I have been fortunate to be able to feature Pittsburgh's Jonah Model in two pieces over the last two months and his work with MW Photo MD. (Halloween Hotel | On The Rise) Jonah's passion for modeling makes him a natural in front of the camera, relaxed and open to creative collaboration with the photographers he works with.
And who wouldn't want to work with Jonah, in addition to his love and commitment to the work, the 20 year old model has a great body, tall, lean and perfectly suited for both fashion and fitness. Jonah also has a magnificently expressive face, especially his great lips and soulful brown eyes that add a beautiful layer of depth and emotion. One of the first photographers to notice and capture Jonah's with camera is photographer Art Lenser.
'Art and I have a good Chemistry when we shoot because we are laid back in our shoots. We are friends and that helps a lot. We do a lot of shoots for my portfolio which I use when I am seeking various modeling jobs. My work with Art has helped prepare me for working with various photographers.'
Jonah and Art have worked together close to 20 times over the last year, shooting a variety of looks and themes in both studio and on location. I especially loved Art's shots of Jonah on the train tracks, a location I particularly love as a setting for shooting the male form. Given this is Jonah's third appearance on FH, I took the opportunity to throw him my 'favorites quiz, a series of short questions to give viewers a bit more insight and info about the model and man in the images that so many of you have been enjoying.
