I am in Seattle working on my skills photographing women in very brief costumes before I get out to Muscle Beach/Venice this weekend. This is the Slave Leia costume which is the bikini-style outfit worn by Princess Leia when she was captured by Jabba the Hutt in “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”. The costume was worn by actress Carrie Fisher. On display with an amazing display of Star Wars costumes at the EMP Museum. The craftsmanship and work that went into these costumes is just breathtaking.

Muscle Beach Labor Day 2014
Looking incredible and having fun! Natalie Lyle started out as my Makeup Artist on my photo shoots. Along the way she became very studied and professional in front of the camera. And Natalie also became hard working in the gym. Now I have the most amazing looking Makeup Artist imaginable. You can meet Natalie at Muscle Beach/Venice on Monday as she helps me on my photo shoots for the day. At 6ft tall, you will not miss her!
Some random photographs today with a Hasselblad medium format digital camera. One of the things I like about the Hasselblad is the accurate color reproduction. It is called “The Hasselblad Natural Color Solution (HNCS)”. This is a real important issue with me especially when it comes to skin tones. Just take a more studied look at all the photographs you see of people, especially on Facebook, and you will see how so many photographers let skin tones go orange in color. Even with the tanning products that are used in bodybuilding and fitness, people should not look orange in photographs, they should look tan. Skin tones and colors in general are more accurate in medium format digital and known to be very accurate in Hasselblad.

Very fun to be registered Hasselblad photographer! I have always been fascinated wit the history of Hasselblad and the incredible quality of their camera systems. How many of you remember that it was Hasselblad cameras that first went into Space and to the Moon!
