Los Angeles-based celebrity photography team Larsen & Talbert are still reeling with excitement. Their shoot with Jillian Michaels has landed on the cover of SELF Magazine—the first time they’ve had a cover on a major Conde Nast magazine, a company that usually uses contract cover shooters.
It’s kind of a big milestone in our career.
-Michael Larsen
Larsen and Talbert have been shooting for SELF for 10 years. Last year they shot Michaels for a fitness layout, which was so well-received that SELF decided to pull them back in for a cover. The shoot was two days long, one day on location at a home in Malibu, and one day in studio. The on-location shots put them right in the middle of record-high heat in LA, a situation highly hazardous for makeup.
We had to dash outside, get the shot and retreat back into the air conditioning.
Take a look at the behind-the-scenes video below, especially for the shots of Michael jumping on a trampoline with a joyous expression. You can also watch the highlight reel.
