Pamela Mars – MUA/ Candace Lim
Pam has been one of the easiest models to shoot with. Even though she was a little under the weather (can’t tell from the shots) she performed wonderfully. She seems to effortlessly flow between poses. Once we established the concept I didn’t need to guide her at all. She knows what looks good on camera.

Sexy german cars always are fun to retouch. Shin shot the car at our 47 Booth studio. The background is a recreation of existing images from german audio ads. However since the requested crops were much larger I decided to re-draw it. Although it looks CGI it’s actually hand drawn.
I shot this as a technical exercise with a bit of humor. The trick was large even lighting from a Bron Para for the model, The intent was to use a smaller light for the hand, but the para worked just as well in that case. I used the same lighting set up for the hand on a smaller scale to match up the direction of the light.
This was a fun retouch. Shot by Todd for ‘Secrets from Your Sister’ bra company. The challenge here was shooting a nude model, and than retouching the chest so it looks like it is being supported by the illustrated bra. The weight distribution had to look very natural. This took surprisingly long, 10+ version of the image until we got the feel just right. This is one of 3 images I worked on.
This was an extra shot I took while shooting some catalog images for Beata Dirycz, an LA Based fashion designer. I love the symmetry of the shot, of course I did have to help out a bit in post to achieve this exact look. The neckline reminds me of the famous Nefertiti image. So now forever I associate the image with it.
