Ha! I don't think so...he's only been registered here for only five months, with no challenge entries and has yet to vote. ;-)

Actually, I can see them together. They are two of the more technically competent photographers on the show. I think they have more similarities than the show editing lets on.

And congrats, Dean. That shot of Joss Stone was fabulous.

It's all good. Jason and Dean have gotten together off-screen to collaborate on this site.

Their contact info lists them around my area, just down the road in San Pedro (southern California).

Hmmm ... I wonder if we can imply from this project that Dean didn't win, and thus has time to pursue this venture with Jason while Maria is off shooting VS models. :-) Just an observation ...

Loved that shot. Way to go, Dean! You pulled it off when they were thinking you messed up. ;)

Dean, to echo what was already said, your shot of Joss was outstanding. Out of all the challenges so far, your shot was the most standout winner so far. Well done!
And not for nothing, I've seen lots of pictures of Joss Stone before. But I didn't realize until I watched the show how seriously beautiful she is. Wow! You did the best job of making her look fantastic, without a bunch of distracting props to get in the way.
I'm rooting for either you or Maria to walk away with the top prize, so good luck. We'll just have to wait and see what happens!

I was thinking that too, but maybe he won and got money to start this new venture. Could work both ways ;)

Jason's shot was not that good this week, but I'm really surprised that he left instead of John. I thought John was clearly the worst in every regard this week. They must have had some other reason for wanting to keep him around, like maybe he polls best in the 13-24 female demo. ;-)

That shot Dean took this week was the first time on the show that I just said "Wow!" I have a huge crush on Maria and have been a fan of Jason since the beginning of the show, but I can't agree more with the judge's take on Dean's photo this week. WTG!

I thought Jason got the boot mostly because he never really listened to his criticism (or at least, did not appear to put the listening into practice) where John has always seemed to listen to his criticism and make the appropriate adjustments.

I told Dean about this

photo about a month ago, and he copied the idea :)

LOL, of course I don't know the guy, but hey... idea is the same, rail road vs. runway... and any girl vs. celebrity ;P

...Dean ( DeeRiot)--congratulations on the photo that is to appear in Marie Claire in January! At this point, I'm thinking you'll take first place with Maria being the runner-up.

I am thinking right now, his PM's through the roof :)

I am happy for the guy; he is nice, fighter... he reminds me Arnold, not body wise but competitor attitude wise. He is very sure of himself, and that's what all counts.

Go Dean and Maria... I wish they were both would be the winners at the end somehow ;)

Unfortunately, I don't think he copied your idea--the show was taped late summer/early fall. :-(

Haha I didn't want to say that, because I didn't want to sound like I was downplaying her photography skills (which are excellent). But Maria is REALLY cute!! Adorable face, great body, and she's a fantastic photographer. Don't tell my wife, but I think I'm in love LOL! :)

Cindi, you'll have some big shoes (or rather, high heels) to fill next season... :)

One of the judges on The Shot (the Marie Claire woman) admits that she didn't want to kick Ivan out of the competition way back in Episode 2.

By the way, here is Dean's shot of Joss Stone that is in the January edition of MC magazine...

I have added links for episodes (highlights) 4, 5, 6 and 7 to my website. You always welcome to watch them whenever you like without going to VH1 :)

PS: Try not to start multiple at once, gets annoying with all the sound mixed in :)

You can't view them? Sometimes they lag and wait for a long time. You should try again later if you can't see it the first time. Those videos should be worldwide regardless where you are... I think :P
