Tamar Braxton and I on set of LOVE AND WAR Music Video
This was a two-day music video, both in Hollywood Hills and Malibu. Yes my feet are about 10 inches deep in the sand but worth the shot. She’s a pro, love her!

Karina Pasian and I at our shoot
Frenchie Davis
Frenchie Davis, by Walid Azami
A few years ago you probably remember Miss Frenchie’s American Idol career derailed due to an internet controversy. In what some call the biggest mistake in Idol history, Frenchie Davis was sent off the show but that was not the end of Frenchie. She went on to star in numerous Broadway shows, became Grammy nominated last year and surprised even the biggest of critics by her appearance on the Billboard Dance Chart. She guest sang on the song YOU ARE by Tony Moran. She sang the entire thing but sadly only got guest credit.
Frenchie is back in the studio. She’s ready to make a sound for herself, ready to show the world her talent again. She asked me to do a series of sexy promotional images. Here is the first of them!
Cee-lo Green!
A small time ago, we filmed some making of the Cee-lo album cover. Here he is in downtown Los Angeles.
Ciara
It’s always a nice surprise when you see your work in random places. Here is the image that I photographed of Ciara as a massive poster on the wall and cut out also.

LA INK: “Ruthless”
Last Friday we photographed the promotional images for new LA INK artist, Ruth Pineda “Ruthess”. It was photographed in Los Angeles and it was my chance to photograph Ruthie’s many sides. While the images are still in the post-production stage here is a little peak at one of her looks. The other artist with her is Mac Lucci, he’s Snoop’s newest artist.
Uhh…. Wow.
Look at the amazing photos taken of Madonna for Interview Magazine. They are art pieces not magazine images!
USHER: 944 Magazine by Walid Azami
OK little by little the magazines are releasing my images with Usher, so I can finally post them. Here is the picture for 944 Magazine and Usher on the cover of it. These photos were shot in Los Angeles. This is the inside which will be featured in all 944′s nationwide but the Atlanta version will also have Usher on the cover.

OK now I can show the picture, because it was already released as a promo. I was fortunate enough to work with the one and only Ciara again. I photographed the cover for her upcoming HOT SINGLE, “Ride”. I am very proud of this project, honored to work with a true talent like Ciara, and love her picture! That’s all! You’ll all be able to support her new single and watch the video for it soon enough.
UPDATE: Ciara just announced her album will be called Basic Instinct.
Usher Promo Shoot and on TV!
This morning I saw the next set of images being used for the new album promotional tour. If you tune into GMA, you can see Usher on stage (or on the GMA website) with my images behind him on stage. Here are the full res images of what is on stage with him.
