Jenn Brown: November issue exclusive!

After graduating from the University of Florida in 2003, Jenn Brown had every intention of using her criminology degree to continue to law school, until one day a friend asked her to fill in as a model on HDnet’s Bikini Destinations. That gig led to a series of hosting opportunities, and the rest is history. Now living in Los Angeles and serving as the only female correspondent on ESPN’s Inside the NFL, Jenn gives us her best fitness tips, career advice and Gator football predictions.

Check out some of what's in store in INsite's November issue interview with Jenn:

Now that you’re constantly on the road for things like ESPN’s College
GameDay, how do you stay in shape?
I try my best to get to the gym every other day when I'm on the road. I found these great exercise DVDs called P90X that have good 45 to 50-minute workouts. I'll just pop one in the DVD player in my hotel room, and that way I can at least get some kind of a workout in...

Do you have any career advice for anyone looking to follow in your footsteps?
I think any kind of experience you can get out there is so valuable. There are so many opportunities out there, from getting involved locally in the Gainesville news or the campus news and starting as an intern, which can be invaluable....

Do you have any favorite Gainesville haunts?
I always loved going to The Swamp before or after going to the football games. When you’re an athlete, you don’t go out as much as maybe the typical college kid because you’ve got a lot of expectation—being at practice on time, classes on time, all of that...

INsite Retro Barbecue Photo Shoot

One hot summer Friday last month, we threw a retro barbecue for some local models and caught the whole thing on camera. But it wasn't all fun and games -- the whole shoot had to go down in about two hours!

"It was just so crazy," says stylist Stephanie Granada, who had to somehow keep track of all the samples and accessories on the way from Scissors Salon to Cabana Beach (while the sun was going down fast!). Thankfully, she says, the models were really patient.

Stephanie and Sean collaborated on ways to approach a retro vibe that would still be appropriate for readers. "Shooting with modern clothes, models and technology and still trying to
keep the retro look we were trying for was constantly on my mind," Sean say. "I wanted
to do the best job possible because everyone's efforts were riding on my pictures."

Intrepid INsite intern Alex Martin gamely volunteered to pose with his friend, teammate Clark Burckle, with the models for our July shoot. Luckily, they were used to walking around in their suits -- they're both on the UF swim team and had just left practice to come to the shoot.

But shooting this many people makes things interesting. "Making this size of a group look good was one of the hardest parts," says photographer Sean Kelly. "One and two
people are relatively easy to shoot, but lighting, directing and positioning seven models was a first for me."

Photographer Sean Kelly got real friendly with the sand to get the best shot as the sun set on our July retro barbecue shoot.

"It was about 159 degrees that day, and I had wet sand on my hands, in my pockets, all over my cameras, and generally in places not appropriate to mention," Sean says. "After it was all over, we jumped into the pool and packed up and went home and drank a lot (of water)."
