the first of which is HUGH.

Hugh is 23 and is a fashion and fitness model living near Oxford. He is 6'2" and very lean, with a personality and a great sense of humour. He keeps busy flying around Europe on various photoshoots and is in great demand ... but with his good looks and body its no real surprise!

The First..

Today was a first for me...my first test shoot for model agency Oxygen.
Must say I couldnt have wished for a nicer model to be my guinea pig!
Rick was calm and professional, a recent haircut meant he needed to update his port...
And the results? I'll let you decide........

WHO IS HOTSNAPZ?





























I love to create images which are eye catching, tell some sort of story and above all represent the model in a style I like to think is my own.


Hopefully this blog will reflect my journey through the many photo-sessions to come, with notes on styling and personal details about the models I work with. Yes they are people, not just pretty faces!

I'm based in London, and my style is a mix of fashion, physique and artistic nude.

I really enjoy working with my models to create ideas and themes which reflect a model's personality, and achieve photographs which are both fun to do and good to look at.
