As mentioned in my post yesterday, C-Heads is a fashion and cultural magazine hailing from Vienna.  In their Fall issue, I was fortunate to have two of my series published in it.  The first is “The Beachcomber*” and it features model Tia Spowart from NEXT Canada.  The other is titled “An Unknowing World.”  For this shoot, I worked with NEXT Canada’s Lauren Innes, stylist Alleeneda Thammavong and makeup artist Livia Metcalf.  The location was really inspiring and I can’t wait to shoot there again when the right project comes along.

BTW, here’s a couple of behind the scenes photos.  Look who came out to play.  Peggy graced us with her presence on the day.

Back in July when the sun was beaming and the weather was heating up Vancouver, make-up artist Eman Aziz and stlyist Janet Li and I had the pleasure of shooting with Tia from NEXT Canada.  It was the first time I shot with Tia and hopefully it won’t be the last.  I really enjoyed shooting with her not only because she’s such a professional, but she’s also so insightful and wise.

Our series “The Beachcomber*” was recently featured in C-Heads.  The online fashion and cultural magazine hails from Vienna, Austria.  To view the full series surf over to my website www.benjaminkwanphoto.com or visit C-Heads.

Back in April makeup artist Eman Aziz, stylist Janet Li and I shot with NEXT Canada’s Alex.  The series was shot in a local community garden a stone’s throw from where I live.

Alex is one of my favourite models. Not only is she a great model, but she’s an amazing person.  In recent months she’s graced the pages of many publications. Most recently she can be seen in Z!NK Canada with the fabulous Britt Schafer of NEXT and in my “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” series featured in South Africa’s CHEW Magazine.

Here are some behind the scenes pictures from the shoot.  We shot this  way back in chilly April so while we all were bundled up in our warm coats and sweaters, Alex had to wear barely there bikinis, swim suits, body suits, shorts, skirts etc.

The full series can be found on my site www.benjaminkwanphoto.com and in the current issue of CHEW Magazine.

A little while back I shot NEXT Canada’s new face Adria with Forte Rep’s makeup artist, Eman Aziz and stylist Alleeneda Thammavong.

Adria’s got an interesting back story.  A few months ago, Adria was scouted by Corey from NEXT Canada while shopping in Metrotown.  Weird thing is, a year earlier Adria’s older sister was also approached by Corey while shopping downtown, but she was not interested in pursuing modeling.  No one realised the connection.  Only afterwards did Adria and her mum realise it was also Corey who tried to scout her older sister a year earlier.  Talk about a weird coincidence.
