EXPN Shoot with Vanessa Florentino
Between building websites, designing wedding albums, processing photos, and shooting wedding after wedding, I got the opportunity to do a shoot for EXPN. I got a request from EXPN to do a shoot with Pro WMA (Women's Motocross Association) motocross racer, Vanessa Florentino. The photos were to be used in a feature on credible women in Action Sports. They needed one action shot and one lifestyle shot.
When the request came in, I thought, this is a great opportunity to do something really cool. So I gave Vanessa a call to discuss some ideas I had. I wanted to do something classy and a little sexy but showcase her as a woman that means business. So I rallied the troops and called in my set coordinator, Michele Johnson of MX Girls to help out! It was a huge help having Michele assist and organize the outfits, fix Vanessa's makeup, adjust her hair, etc. I could not have done it without her...Thanks Michele!
Also want to give a shout out to Ryan Leyba for hooking me up with Micah Abrams at EXPN to do the shoot! Word-em-up Ryan!
Vanessa is 20 years old and recently competed in the 2008 X Games 14. Not only is Vanessa smokin hot, she also rips on the track.
Here are some of the photos from our shoot.
