Dear Mike,
I recall very well your run-in with Kizu a few years ago.
I also have the two newest DVD's of Yulia.
Truth be known, both of these are from the 2003 to 2004 time frame.
The more video he comes out with, the more visual markers there are to coordinate the actual video date.
If you recall, he made NO videos, in 2003, just cups and minihand bags and such!
But during that time, he went to Moscow I estimate about 6 times, many trips in the summer.
I am sure he still has mounds of video and thousands of stills of her in his archive.
How or when, he might release them, only he knows!
As for seeing Yulia at 25 or 26 years old, that may not be possible.
For various reasons, I think she quit modeling sometime in 2004, remember he had a "rememberance party" in her honor at his studio in Japan, in 2006.
She got her teeth fixed, but had a huge problem with a "lazy eye" in the Autumn DVD.
You can imagine, how difficult it would be, to make a video and have almost no control over your eye movements!
Yulia blinks and shakes her head, thruout the Autumn video.
I is very sad for me to watch her deal with this problem!
As you know, some of these model's looks, go down hill very fast, after 21!
Look at Katie Konec, making a "comeback" at 25, she has not aged well!
Yulia seemed to be holding up well, in the few years, she modeled, similar to Roberta Pedon.
Money is the primary driver for most of these models & with the current economic crisis in Russia and elsewhere, Yulia might be persuaded to make a few hours of video for a very high hourly rate!
I am sure her photographer is trying to do just that, but when and if we will ever find out, is a big guess...
Regards,
Rich
