London Levi :: ANTM

As a photographer, I'll sometimes try to set up test shoots if I have a few days off... it's a good time to shoot for fun, try different styles, expiriment with new lighting setups... whatever.  Unfortunately, my experience is that 9 out of 10 test shoots never happen.  Somebody books a job, flakes out, bad weather... it could be anything.

Back in August, I met London Levi.  We met in a Walmart parking lot, spent a couple hours running around some abandoned warehouses in Fort Worth, TX, then pit-stopped at Sonic & called it a day.   I immediately knew it was the most succesful test shoot I'd had to date, and that this girl would go on to much bigger and better things.

Sure enough, last month I find out London is featured on this season of America's Next Top Model.  I believe the first episode aired this week, but am sure you can catch it online too.  Here are a few images from our shoot... definitely tune in and cheer her on.  She's a really neat girl.

That's a nice story, indeed.

I'm curious as to how that parking lot conversation went...

Eric,

I looked at your website as well and wow, have to say your body of work is very impressive. These photos of London are great but the rest of your work really impresses as well. She was really lucky to get a test shot from a professional like you.
