I met with a photographer friend of mine recently and we were both lamenting how long it takes, once you’ve done a job, before you can show it to anyone! So that’s been the case for me lately, lots of stuff in the pipeline but until I get the greenlight, I can’t share it.

One thing that has been greenlit is the new PBDorm catalogue I worked on a few months ago in LA and SF. PBDorm is the new big brother/sister catalog to PBTeen for young adults entering their college years. It was a blast to work on as always, and the pictures I’ve seen so far look great. Thus far I’ve only seen them on the website but the print catalog should be coming to stores any day now… I did the cover shoot as well as the content pages shoot. Makeup and hair by moi for all…

So for a two-hour drive outside of LA you can find yourself in a completely different environment. Pretty cool. :)

I had the pleasure of doing a shoot with fabulous photographer Dorian Caster up in the snowy mountains. And when I say snowy, I mean Big Bear apparently hasn’t had snowfall like this in over 4 years kind of snowy. You would have thought I was being shipped out to Siberia with the way I overreacted with how much I packed for the cold – LOL – but the efforts were well worth it. You can see more up on my page at the Ford site Tania @ Ford and of course it will be up on my site soon!

How is everyone doing? Well and busy, I hope! I know I certainly am. Since switching over to the Ford agency, I’ve been hustin’ and bustlin’ and doing some great work. Recent projects include work for Mervyn’s, WalMart and one of my fave recent shoots Roots Clothing out of Canada. I don’t know if my work is still up on the site or not since I shot their Spring looks (the guy and girl on the rocky beach. The shoots in the studio or in the forest were done by other artists), but anyway the pix are gorgeous and the crew was Fab! Here are a few samples from that shoot;

more to come…
