The Inside Scoop: “The Sextillionaire Academy” Photo Shoot



You’ve come to the right place for a behind-the-scenes look at the exclusive “The Sextillionaire Academy” photo shoot that took place last Saturday, September 12th. Held at Covo in Harlem, a great restaurant and lounge with a nice secluded location, a cozy environment and excellent food, the mood was set for a fabulous shoot before the models even arrived. Then, thanks to a dedicated staff and an amazing group of talent, “The Sextillionaire Academy” was really brought to life.

Among the models featured in the shoot were The Tesla Group’s very own Isadora Klidonis and Tiffany Toro, along with guest models Micaela Piccolo, Lavante Isaac, Andrew Michael, and Miami’s 100.93 Rock VJ/Radio Host Frankie. The shoot also featured Southern Connecticut State University’s All-American running-back Darrin Davis, who holds the school’s record for the most touchdowns in a game, as well as the record for the most rushing attempts in a single game. Considered to be lightning fast, Davis has taken part in NFL training camps with the Green Bay Packers and The New England Patriots, has played professionally in the Arena League, and hopes to play in the NFL this season. And what would a Tesla Group photo shoot be without the company’s favorite multi-platinum music producer Chad Beatz? Chad, who has worked with everyone’s favorite artists, 50 Cent, Ashanti, Gym Class hereos, Robin Thicke, Cassie, Jim Jones, and more, rocked the newest additions to “The Sextillionaire Academy” clothing line alongside the other models.

Various shots were taken of Chad Beatz in “The Sextillionaire Academy” 650 convertible BMW, a favorite among the array of photos taken that day by photographer Jose Carlos Alva. The talented Jose Carlos Alva succeeded in capturing the exclusive feel of “The Sextillionaire Academy” and shot high class and sophisticated, yet seemingly drama-filled scenarios. In one shot, a Mason is seducing his eye candy, in another the characters are lounging, taking a break from work and/or school, and in another more scandalous scene, the boys are spying on the girls, who are changing in a locker room.

Also contributing to the overall success of the shoot were the companies who lent all of the clothes and accessories used in the shoot to compliment “The Sextillionaire Academy” collection. That being said, The Tesla Group would like to thank Report Collection, Vintage 1 Jeans, and Chaser’s accessory line for their generous contributions. We are also extremely grateful to makeup artist Sharlene Lee, who worked her magic on each of the models, fully preparing them to play the part of a member of a young society of elite urban hipsters.

“The Sextillionaire Academy” photo shoot could not have been possible if it were not for every single person who contributed to it. After a long hard, but fun-filled, day, we all would agree that the shoot was a huge success. We are also sure that “The Sextillionaire Academy” will be your next obsession, so keep an eye out for it in stores!
