A Man About Potsdam Mens Fashion in Germany





This was a dream come true for me! Shooting mens fashion in Germany! I pre-scouted the location the day before and it was pouring down rain with a forecast to rain the entire week we were in Germany. 
I figured I wouldn't fight the rain and find a way to incorporate that into the shoot.  Well on shoot day the clouds stopped weeping and we had not one drop of rain all day.  The cloudy sky made for dramatic 
inspirations for the shoot.  The models Henrik and Ferdinand were perfect.  Lisa & Lisa rocked it with wardrobe and makeup, and Aeon was a champ driving in a foreign country!   I chose Potsdam because of its 
fairytale like setting and allure of the palaces of Potsdam made for a fabulous setting for a fashion shoot.   The designers in Berlin are really making art and pushing limits of fashion in my opinion.  Lisa of Fier was able to 
get some amazing fashions to shoot. Here is a link to her post from our shoot.  http://www.fiermanagement.com/post/4183789052/adayinpostdam

I spent the morning with mayor Oscar Goodman on his last day in office as mayor of Las Vegas after a 12 year run. We enjoyed time chatting about his experiences while in office. I was thankful to have the opportunity to be able to photograph someone who has put such a finger print on Las Vegas.
