Happy 4th of July from Scott Alin & Joem C. Bayawa





Earlier this year I profiled photographer Joem C. Bayawa's work with 25 year old Chicago model Scott Alin. (see that feature below). I really love Joem's work and some of his best comes from his many collaborations with Scott. Scott exudes such incredible strength in front of the camera and when viewing some of his new work with Joem I knew a follow up was in order! Given the American flag theme in some of the shots what better day than today feature more of Joem's work with Scott.



Scott not only models he is also a writer and actor. One of Scott's recent appearances was in the new video from Rise Against for their song Make It Stop. The Chicago punk band has joined with the It Get Better Project with the song Make It Stop (September's Children) written by Rise Against member Tim McIlrath. The song tackles the subject of bullying and is sending the message to to its fan base that the bullying and harassment of LGBT teens needs to stop and that suicide isn't a solution Check out the video on Youtube HERE:
