    Since you moved to New York you might want to check out the works of this photographer that I knew back in the day: YULIA GORBACHENKO, her style has grown immensely! Also check out Fidel Berisha, he revolutionize the way USA pageant contestants are being shot. Goodluck!

  22. Darrell Johnson says

    Hey Jessica, I just wanted to recommend the book, "Male Super Models: The Men of Boss Models" it gave me some great ideas on how to create my style — for shooting male models. Now although, you shoot women pretty well, I feel you shoot the guys kinda the same way… I know you're trying to give the guys a soft look –but, it still comes across girlie. Maybe, try to have the guys emote that troubled teen that's miss understood… some like the ad you see "Lucky Blue Smith" do! Anyway, I just wanted give some creative advice. Take care and continued success!
