An Easy Rider With a Heart of (Ulee’s) Gold

Kurv Magazine_Giuliano Bekor_Fonda_1

A few months ago, Giuliano was asked to shoot counter-culture icon (and one of my personal heroes) Peter Fonda (!!!) for Australian magazine Kurv. We spent the day laughing, listening to music, hanging out with his lovely wife, hearing amazing candid stories, and receiving an unexpected education about important environmental issues close to Mr. Fonda’s heart (for more on that, please visit www.peterfonda.com).

We’ve been patiently waiting to release the shots, and finally, the Kurv issue hit news stands this week. Check out a small selection of images below (wardrobe styling by Avo Yermagyan, grooming by Barbara Lamelza, and prop styling by Kim Pretti) with a few behind the scenes shots thrown in as well, and make sure to pick up a copy of Kurv! Now pardon me while I shamelessly take a moment to re-live my ultimate fan girl moment. :-) Continue reading

Hollywood Glam

GIULIANOBEKOR_HAIR4How amazing did everyone look at the Oscars last night? We were loving the Hollywood glam throwback on some of the hottest celebrities that graced the red carpet. Jessica Chastain, Adele, Zoe Saldana, Jennifer Lawerence and Charlize Theron were some of our favorites rocking the classic old Hollywood look but with a modern twist. Being that we live in the heart of it all, we’re still feeling the energy and excitement over here at Lightbox Studio, and wanted to share with you some of our favorite Hollywood glam hair styles from one of Giuliano’s shoots with hair stylist and makeup artist Olaf Derlig. What were some of your favorite Oscar looks?  Continue reading

Sympathy for the Snow

merchant-006

We’ve had some cold weather lately in LA – it even got down to 40° F in some areas this week and believe it or not, our (distant) mountains are covered in a dusting of snow. That’s a big deal in this neck of the woods! It’s been a crazy winter storm season and to our friends who get real snow, we don’t know how you do it! In sympathy for the snow, we’re posting some of our favorite shots from our man-made Malibu snow storm last month for New Zealand based shoe and bag company Merchant 1948 with creative director Thomas Cannings. Check them out and enjoy!

Giuliano, however, is soaking it in on location at The Moorings Village in beautiful Islamorada, Florida for a shoot with Avon Cosmetics and the team of Metromotion Productions. Here’s a little tease of warmer weather, behind the scenes with GIuliano. Enjoy!
