spontaneous poses are better than deeply contrived ones

the mags always love it when the stars make eye contact, kate fisher takes time out to demonstrate.

Wendell - it would have been awesome being there with you and I'm sorry I wasn't able to attend. You've captured some great shots. I see there are a few VERY familiar press photogs there. One you have included is David Morgan. I'm not sure if you are aware but he absolutely HATES having his own photo taken and if he knows you/anyone is about to take a shot of him he will do almost anything to avoid being photographed. There is also someone from the daily tele and then Mike from Big Australia.

Interesting collection of images matey - you've done well again! Thanks for sharing.

Hi Wendell,

great series, always enjoy your fashion shoots.

Certainly shows again that the most important thing is what's behind the viewfinder, Robert Rosen with his kit.

Some beautiful candid photos. I like your b&w patch work.

mate I said it before, I never thought fashion would be something I was interested in (if you saw my clothes you'd understand :D ), but I find myself always looking and your posts in awe. Your pics are always something special, and these are no different (except for the sexy red light).

Great series, post more!!!!
