Model: Kristi Wright |
#4 is a tie of the best image(s) of Helios. Ironically, the model is the same between the two images which we thought could never happen. I don’t even know if she knows but Kristi is the most published, most popular, most shared, blogged, referenced, worshipped and literally revered model we have ever worked with. Within one photo shoot alone, she and I had images published across at least four publications, a minimum of eight blogs and more websites than I care to count, none of which was yet our own. She made cover on at least one of our shoots on an extremely popular limited print edition special issue glamour magazine. By their own admittance, they received thousands of entries and Kristi was chosen from among them all from all over the world.
We attribute the popularity of these two images to their uniqueness. One has a innocent mischievousness about it while the other is a cropped acrobatic masterpiece of form and sexy gracefulness emphasizing the curves of her very fit physique.
She had no idea what I had planned for the day. The moment I saw her garment in person was the moment I knew I had to play around with shapes and contrast mixing both organic and synthetic for a sexy playful scape using curves and contrasting shapes. By most measures it was an instant sensation. Within hours of posting the picture on our photo blog it received thousands of hits, dozens of comments and shares and I’d received more than a dozen request for blog publishing rights. Everyone wanted to right about it or try to copy it. You might say that we were very proud of what we had accomplished using a little imagination.
Even now her closeup adorns the pages of several blogs after several bloggers asked for permission to have it as their header (something we don’t give or permit lightly or easily). We’ve had writers comment and even write about these images more than any other; not just comments or shout outs but real commentary on our technique and moreso on how exotically captivating Kristi is.
She is certainly the most daring model I’ve ever photographed. It’s ironic how shy and timid she can appear to be until it’s photo time. When the test strobes flashes she immediately goes bold and takes total control. She is so comfortable to be around and she brings such intense energy and skill. Glamour is her thing and we have yet to meet anyone that does it better.
