We have a shoot on Friday at Mack Sennett Studios and REALLY want to have this NEXT model, Wylie Hays. I guess we have a second hold which means we're in line. Hopefully that first hold releases tonight and we can grab her for our fashion story. Jeff Berlin is shooting. We have other options but I'm trying not to think about them. You know, keep the universe in check.
Wylie Hays from NEXT Models. She is amazing! My only concern is it says her shoe size is a 12. Hmmmm. The largest we've worked with is an 11 on Paris Hilton.
I finished editing the cover and fashion story with Katheryn Winnick today. I love the story. It has great energy and soul to the images. Marc Baptiste has a way of connecting with the models like nobody else. It's his enthusiasm and his passion for what he does that emerges through during the shoot. He's always upbeat, positive and full of life. That's Marc. We've become great friends over the last six or so years. Our first editorial shoot together was with Dita Von Teese. To this day it's one of my favorite shoots. Dita has been on the cover of Genlux twice, as has Jessica Alba. Our next cover is with Lydia Hearst whose also been on the cover of Genlux before—that one shot by BrakhaX2.
