We recently covered Flight to Luxury benefit fashion show to XOXO Salon. It was an AMAZING event!

This event was held to benefit the Boys and Girls club of Metro Denver. All for a good cause, and lots of fun on the way!

Can’t wait to post some photos from the event, but in the meantime, here’s our badly edited video of the backstage chaos, captured for our friends at XOXO Salon!

Enjoy

On Sept 28th, 2009, Jess and I first went on our ‘Urban Safari’.  It was mostly walking around downtown, and capturing the oddities.  Ever since then, she’s been an integral part of what we do, and with some understanding for what it’s like to work with me, she’s done a marvelous job catering to my craziness.

Together, we set out on accomplishing the impossible- conquering the vast chicken fields of Denver with our cameras.  We’ve had our battles, and we’ve had our setbacks (we’re human), but we always focused on the objective, and thus continued slaying the demon horde of the oncoming photoshoots without  a second thought.  Always together, and always telling each other to go “fuck yourself”.  We were indeed a harmonious duo.

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, and young padawans eventually become Jedis, or in some cases, Sith Lords.  In Jess’ case, she’s chosen to leave SyMobius with a very loving, “go fuck yourself, Kyung” and has set out to engage the chicken foes on a solo mission.

for almost 3 years, I’ve always thought of Jess when I would think of SyMobius.  She’s become a staple of what we’re about, and needless to say, a huge influence to our cultural identity.  Not only confident in her own right as a photographer, she’s a never-ending torrent of creativity.  In my opinion, she lives to express herself.  She’s a true artist, and it deeply saddens me to see her depart our nest.

As an artist, I can acknowledge a handful of figures in my life, that I’ve come to respect and depend on, in times of creative need.  Without a doubt, Jess has been one of those fixtures in my life as a photographer.  She worked tirelessly to feed my creative hunger, and to push me when I felt empty.

So without further delay, we salute you, Jess, and we thank you.

Wherever you are, my friend,  I hope you are in good company, and we hope you know that here at SyMobius, you are missed, and also loved.

Your Friend,

Kyung.

On July 6th, we once again photographed Kelly Eden, this time for Dark Beauty Magazine.

In these shots, Kelly wears a pair of amazing corsets provided by Spanish designer, Bibian Blue. It goes without saying, that the corsets do stand out in these photographs. The corsets compliment Kelly in a harmonious ensemble, and in our opinion, it’s always the woman that makes or breaks the picture.

…….

To me, each corset has a different “personally”, if you will. The red one seems more ‘feminine’ and the black one seems to possess a bit of ‘anger’. Thus, the photos we released tailor to that theme. The red photos are bright and soft to the eye, while the black features high contrasts and sharper edges.

If the two corsets are opposites, then perhaps their one common ground would be the model.  Someone who can compliment the outfits with even balance.   To achieve this, Abella and Rebekah has out done themselves.  Abella’s makeup works perfectly with both the darker, and lighter looks, while Rebekah’s hair features an edgy silhouette while remaining feminine.  Cannot say in words how integral their work has been for this release.

We really do hope you enjoy these photographs. We’ve had a ton of fun creating them.

We recently shot Alternative Model, Kelly Eden at a warehouse conveniently located just outside of audible range of a woman’s scream.

All kidding aside, we had a great time shooting at our favorite location, “The Orgy House.”

Here are the results. We hope you like them!
