Brian Keith is a photographher that is based in NYC although I know that he moves around quite a bit. I am a model with one of the top agencies in New York and did a shoot with him. He is a test photographer, however I think he is doing some magazine shoots now as well. If your agency tries to send you to a shoot with him DO NOT GO. He tried to get me drunk (I was 17), made passes at me, and tried to keep me from leaving his apartment. My friend also shot with him and he also tried to get her drunk and blocked her when she tried to leave, pushed her against the wall and tried to kiss her. She shoved his arm off and ran out. My friend and I both testified against him in a rape case. He was not convicted because the girl was too scared to take the case any further, however the detective told both me and my friend that he believed Brian Keith to be guilty and that the medical evidence made it very clear that he was guilty. Right after this happened, Brian left the country and as I heard has just recently returned to New York. My agency sent a girl to shoot with him recently and she came back from the shoot very upset and said that he made her very uncomfortable and tried to kiss her. She is 19. My agency is very disturbed by all this and wants to take matters to the police. They will no longer work with him. This man belongs in prison. PLEASE tell your agency that you will not shoot with him and to not let ANY girls shoot with him and that if they must, they need to bring a parent or guardian or someone from the agency with them. Let's try to make sure he can't do what he did to that girl (and I'm sure others) ever again.
