Belated Post. Images from American Baby Magazine

Posted by Amy West on Wednesday, October 20, 2010, In : Photoshoots 
Apologies for the delay. Here are the images from the American Baby Magazine I booked back in January. At 8 months preggo I was feeling huge. Nothing like an editorial booking to make you feel back on your game. Surprise of all surprises, we managed to get the cover as well. Thank you to my agency in NYC, Expecting Models for the booking.









I am happy to say that now, 9 months later with a happy baby girl. I am down over 40 lbs. So happy to get back to my normal size again. I've been training wi...

Sneak Peek from this week's photoshoots

Posted by Amy West on Monday, August 17, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
A quick recap. 

Wednesday's trip to shoot with Disney was great! I was cast as a young mom and got to ride some fun rides with my new faux family, complete with Grandparents, a 4 year old daughter and a husband. The shoot was basically a stock shoot for Disney and its travel affiliates to use in brochures and promotional materials. No promises on ever finding those tears, but hopefully I'll get more opportunities to work with them in the future. It was surreal being there and reliving my child...

At the beginning of May my husband and I were hired to do what we do best, get married! Yes, we have become experts at getting married to eachother. It seems if you need people to pretend to get married, we are the go to couple. It started the first week we were dating. And from there, the rest is history. 

The shoot in May was a full day wedding reenactment for the local guild. Jacksonville boasts the most master photographers of any guild in any state in the US. So we had a huge photo celeb...

Erin Healy Fashion Shoot

Posted by Amy West on Tuesday, April 7, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
Last month I had the pleasure of modeling for my friend and designer Erin Healy. Her line is inspired by nature, so it came as no surprise when I found out we'd be shooting at the Botanical Gardens at the Jacksonville Zoo. The Zoo recently opened their Asian Gardens, so it was ripe for the shooting:) Photographer Jennifer Grissom did a great job and was a blast to work with. It had been a while since I modeled with my close friend Lauren, we had a great time working Erin's fabulous designs. A...

Bohemia

Posted by Amy West on Friday, March 27, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
Last week I had the honor of being photographed by a newcomer to town. Steve and his lighting tech Shawn, were so fun to work with and proved to be very professional and flexible to some of the ideas I had. Michelle Axtell provided the brilliant makeup. We always have fun working together and this was no exception. The concept was bohemian fashion. We chose to shoot under the 210 bridge. It proved to be a tricky location, but we found a few surprise options to work with in the area. 
Here are...

Multiple Personalities?

Posted by Amy West on Saturday, March 21, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
The thing I love about this industry is the freedom to discover all the many layers we as humans have to offer. Whether I'm the model, actress, or photographer I'm always intrigued by what lies beneath. The endless depths of the soul. And its just friggen fun to pretend to be someone else:) Let's just be honest;) lol So far, this week I've been a beautiful cyborg, a lost bohemian fashionista, an outlaw, and a frenchwoman. I have the best job ever!

Here are some fun shots I did with my good fri...

Taking a walk on the Wild Side

Posted by Amy West on Monday, March 16, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
Yesterday I had the pleasure of shooting with Jim Arbogast. Talented and well known stock photographer, he has shot for the likes of Coca Cola, Smoothie King, American Express, and Hard Rock just to name a few. It was a great honor to get to work with him, and I also helped with production, location scouting, and plotting the story line. My favorite part, though was being in front of the camera as usual:) For this one, my talented husband, David also joined in on the fun. We were shooting sti...

We are smack in the middle of Busy season now! This week I have 4 shoots! Yesterday I had the pleasure of shooting with amazing photographer, graphic artist, and stylist Natalie McCray, and amazing makeup Artist Kimtasha. The results were amazing! Something totally different for me!




She took advantage of the actress in me and got me out of the box from my normal modeling style. I loved it! They did a great job on my hair and the Gold Leafing was so cool!

New Classic Images

Posted by Amy West on Saturday, February 14, 2009, In : Photoshoots 
I had the great joy of working with our close friend and fellow photographer Jim Cox of Lomografieur this week. He has recently been delving back into his film roots and decided to do a shoot with me in the studio. It was great fun. I got to pick the wardrobe and opted for something that represented me. A little bit of glamour with a little bit of country. That is me to a T. Here are some of the great results! I think he captured me perfectly!
