Meet Photographer Duncan Williams Hometown: Scotch Plains, New Jersey How did you get started? Tell us a little about yourself. I started taking photographs of friends in high school and it carried over into college and into adulthood. While in high school, I dressed up and took self portraits with a timer on my film Mamiya Sekor 1000 camera. I modeled and walked the annual GQ and The Congressional Black Caucus shows and did acting in the Washington, DC area in the late 80s. Fashion has always been a part of my life in one way or another. My style of shooting fashion goes in different directions. It can be trendy, high fashion or edgy it’s all commercial work after it’s done.

Meet Model Bethany Chasteen Hometown: Chesapeake, Virginia How did you get started? Tell us a little about yourself. I am a very diverse mix of ethnicities. My dad is African American, Mexican, and Cherokee and my mother is Caucasian, French European, Creole, and Sioux Indian. I was born with Sickle cell anemia and had a very hospitalized youth including removal of my spleen, gallbladder and lung fluid from blood clots. I continue to fight pain every day, but keep moving and push harder to get to where I wanted to be in life. When I won the Sickle Cell pageant in my teens, I actually felt beautiful and that I could be seen as normal even with a childhood full of hospitalizations and constant pain that continues to this day. I had images done and set up my images on websites where I was scouted to come up to NY and got signed. Three adjectives to describe yourself. I am a Scorpio so determined, passionate, and a bit feisty. What do you enjoy the most about modeling? Meeting so many talented people coming together to produce art. What do you not enjoy about modeling? Castings that last hours. Favorite color? Rose Gold Favorite food? Any dish that has to do with rice. What designer would you love to model/walk for? Why? Saint Laurent I love its sleek and modern vibe. Plus the fact that they use 14 a variety of diverse models for their campaigns and shows. SALYSÉ MAY 2018
What photographer would you love to shoot with? Why? I’ve shot with many great photographers, but I’d love to shoot with one of the classic greats Irving Penn, whose art displayed so much feeling. Speak it into existence, where do you see yourself in 5 years? Happy with my husband and maybe one kid living in a nice home, working as a model still and masters in science as a nurse practitioner. Dream vacation you would like to take (or have taken)? I’ve been to some beautiful places, but one I would love to see would be Australia. Your zodiac sign? I am a Scorpion queen. Favorite superhero? Why? My mother. She had a very hard upbringing with 11 brothers and sisters and went and got an amazing education including her Masters in Science and stuck through having me as a daughter being born with Sickle Cell anemia along with her own trials and tribulations. She is the ultimate superhero. What person, living or dead, do you admire the most? Why? Myself for all that I’ve been through and overcome. What’s your favorite quote? I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. What’s your theme song? “Be Alright” by Ariana Grande. What is your favorite body part? In myself, my side profile, lol always my go to.

Favorite actor/actress? Do not have one at this time. Your idea of “happiness” and/or your idea of “misery”. My idea of happiness is feeling a sense of fulfillment and purpose to anything you choose to do. And misery is the opposite. If you could learn to do anything, what would it be? Finally become fluent in Spanish. Guilty Pleasure? Reese’s… all kinds. Last show you binge-watched? Practically all of Netflix, Game of Thrones being a fav. Last book you read? The Bible. Anything else you want the readers to know about you? Believe in God’s strength, stay motivated and chase your dreams no matter what. Follow Bethany on Social Media IG: @_chasteen__

Meet Hair & Makeup Artist Yvonne Forbes Hometown: Now New Jersey. Born a in Sheffield, Great Britain How did you get started? Tell us a little about yourself. As a model, I decided that I could expedite things backstage by doing my own makeup and also the other models makeup, so I trained to become a makeup artist while modeling.

Three adjectives to describe yourself Resourceful, Diligent, Patient What do you enjoy the most about being a HMUA? Creativity and pushing the boundaries of creativity. What do you not enjoy about being a HMUA? 1. Lugging my make-up cart! 2. Models requesting a different vision/application from what the directors of the shoot have requested.
