You probably all know someone like this – that person who decides they want to do something and then they just excel at it.  I have a person like this in my life.  Those of you that have attended Mega Muscle events probably already know him.  He’s that guy that is always right on top of whatever you need but never in the way.  He can make Lucas’ hair that perfect color of blonde, create an apocalyptic world with some shears and old fur coats, throw together a male review at a moments notice, and still make sure everything stays clean, organized and relatively sane.

He is simply…  Kenny.

Kenny Wujek for those of you not so intimate with the inner workings of Team Mega Muscle.  I first met Kenny when I was working for Rodale Publications and he owned this amazing boutique in downtown Portland.  Our friendship grew from there and he also became my hair stylist.  When he sold his store a few years ago, I needed a stylist to come on a high-concept shoot that we were doing in the desert just North of the Mexican border and thought he would be perfect.  Okay, moment of truth – my motivatin was two-fold.  I also was able to steal him off a job he was scheduled to do with my former business partner and that gave me immense pleasure. From that trip on, Kenny became an integral part of everything that Mega Muscle does and he worked closely with me on every trip we have had since.

Well now Kenny Wujek has a new position at Mega Muscle – that of photographer!

I admit it, I do get jealous of Kenny sometimes because everything he does he just does so well.  But I have a gift too – that of recognizing talent and taking full advantage of it!  Knowing that Kenny would be an amazing photographer was a given.  But now I am happy to share the results of the beginnings of his work with us.  I am so grateful that I have been able to lean on him to help out with all of our Mega Muscle projects but now I am ecstatic to share with the world his  latest photographic endeavors – I hope all of you love them as much as I do!
