Personal Information:
Name: Franklin Thompson
Explanation: I love Russian military, cold war fashion. I thought I’d put a spin on it (using the name of my fav drink…. ‘Black Russian’).
I shot a full 7 page story with this ‘Black Russian’ theme. It never ran but it’s still one of my favorites. This was supposed to be the opening shot.
Melissa Rodwell’s Critique: I love Russian Military fashion as well! Actually, I love all kinds of military fashion; it’s very strong and sexy, which Franklin’s photograph definitely is all about: Strong and Sexy! Perfect model, really, for the shot. She’s got the confidence to pull off the military uniform, love how the eyes match the fabric, which by the way looks great! The make up artist did a great job! Just a strong shot, over all. Kudos, Franklin. And sorry the story didn’t run. It definitely should have!
I too have to applaud teh MUA on a job well done and after looking at th esite have to say that any of teh images from the set look like they could have easily been the SOTW. Great work! You have a new fan
