Travel photography – Rio de Janiero – Day one.
Not a breath of wind, warm sun and laid out before me – Ipanema.
I can’t easily express how happy I am to be here. I think it was a book… No, a film. I think it was a film that I saw a long time ago that took place in Brazil which inspired me to create something here. I love fashion photography.
There was a model in LA that wanted to be here but her agent said, “she doesn’t test.” Personally I can understand that she would miss work by leaving the country. But when I suggested shooting in Los Angeles her agent said, “No, she is too big to test.” Later, I told an A list actor friend of mine about this. He said, “Great. Maybe I should quit studying my craft. I guess I know everything there is to know about it right?”
It worked out for the best as things usually do. I went to a casting today at an agency in Rio and met a few amazing Brazilian models more than willing to shoot.
One is here with me now. She is very tall. Young. She just parked her bike in the sand and put her things down by the yellow beach umbrella. White tennis shoes. White shorts. Cotton shirt. Blue eyes. Black hair.

BTW… New site goes live on Dec 16.
Robert, I have admired your work for a long time. Your site is great, very informative. I was in Buzios with my wife when you were writing this in Ipanema. Brazil is wonderful. I have to go back. I wish we could have had a drink together and talked about photgraphy. You could have also shot my wife. She is a model and I would have been glad to assist you. Another time.
Great work…
