Calvin Brockington Fotography

Calvin Brockington is an excellent photographer based in Dallas.  However, he has been getting worldwide recognition for his work.  He is a master at making the male fitness model look strong.  He recently did a shoot with our Kyle Ray which included an upcoming series for N2N Bodywear.  We look forward to more creativity from Calvin and his models.  See the entire gallery from Calvin with Kyle at OnDisplayMen.com.

Kari Jaroszynska Photography

Kari worked with our models Dustin Lail and Austin Otto recently.  Her style is excellent and is the result of a very detailed shooting skill.  She shoots with real film so it is a very different experience for the model.  However, as you can see the results are great.  She is a fashion photographer / web designer / visual artist.

Models who are looking for unique shots to add to their portfolio should contact Kari Jaroszynska Photography.

Jesse J Update

The response to model & actor & musician Jesse J has been amazing.  This week's interview article gave you an insight to who he is.  We have received a lot of emails wanting to know what he is doing now.  The image is from his appearance on the NBC show Chase. We talked to him a couple days ago and here is what he said:

My recent update is I did 2 reenactments for Hometown Heroes.  Then, I recently came out in the TV show Chase and The Comeback Kid.  Now, I've been in Virginia for the past 2 months working on Alone Yet Not Alone it's an Indian Movie but I can't say much more about that project.  Thank you everyone for your support!

Andrew Makay - N2N Bodywear

On Display Men is proud to be working with N2N Bodywear designer and founder Andrew Makay.  He creates more than great swimwear and underwear; his vision launched an apparel revolution for the traveler and adventurous metro-sexual.
I designed my first swimsuit at the age of 21 years old because I couldn't find anything in the US that I liked.  It seemed to me that all the hot, sexy styles with a good fit could only be found on the beaches of Europe, Mexico or South America." Andrew says, "As a gay man in my prime, it was very frustrating.  You work hard at the gym and you want to show it off and not cover it up with uninspiring board shorts or some other constricting style.  What I found on the market in the US was not my idea of sexy at all."
Traveling as a cruise ship performer in the late eighties gave Andrew access to a variety of swimwear styles worldwide.  However, it was on the beaches of Acapulco, known as the playground of Hollywood jet setters, where Makay discovered the "perfect" swimsuit.  The turquoise suit was the inspiration for the new found career in men's swimwear and underwear.

"You have to be careful and selective about who you work with." and
"You have to manage your image from the very beginning of your career; it is your brand."

He now works with select models to develop their Public Image.  He says, "everyone in this industry needs to realize that people judge them every second of every day on the image they portray; either online or on the street."  Check out A Public Image at AlanRust.net.

Health vs. Appearance

Our new Fitness Model and Trainer, Stephen James, has a Fitness Advice article at OnDisplayTrainers.com.  He gives you some great advice about the proper motivation for working out at the gym.

I’m not going against the people who say seeing is believing. You want to be able to look into the mirror after finishing a set and think “I look so much better than I did five minutes ago.” That’s where a lot of the motivation comes from in the weight room.

Early Autumn

When I first saw this recipe I knew it had to be good, just reading through the list of ingredients you can't help but be intrigued. The Bombay Sapphire infusion of apples and pears are echoed in the cider and brandy, then there is absinthe and ginger beer for contrasting but complimentary flavors, and on top of all that the unique addition of Fee Brother Aztec Chocolate bitters. This is certainly not a boring cocktail. It shows off some of the trendy flavors and techniques that are hot and is a great example of the modern mixology at its finest. Adam Schuman of New York's Fatty Crab did a great job creating here.

Indgredients:

• 1.5 oz. Bombay Sapphire infused with dried pear and apples (click for recipe)
• 1/2 oz. Lucid absinthe
• 1 oz. local apple cider
• 1/2 oz. pear brandy (Adam recommends: Massenez Williams Poire Brandy)
• 1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice
• 2 dashes Fee Brothers Aztec Chocolate bitters
• Ginger beer
• cinnamon stick for garnish
• lemon peel for garnish

Preparation:
Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.  Shake well.  Strain into a highball glass filled with ice.  Garnish with a lemon peel and cinnamon stick.   Article courtesy of about.com:cocktails.
