As they gear up for their reality show on MTV, Three 6 Mafia is making their rounds and their latest stop is at PlayBoy.com.
The Memphis, Tennessee duo hit Playboy's Santa Monica studio recently getting behind the cameras for an after-hours photo session as celebrity guest photographers.
Juicy J was the first to get behind the camera and was full of compliments and outrageous praise for his gorgeous model, Playboy Cyber Girl Jennifer Korbin. He said he wanted to capture the entire experience, painstakingly shooting the grips and makeup artists in the background and even giving everyone on the crew a nickname.
DJ Paul took a more deliberate approach to his photo shoot. With his camera mounted on a tripod, he took one shot at a time before re-posing Jennifer and repositioning the cameras and lights for his next shot.
Three 6 Mafia joins a long list of celebs who have become Playboy.com's Guest Celebrity Photographer for a day including Nelly, Outkast, DMX, Ja Rule, Carmen Electra, Jenny McCarthy, rocker Tommy Lee and Korn frontman Jonathan Davis.
The pictorials shot by Three 6 Mafia, plus behind-the-scenes photographs and steamy video from the sessions can be seen only in the Playboy Cyber Club, Playboy.com's subscription site.
