Now, 2020 is not just a year out of a science fiction story. It was unbelievable real life.
Our team worked hard through the pandemic to bring you an issue that will educate, inspire, and ignite your visual senses. Each of our covers features unique, personal stories of raw insight and inspiration during evolutionary times of pandemic, racial turmoil, and change. While each story is unique, we all share in the human experience.
As we continue to navigate our way through the global pandemic and educate ourselves on the events of the past year—which, as you all know, have cast a harsh light on the systemic racism that has long infiltrated our society and infected creative industries at their core—we wanted to let you all know that Issue #6 focuses on the global pandemic, but also brings to the forefront of diversity and inclusion, and how we each must do our part to fight prejudice and discrimination.
Amidst all of the uncertainty, 2020 has presented an opportunity to pause, re-think and re-evaluate our society. We can build the world that we want. We are in this together.
As part of our core mission, Reserved Magazine maintains a commitment to bolstering women’s rights and safety. For Issue #6, Reserved pledges 10% of all proceeds from the Hardcover Collectors’ Edition sales to the East LA Women’s Center in support of their vital services. The East LA Women’s Center is the only long-term post-rape, human trafficking, and domestic violence help center in the United States, and has offered a safe space for women fleeing domestic abuse during the COVID-19 lockdown.
If we all band together and support what we believe in, we can create the world we want.
It has been a groundbreaking year, and we are proud to break new ground with Issue #6 of Reserved Magazine. We hope you love it as much as we do.

For Issue 4 we where honored to feature Maye Musk and Julianne Moore’s gorgeous daughter, Liv Freundlich, photographed by Helena Christensen.
RESERVED caters to the needs of those interested in an unconventional source for creative awareness featuring diverse talent from every corner of the globe. We dig people with a lot of bandwidth. Our aim is to disseminate quality content on anything and everything else that we and our readers fancy, that’s just the baseline. This issue was full of vibrant editorials from all over the world.
Issue 3 with the amazing Brooke Shields as the cover girl. The shoot day was her 50th birthday, so it made it even more special. Helena Christensen photographed Brooke. They have been good friends for many years, so it was a special bond between them. Reserved was a large magazine in the beginning, measuring a whopping 12 x 18 inches. It definitely turned heads when anyone saw the issues, and it was too big to fit on the store shelves. A good lesson in magazine design.
We had the honor of Mick Rock shooting the great singer and producer, iconic music producer Nile Rogers at his home in upstate New York. What a treat it was to see and meet this legend.
We worked hard to get the issues out into the world. In the new digital age, we at Reserved believe in print and how important it is.
Issue 2
This cover is very iconic of Helena Christensen. It’s all about the eyes. We wanted impact, and I do believe we did achieve this for sure.
This is an issue with some very iconic people like Peter Max, whom we had the pleasure of meeting at his amazing studio. We featured his piece “Yellow Submarine”. And the Dupont brothers, who were best friends with Andy Warhol and always hanging out at Studio 54. This issue is old-school New York with some amazing characters.
