Nathan’s QA Questions in Jan 2010 DNA

I scanned this. hopefully this is large enough to read.

Nathan J. Owens @ Wilhelmina Models for COVER of DNA Magazine January 2010

Today the 22nd December, 2009, I found out my January 2010 DNA came out in Australia and New Zealand. The rest of the magazine will makes its way to major European states and finally to Canada and USA.

Borders, Barnes and Nobles, and mainstream newsstands will carry DNA Magazine.

This was special because not only I single handedly chose my muse to be the cover, but I influenced my editor to place Nathan as the first “color” COVER model of the magazine.

Change is good!

Portraits of Ashkan

Ashkan @ Wilhelmina LA

Here is Ashkan, my second Persian male model. Persian male models are very rare in LA! In addition to bodies, I absolutely love faces and portraits!

Kyler @ Wilhelmina LA [From June 18, 2008]

From my previous post, “At Work….” now you know where the following was taken. :-)

At the time, Kyler was with VUE Models and his agent Jaime Love sent Kyler over. I was inspired by the photographs of Emporio Armani and how they shoot their “BW” images. Here is my take on it.

Portrait of Nathan

On Thursday, my buddy Nate stopped by for the cover reshoot. He got hungry so I had to whipped up some food. I served him my 2 glasses yogurt lassi, 6 eggs scrambled w/ 4 yolks, 4 turkey sausages, and 4 slices of honey whole wheat bread! I am a nice host. I like serving people. =)

I also took this portrait of my muse.
