This modeling shoot was the brainchild of Leon Baasden, residing in Pretoria. He said: I have dabbled in many things in my life, but this was by far the most nerve-racking.

Top Models SA Team took it upon themselves to set a platform for all in the entertainment industry, by setting its feelers out on the Facebook page of Top Models SA to see who was interested. An outstanding number of enquiries were made, and many signed up.

Top Models set about to find a suitable venue for the shoot, but to keep it as comfortable as possible. It was then decided to use a residential location to set the mood of tranquility and style. The shoot took place on Sunday, 6 December 2009 at Sibriana Estate in the east of Pretoria. The perfect venue to host such a wide variety of lovely ladies and gentleman.

The day was off to a good start with the Top Models SA Team and the industry players organizing the final touches before the shoot was to begin. The location was the perfect set for the ladies to set fireworks off. Not counting the gentleman out, the lenses sizzled with every ripped torso and pec on display. A titillating view for anyones eyes. Professionalism was the order of the day, with mutual respect between the different art forms.

The behind the scenes videographers were victorious in their task to seize all the missed footage the photographers may have missed. These videos are set to make a few tongues wag once released.

The models were set to task in every position, pose and scenario, making effortless work for each photographer. Every photographer and model portrayed themselves in their own unique distinguished way, leaving an open platform for everyone to work easily with each other.

All angles of the whole days work was perfectly integrated into each photo taken. The day was filled with fun, excitement and of course work. But in all, at the end of the day, everyone was satisfied with the results. The great success of the day was most in part to all who participated in the enthusiastic, playful, hard work that is so well displayed in the photographs.

Top Models SA Team are preparing to have the next photo shoot in the next three months, so keep a look out on the Top Models SA calendar for the next mega photo shoot.
