Model Ruh'han Vargas Teams Up With Still2BigPhotos

Resident photographer Dennis Scales, of Still2BigPhotos, is always looking for new talent to feature for ShockerRacing. He recent met a beautiful and talented model named Ruh'han Vargas from Austin, TX. Mrs. Vargas had not previously heard of ShockerRacing but tells us, "Dennis contacted me with this amazing opportunity!" Ruh'han focuses most of her time on her modeling career and has not previously done any automotive photography. She does, however, own a 2017 Ford Mustang with the Ecoboost motor and a 6 speed manual! That's right, this gorgeous model loves to bang gears in her Stang!
Ruh'han grew up in New York, but her mother was in the military and relocated the family to Texas when she was 7 years old. "I have moved around quite a bit, but Texas is cheaper to live as far as economy and cost of living goes." Ruh'han tells us. She is now 23 years old and besides modeling, she is also a professional Makeup Artist. Mrs. Vargas has been modeling for about a year now and has been published with Elan Vital Magazine, and FA Magazine. I think it's safe to say that Ruh'han looks perfectly comfortable working with cars and bikes and we hope this isn't the last we see of her in the automotive world!
Dennis knew this photoshoot would be the perfect opportunity to pair this gorgeous model with the vehicle selection from his close friends, Tom and Cindy McCord. The McCord's and Dennis are the kind of family Dominic Toretto talks about in the Fast and Furious films. "They were the first ones to greet my wife and I when we went on our first car cruise," Dennis explained, "their welcoming personality, exceptional friendship, and amazing hearts make me fee privileged to call them my car mom and dad!" Both Tom and Cindy have been in the car scene for a long time, and they are well known in the Mopar community in Central Texas with their Hellcats. Cindy's Hellcat is a White 2015 Dodge Charger and Tom's is a Red 2015 Dodge Challenger. A typical date night for this pair is putting on the drag radials and taking both Hellcats to San Antonio Raceway for a night of drag racing!

The McCords also brought along their Harley's for the shoot. Tom's Harley is a 2017 Streetglide, and Cindy rides a 2016 Tri-Glide. The crew brought all of these vehicles out to Douglas Auto Sales to provide the backdrop thanks to Steven Douglas. "The shoot location gave me so many Cindy Crawford vibes. I always wanted to recreate her Pepsi shoot and that's what I felt like happened during this shoot." Ruh'han exclaimed.
