The much anticipated 2014 Inside Fitness Magazine Hot & Fit 100 issue is currently out on shelves. Throughout the year, most models that shoot with us throughout the year tell us that they want to shoot Hot & Fit submissions. For 2014, we had 96 models submissions by our team alone. There were over 1000 model submissions in total to the magazine, so you can imagine what a task it is to select the top 100. Congratulations to all those […]

Jill is looking better and better these days so keep an eye on her, she’s […]
At the start of every shoot, I like to ask the model what their goal of their shoot is. It is then my job to direct the shoot towards achieving my client’s goals. I would probably say that 99% of my clients tell me their goal is to be “published”. As much as I would love to get everyone I shoot published, it is just not possible. Magazines have different marketing needs and not everyone fits the “look” or “style” […]
Whether you are a first time model, or a pro in front of the lens, preparing for your photoshoot will make all the difference in the final package of your pictures. One of the most popular questions I get from a model when they book with me is “what should I do to prepare?“. Valid question of course, especially to someone new to a photoshoot. My goal as a photographer is to give you an overall “experience” during your shoot. […]

I had the pleasure of calling Leigh Brandt recently and letting her know that she had been chosen for the next cover for Women’s Health & Fitness Magazine. I had shot with Leigh Brandt and her husband, Dean Brandt at the studio mid-last year when she was in Toronto for the Toronto Pro Show to compete as an IFBB pro Bikini competitor. For those that know Leigh, she is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. She has a very kind demeanour, and […]
Danielle Fisher booked a photoshoot with me for the beginning of January, 2014, a time where most are rebounding off a Christmas and an end of year bad diet. She flew to Toronto and showed up at the studio and blew us away!!! Her physique was incredible and so was her sweet personality. Her Make Up & Hair was done by the amazing Lori Fabrizio of Two Chicks and Some Lipstick, which brought her up another notch! We took ALOT […]
Last month, I hosted a casting call for male and female fitness models for a commercial project that I couldn’t disclose. I requested “selfie” photos from submitting models to show what they looked like at that moment. I was so impressed with the amount of submissions I received in such a short time period.. and such fantastic physiques for what is usually an “off-season” time period. I submitted the pictures to the client and they made their selections. The chosen […]
