BUD LIGHT MAXIM enfócate

Maxim Magazine (the Spanish Version) and Bud Light (the international version) joined forces for a national tour of U.S. cities holding huge parties at each stop and searching for beautiful faces to grace the pages of the magazine.  They coined the event enfoócate con Maxim and set up a website chronicling their travels at www.enfocateconmaxim.com .  Heavenly Latinas strutted their stuff on the stage, which doubled as a full-fledged photography studio, and had their pictures taken holding bottles of ice cold Bud Light.  The photographer shot couples, groups, and solo chicas and chicanos.  I was thrilled to be a part of the show during the stop here in Phoenix.  Here is a partial listing of the other tour stops:

Miami, Tampa, Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, El Paso, Austin, Dallas, San Diego, Chicago, Denver, Las Vegas, New York, Los Angeles

Cardenas Marketing Network was once again the promoters of this event.  I had worked for them at the 2005 enfócate held in Scottsdale at Axis Radius.  

I had not previously worked with either of the models that were hired for this event, but they were fantastic to work with and really looked awesome in the photos.  The model painted with the Maxim logo is Alice Borcean and the model with the Budlight logo is Paris Harshman.  We did the painting in ladies room at Club DwnTwn.   It took approximately an hour and half to paint each girl and then they were turned loose to entertain the masses.  The paintings were airbrushed using Badger Airbrushes, compressors, and the paints used were Totally Tattoo, Temptu, and Wolfe Brothers. 

Note that pictures from this event were featured in the 2007 Bodypainting by Mark Greenawalt calendar.  Click the image below for additional information.

This was a very fun event and I stuck around until after midnight.  Here are a few more shots of the event ...
