November 2008Hat HooksBlock Headwear gets shot by Tyler ShieldsWhat good comes out of Skid Row? Shots like these taken by LA-based photographer Tyler Shields. Contra-Band connected with Tyler Shields to give Block Headwear’s first true ad campaign some electricity. And that he did! Tyler’s assistant Morgan powered up huge strobes from a generator in the back of his truck, spotlighting these shots taken on the east side of downtown LA’s train tracks. In true Contra-Band street filming style, we managed wardrobe out of the trunk and our models changed in the back seat of Tyler’s car. Many thanks to Howe for donating all of the clothing worn by the male models in the shoot, with the exception of one great pair of 1921 jeans. Styling credit goes to Daryl Forkell. Hair and makeup was done by Ashley Harris. Models included Kyle Loethan, Julian Foster, and Mary Roth. Final photography editing and retouching was done by Jelina Saurenman. Look for these hot shots and more appearing on the spankin’ new website Contra-Band is launching at www.BlockHeadwear.com. If you don’t already have a Block Headwear cap or trilby, cop one and sexperience that Art of Confidence for yourself |
