Ike Love Chooses Model to Shoot with for His Upcoming Divinity Photoshoot for His Upcoming Holiday Showcase/Reception

I am putting together a holiday showcase and reception in December that is to be based on the theme of Divinity.  For the showcase, I've conceived of displaying images composed of me and a female model in metallic bodypaint doing artistic nude poses to depict the statues and images from antiquity of Divinity.

Well, after getting a response from about a dozen models, and meeting face-to-face with several, I decided to go with Masha.  From when I saw her images and met with her in person, I sensed on a deep intuitive level that she was the right fit for the shoot and our creative energies synced in such a way that we are going to have a great time producing some great shots.
Masha
Masha is a Russian born, Texas-raised painter/sculptor/video/installation/performance artist. She has modeled for painters, photographers, sculptors, and filmmakers in different settings and contexts.  As an artist and model she likes to take creative risks - to test the limitations of body, space, perception, time. She loves to play, embody, and channel the unknown.


In addition to classical modeling, she has assisted many artists in the past and has also worked as a hair/makeup artist on film sets and is also a certified REIKI practitioner. Through all of what she does, her vision is to empower herself and others to heal, clear, relax, inspire, and embody the magic of being the you that you are. 

Ike Love
My path in this life is to enlighten, to empower, and to inspire. On my journey to produce a captivating Holiday Reception/Showcase, I'm excited to partake in this next step and produce some truly inspiring shots with someone on a similar journey.

Stay tuned on upcoming developments and for the name of the upcoming showcase...

Creative Team Assembled for the Sadio Underwear Ad Campaign Photo Shoot

I'm pleased to announce that the creative team has been assembled for the upcoming photo shoot on Monday, August 31st for the Sadio underwear ad campaign to be featured at the IKE SHOW VIDEO LAUNCH - "Get out of Your Own Way."

Here's the team:

Cavier Coleman - Ad Campaign Photographer


Cavier Coleman is a Detroit born photographer/artist that first started off as a model at 19 years old traveling the globe from around the U.S. to South Africa, to Australia.  After he felt he learned as much as he could as a model, he made his transition into photography, where his natural artistic ability enabled him to quickly develop a trademark style that set him apart from others in the industry.  His liberal use of bright colours that called the user's attention to every pixel of the shot has gotten him work with Ford, DNA, and Request Model Agencies and the covers for Obvious Magazine, and editorial spreads for OPPA, Rough, Complex and Interview Magazines.  To find out more about him, view more of his work and contact him for a collaboration, check out his site at www.caviercoleman.com

PSCOTT - Image-Maker/Makeup Artist/CEO of PSCOTT IMAGES

Jabari - Videographer


Jabari, Founder of The Simple Studio location in Greenpoint Brooklyn, is multimedia artist comprising of photography, film and fine art.  His images aim to create representations of his subject’s physical presence, but they also seek to find ways to talk about the world they transverse. In this way he thinks of myself as a portrait photographer capturing images that tell as much about a person as a time, experience, moment, or memory connected to the world we inhabit. he likes to bring this approach to all aspects of of his work and use it to give anyone in his studio a unique experience and images that speak to their distinct experience. This is hisSimple mantra…To see more of his work and to work with him check out his site at: www.thesimplestudio.com

Svetlana Jovanovic - Behind-the-Scenes Still Photographer


Svetlana is a Serbian born photographer now based in NYC.  She studied photography at the Royal Academy of the Arts in The Netherlands, The International Center of Photography in New York City and the Nuova Accademia di Belle Arts in Milan, Italy.  She has also done an artist residency at Point B in Brooklyn, NY.  You can view more of her work and contact her to work with her at www.svetlanajovanovic.com

Cavier Coleman Signs on as Photographer for Sadio Underwear Ad Campaign to Be Featured at IKE SHOW VIDEO LAUNCH

It's been awhile folks.  I guess the message is that no matter how hopeless or challenging things seem, keep plugging away and NEVER give up.  The IKE SHOW VIDEO LAUNCH - "Get out of Your Own Way" is still on course and I am pleased to announce that photographer/fine artist - Cavier Coleman has been signed as of Tuesday, August 11th, 2015 to shoot yours truly for the Sadio Underwear Ad Campaign that will be featured at the upcoming IKE SHOW VIDEO LAUNCH.





Cavier Coleman is a Detroit born photographer/artist that first started off as a model at 19 years old traveling the globe from around the U.S. to South Africa, to Australia.  After he felt he learned as much as he could as a model, he made his transition into photography, where his natural artistic ability enabled him to quickly develop a trademark style that set him apart from others in the industry.  His liberal use of bright colours that called the user's attention to every pixel of the shot has gotten him work with Ford, DNA, and Request Model Agencies and the covers for Obvious Magazine, and editorial spreads for OPPA, Rough, Complex and Interview Magazines.




Success as a model and a photographer has heightened his artistic interests and led him to revisit his childhood interest in painting.  Though influenced by greats such as Pablo Picasso and Jean Michel Basquiat, the style of his painting, just like his photography is unmistakably Cavier - high contrast, bold lines and vibrant colour schemes.  His work has been featured in Bottle Neck Gallery, RAW Artist Showcase, and The Great Pass Art Tour.

In regards to his work, Cavier says,"I don't just look at myself as an artist.  I am a visionary."  Currently he's involved in several projects and has work displayed in several store displays, agency websites, and art galleries around the world and is working towards becoming a household name.

It's an honour to have Cavier on board.
