“Greetings everyone,” says our current angel with a smile as adequate punctuation. “My name is Melody Kaye.  I was born in Los Angeles, but raised in Sugar Land, a small city right outside of Houston. I currently reside in Houston, but travel all over.” Traveling has of course brought out a few favorites. “I love VEGAS, it seems overrated.  But I go almost 20 times a year, and I am still not tired from it. The food is also yummy there too and of course all your mainstream shops are all along the Vegas strip. I love Hong Kong as well.  Anyone that has been, cannot argue about that.  Best food, best bargains, all in one stop.”

Sarah Louise Johnson, a photographer I believe based in the UK, has an eye I have just recently become a fan of. Her images tell a story, form a cohesive aesthetic that translates into concept. Her passion is evident and the industry has already taken with her work appearing in publications such as Rocker Years, Mod Years, Snap and All Access. Bands, record labels, agencies and many more who make up this industry have commissioned to capture images to market themselves and their products. Here are a few examples of her style and vision.

Beauty should be appreciated for more than its physical attributes. There is beauty all around us, heaven on earth exists and we here at Angels Playpen are driven by this pursuit. It is our Weltanschauung, our personal view of life and the world around us. We believe beauty does more than just arouse the physical, it uplifts the soul. “Beauty to me,” our current angel says answering one of my favorite questions to ask, “is displaying an attitude and personality that makes everyone around you feel amazing no matter how they felt before they got to you.” Her definition of beauty closely resembles her idea of an angel; “Someone who comes into your life and has a lasting positive impact.” Let us discover what impact this particular angel may have on us.

Named after an ox long extinct, Lamborghini latest foray into SUV's, the Urus as it's called, will be Lamborghini's first attempt at practicality. Since SUV's seem to be growing increasingly popular as evidenced by the Porsche Cayenne, the Urus hopes to capture a significant portion of the demand. Recently unveiled at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, the Urus is said to represent a whole new direction for the luxury car manufacturer. The ancient beast after which it's named, known for imposing size represents the character of the design. The Lamborghini Urus is definitely a man's vehicle. This isn't their first SUV offering, look up it's elder, much boxier LM002.

The weather woman said things are going to warm up soon. I want to run. It clears my head but I’m no indoor runner nor do I like to run in cold, clammy weather. During the winter months I suffer a sort of mental congestion. Therefore I usually winter with weights; training of any kind has a multitude of benefits.  “I never worked out until just recently,” says our current tattooed angel, Lisa Zee. “I got a gym membership to build some muscle,” her reason for working out clear. “My arms are terribly weak so my goal is to be able to do even just one pull up. I will be ecstatic if that happens!”

This angel, a contact sport playing doll, comes from a small town in North Carolina called Morganton. A town located close to the historic archeological site of Joara, a substantially sized Native American settlement for the Mississippians. Ironically the contact sport she plays, “I’m pretty good at playing Lacrosse”, is a sport with Native American origins. Her name is Jacey McAdon, a sweetheart with an innocence that belies her enticing photos. Parents originally from Laos, Jacey doesn’t live in Morganton anymore. “I am currently living in Tulsa, OK,” a city she proudly represents. With its concerts and “the fact that I live real close to Garth Brooks”, she laughs when telling what she loves about the city in which she lives. I’m just happy to have her in Angels Playpen.
