Last Saturday was my last evening in Torino, which I spent with the Italian Wizard Dr. Marco Zanetti, Alex Maggi, and a few of their friends. We had a nice Christmas evening out walking around Europe's largest plaza which was decorated in lights, then off to a wine bar to have a Martini drink and some appetizers. I took a picture of the plate because the snacks were so appealing. One in particular was what I called Italian sushi: ricotta cheese with avocado centers wrapped with seaweed paper. Also there were salami, fociaccia cheese bread, a tuna spread with artichoke. So delicious!
Sneak peak from today's shoot with Playboy UK/DE/CZ photographer Emanuel Van Holsten. He will be publishing a glamour book featuring our work together over the past year. Coming Summer 2010.
At the Brussels airport now waiting for my Milan flight to board. Meetings with the Italian Wizard in Asti/Turin, shoot, and time with my muse until Sunday.
I love walking around the airport and through the Duty Free shops because they always have the best fashion/beauty advertisements. I take snapshots of these beautiful images with my iPhone so that I can study later. Here's a few new images out:
I'm in town to do study with Joel Dart as an assistant (coffee gopher, etc) on an full team test shoot for a major hair campaign. In addition to helping out, observing and learning from the photography standpoint, I am getting in front of the lens as well as I have done in the past with him.
Shot this a while ago with Emanuel Van Holsten, Playboy Italia photographer. Love his glamour style and we made the theme "fitness sexy". We are going to shoot again next week (Dec 2009).
EVH is selling stylized art prints of me on his site.
