Amazing Race's Kynt and Vyxsin’s Farewell Shoot

Origianlly Published September 9th, 2008


Celebrities, Wrestling Superstars, WWE Divas, Playboy Playmates and Reality Show Stars know where to come when they want great photography and styling services.












We had the pleasure about two weeks ago to do one final shoot with our good friends Kynt and Vyxsin, a day out from their long road trip and permanent move to California. Many of you may know them from the local Louisville Goth Scene, or even more, from the hit TV show of The Amazing Race last season.












The two had decided to make the move to be closer to the entertainment industry out on the west coast, and to continue their pursuit of the Hollywood dream. We've known the pair for many years, and it was a pleasure to be able to set them on their way with some fresh photo content for their actor's headshots and portfolios.

The evening in the studio started with complimentary M. Rock Style services, as our style team worked magic on first Kynt and then Vyxsin's hairstyles. Afterwards I consulted on what makeup looks would look best for their shots and recommended color usage. After I completed the final touches on Kynt's eye makeup and lashes, Vyxsin and I rummaged through her wardrobe and we came up with the setups that would work best for the shoot.



















As usual, our internationally known photographer, Todd Fischer, would lead the shoot. This was an especially sentimental photoshoot for Todd as he has been a trusted advisor and friend to Kynt and Vyxsin for some time. Todd is also scaling back his shooting responsibilities soon as he is involved in a 14-hour mini-series project for Sci-Fi channel.





































No worries though, as Todd's apprentice Trish Nohalty is more than capable of picking up the extra work. Trish was a remarkable addition to the photoshoot, capturing Kynt and Vyxsin in some of our most favorite photos. There is a certain feeling of accomplishment to know that as Kynt and Vyxsin are handing out headshots and resumes all over Hollywood….that an M. Rock Style photo is what the casting agents will be seeing.



































In closing, it was sad to see their headlights pull out of the driveway for the last time. We hope to see them a couple of times a year when they return to visit. And don't rule out a cameo appearance by the pink and black attack on a Sci-Fi channel show in the near future.
