A Shoot With My Beautiful Sister

Dina — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:13:13 +0000

I did this stylish shoot with my sister — Lisa Douglass — using a wildly interesting location: The hallway and roof of her apartment building. My sister is both beautiful and a talented writer. She just won first prize in UCLA’s May Merrill Awards fiction-writing contest.

Anastasia

Anastasia is a beautiful child, and I was thrilled that she was so much fun to shoot.

Welcome to the World, Kieran!

Rupa and Jerry did their maternity shoot just a few weeks before their son Kieran was born, so you may remember them from a recent blog posting. I had the opportunity to meet Kieran this past Thursday, and he was just too cute.

Pooja & Amish

Pooja and Amish are busy doctors. But not too busy to have a baby.

Betty, Hazim & Olivia

Betty is one of my beautiful brides from 2005, and Hazim is her oh-so-handsome husband. How cute is this baby?

Rupa & Jerry

I think Rupa may be having her baby today.

Simon & Kal

These are the cutest brothers ever.

All Strung Out

Hear that voice on the latest CVS commercial? Well, it belongs to the beautiful Kathy Fisher, whose work with the band Fisher has been featured on numerous CDs, in tons of movies, and in many high-profile national commercials. Kathy, along with guitarist/pianist Mark Governor, cellist Peggy Baldwin and others, will be playing at the Ford Amphitheater on Sunday, June 15th (Father’s Day). I had the pleasure of shooting the promo photos for this cool new band, whose concert will be called “All Strung Out.” Not familiar with Kathy’s extraordinary voice? Just do a search on “Fisher” on iTunes, then check out the album “True North.” You may recognize the song “Breakable,” which appeared on the “Great Expectations” movie soundtrack. I’m particularly partial to the songs “Too Late” and “Miss Ophelia.” Talented, and cool peeps to boot.

Miss India USA – Ayushka Singh

Dina — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 01:55:00 +0000

The dazzling and talented Ayushka Singh is Miss India USA 2006-2007. As beautiful on the inside as she is out, Ayushka seems destined for great things in her life. Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, Ayushka and her wonderful family (whom I adore) emigrated to the US in 1999. The youngest of three children, Ayushka currently resides in Southern California. Ayushka will crown the new Miss India USA later this month.

Introducing . . . Ramona Wright

Dina — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 17:59:00 +0000

I had a great time photographing the beautiful Ramona Wright. They sky’s the limit for this wicked smart girl, and she hopes to use her recent Ziba Girl win as a launch pad for new modeling and spokesmodel opportunities. Her passions include producing creative projects for film, TV and the web. Ramona will soon be launching a blog — Ms. wRight Says — which will provide commentary on diversity matters and pop culture. Look for it in 2008. A big thanks to my good friend Yoshi Morimoto for helping out.
