Title: Per Bernal leaving MD Magazine
Post by: Ron on October 23, 2013, 10:37:59 PM
From Per Bernal, who in my mind, is one of the top photographers in our industry.  His style and vision was different than others, and as a photographer, was quite impressed with many of his shots and more. His special pics will be missed in MD. It was fun watching him over the years at various contests and events.


"It's Official - I have left my position as Chief Photographer for Muscular Development Magazine, FitnessRx for Women Magazine and FitnessRx For Men Magazine. After 20 years with Steve Blechman, Elyse Kirsch-Blechman and MD I have decided that it's time to move on. I want to thank Steve and Elyse for the home they once gave me at MD and also thank all the bodybuilders and fitness athletes that I have had the pleasure to work with over the years for said magazines. I'm looking forward to finish a couple of private projects and also get some well deserved rest over the Holidays (no vacation yet so far this year), with the promise that I will come back better than ever in 2014"

I'll be honest, I've gazed upon many of his pics in md during my late 20s. That guy exposed me to mounds and mounds of male muscle.

Per's the best

MD is just a portfolio of his work - without him it's not the same magazine

I don't get the coleman hype at times.  His physique is ugly as shit in these poses. It just is.  Those abs are horrible, big thighs with no striations.  He is not as great as people make him out to be.
