SUMMER RAYNE // VIDEO

Here is a fun behind the scenes video from my shoot with Summer Rayne Oakes @ Next Models NY. She is a great model, but also an activist who is doing a lot of big things in the city, particularly in the Green Market. She has worked very hard during her career to help promote being eco friendly in the fashion industry. She even joined forces with Payless shoes to put out an entire line of shoes called Zoe&Zac, that are all used with environment safe/recyclable materials.
The shoot was also styled with organic, eco friendly garments by the amazing Katra & Sarah from Love Illuminati, which is a well known and respectable boutique outside Philadelphia.

On a side note: My website is due to launch 11/1/09 - its about time, i know…lots of hard work going on behind the scenes and lots more shooting to do in the interim. So excited to share these fun fashion stories with you guys.

Love,
J.

CASTINGS // NEW WORK

Hey All!

Casted some lovely models for a beauty shoot and fashion story with Models, Leah Kelley @ Ford and Ashley Chontos @ Empire. Two beautiful blondes with their own unique styles. Leah is one of Fords most sought after faces and an ambassador for their plus sized talent aka "normal girls" ha. She is beautiful and I am excited to get some rad beauty shots. Ashley is an international girl, with reps all over europe and asia. She just got back from some editorial work this summer overseas, so we are exited to work with her! Keep your eyes peeled for sneak peek images and videos!

Have a great weekend!


Cheers,

éternel soleil // TRAILER

Trailer for fashion story, "éternel soleil" (eternal sunshine) featuring Bridget Ploof @ DirectNY Model Mgmt. Bridget was awesome! So laid back off camera and totally rocked it out in front. She was such a good sport dealing with the insane heat and humitdity that the day brought, but we survived lol I expect she'll be doing big stuff in the very near future; Vogue/Harper's Bazaar, for sure! ha

Once again, my team rocked it out and we are all happy with the shoot! Excited to share images, which are to come soon http://www.jrozier.com and http://www.johnrozier.blogpsot.com

Enjoy!


Cheers,

VINTAGE ROYALE // TRAILER

Here's a trailer for an editorial shoot I had the other day with actress/model Alyssa Campanella. The shoot went sooo well! It was seemingly lousy at first, raining and thundering out while we were prepping but as soon as we were ready, the skies cleared and it ended up being really sunny (and super hot/humid). Nonetheless, we succeeded and got some beautiful image. I was thankful for such a great team; Sarah Beaver, Wardrobe stylist and Kasey Golden, makeup artist/hairstylist - who were great sports dealing with the chaos of the location, which happens to be tourist spot/wedding venue, in which both events were going on the same day! Oi vey, but we survived :)

Also, look for Alyssa in an up-coming episode of Gossip Girl!

Enjoy...

MISS BRISS // VIDEO TRAILER

Hey all,

just shot a beautiful editorial with the beautiful, Brissi Brezze. You may have seen her spreads in magazines such as Nylon, Missbehave or Teen Vogue. Such a rad shoot! She really works well in front of the camera - love her movement and eye contact.

Here is the trailer for the shoot. Images to follow soon!

Enjoy!
