Honey, I’ve Got My Eye on You

Summer is here! Can’t wait to hit the beach….again!
But before the R & R is W & W… Work & Work!  😉
 Beach shoots are always one of the most difficult. Besides the heat and the blazing sun, the temptation of wanting to space out and allow your mind to drift off along with the soothing soundscape of your location is always one of the biggest challenges.

See? Who wouldn’t be tempted to space out on this?

Speaking of temptation…. Why, hello there!!!

This is John…. Or Hon as I was beginning to fondly call him behind his back haha!! He is now our favorite male model. We love him! In sync with summer with his SIZZLING good looks, he must be one of the nicest male models you can ever work with! I’ve worked with alot of male models, but it’s one thing to be gorgeous, but to have the nicest and a gentle personality to go with it….. This must be the start of the John the Male Model Fan Club! Haha!

This shot I shall call “DREAMBOAT”….
Who wouldn’t want to be in the same boat with John? I know Nina (High Life Magazine’s production coordinator and writer) wouldn’t mind, that’s for sure!…
 Same boat….
Or even much better in the same car…


It’s a belief that a nice car makes a man better looking. But not our Johnny! He doesn’t need the props for his already killer good looks!

Oh yeah, there was a female model too! 😉

Despite the jellyfish warning (at least there was a warning!), the calm waters and powdery sand provided a relaxing backdrop… Mixing business with pleasure! Thank you, Pico de Loro, for a wonderful time!
