1106: Brian Edwards

Tyra, for once, did not boast about working with this week's photographer a million years ago. She only discovered him because he recently took Jaslene's photographs for ZooZoom, an online fashion magazine worth checking out.

I will digress and point out how much Tyra really cares about her girls. I started watching season 4 of Australia's Next Top Model and that show cannot even compare. Tyra has really dedicated herself to finding a diverse (not just race) set of models who, though mostly bone-thin, show us that beauty comes in many different packages. Now, back on point . . .

Brian Edwards does have a nice portfolio online at brianedwardsphotography.com, and in addition to fashion editorials, he has also shot some ads for Ralph Lauren. Below are the photographs featured in the episode "Natural Beauty."







During the photoshoot, anything Brian might have said was edited out; Mr. Jay did most of the coaching. On the judges panel, we only heard Brian say the following:

Lauren Brie tended to be "posy." Sheena brought a lot of energy, but only at times; Brian advised her to try and keep the energy up the entire shoot. It was a real struggle for Brian to do Joslyn's shot.

His comments were mostly consistent with the other judges' impressions.
