Schoolgirl in front of the mirror.
Stan had
always much luck to find pretty models for his work.
Sylvia
Rodriquez was a young Californian girl of Spanish descent when Stan discovered
her at a wedding in 1977. She was 5 ft. 1 in. tall and had 57 inches (144 cm)
of length to her auburn tresses. She usually braided her dense hair in two
round coils at each side of her head.
Sylvia
Rodriquez at the L.A. University campus. The bright green of the lawn enhances the
red-brown color of her hair. Such photos in full color are rare and often faded
now if not carefully stored over the years.
Sylvia in the backyard of her
house.
Stan
photographed her from 1977 to 1979 on various locations.
Sylvia again. Many of these rare photos are
published here for the very first time.
Sylvia’s photos are among the best of
Stan Shuttleworth’s late color series.
Sylvia at the University campus again.
Sylvia is resting at a well in a
churchyard.
Each of Stan’s original photos is worth
as much as 50 Dollars and more nowadays.
Almost completely enveloped in her hair.
Mary Tucker
at a reunion session in the late Seventies. She has still her great ankle-length
mane. By the way: because Mary is quite tall (5 ft 10 in or 175cm), her hair
looks really long.
Another rare shot from
this last session.
Mary, an extraordinary beauty even in
the sunset of her life.
There is a fine memorial site at “The International Longhair Club” by Dave Tichenor. Look there for more photos!
She was among of Stan’s last models in
the late Seventies. Stan Shuttleworth died on October 29, 1983 at 67.
