Day two with Valkyrie + Fox. The place I was staying actually had two bedrooms so we used the second bedroom for this set. Fun moment: when they were standing up facing the windows, they noticed a group of construction workers off in the distance. For a brief moment, the two of them entertained them, …
This was a fun set. I actually bought the wigs and lingerie Valkyrie + Fox are wearing at the end of February for an Easter shoot that the three of us had talked about doing. Of course, the pandemic put the kabosh on that. So it was nice to do something with them finally. Really …
I was grateful that this was one of my last shoots in Columbia. I like shooting in the world outside of wherever I’m living and wasn’t doing it nearly enough during my time there. To have found this place right before I left was fortuitous. And Mo nailed it.
Like the Under the Lights series, I shot a second edition of Sheer with Rachel specifically to get rid of the distraction of the mirror. Really like these.
The only model who I shot the same sets over and over with. I know why I shot the second under the lights with Rachel, but don’t know why we shot it this third time. Oh. Now I remember. The mirror was too much of a distraction, I felt, from the second set of this. …
Had Rachel back in specifically because I wanted to do the Under the Lights shoot again in daylight. Because daylight is, in the parlance of our time, my jam.
Cannot stress enough how great sheer sheets are for implied nudes and nudes. I had used it with M once already. Rachel and I did one more shoot after this but I’m still on the fence about publishing any of those because it was basically just this shoot done completely over and I think this …
What is this? Didn’t you already shoot an Under the Lights set with M in that exact outfit? Yes. And I brought her back in to redo this set because I completely goofed the first set. Somehow, I had moved the focus point during that shoot to some far off spot and blew about 300 …
One of the better ideas I had was shooting with a sheer sheet. Still would’ve been nice to shoot M with it outdoors in a field somewhere.
After the “fiasco” with the black panties not really covering M, I bought another pair that I thought would work better. They worked just fine. 🙂
The last shoot that Care and I did while I lived in Columbia was at this abandoned bar that was completely destroyed. Had a stage for performers that was the focal point of the bar and this shoot. Shot around one in the morning and knocked it out in just over 30 minutes. This is …
Second set with Rachel from our first shoot. I typically like to shoot during the day to work with as much natural light as possible but our shoot started late in the day and ran into the evening. As we neared the end of this set, there were a couple of shots that really nailed …
This was Rachel‘s first professional shoot. Ever. And the first set with Rachel was the Mid-Century Casting Couch. I was pretty invested in this concept already, the end goal of which was to have twelve different models shoot on it. Rachel shot really well. Totally a fan of that strawberry blonde hair and her complexion.
Another concept I had wanted to shoot. This was actually going to be a big production and had hair and makeup people on board for the shoot. But planning went on way too long and so finally, one night, we just went out and shot it. The BB&T building made an excellent backdrop, with it’s …
A shoot solely focused on Care‘s tattoos. It’s always a fun time shooting her and this shoot was no different. There’s some great video from this shoot.
This was fun. It was fortunate that M‘s hair was as long as it was at the time we shot since we were shooting implied nudes. What was less fortunate were these particular butt-less panties. Butt-less panties look great on M. But these particular panties kept riding up in front while we were shooting turning …
The second bicycle shoot with M was a mostly fashion shoot out in the same park where I shot Julia. M is, honestly, just gorgeous. Such a fan of hers.
M has such a great ass. I mean, I love everything about her as a model: great eyes, great facial expression, she poses wonderfully, but her butt is awesome. So buttless panties were a reeeeeally good look for her.
Had purchased this piece for shooting and thought it might work well for M. I think it worked just fine. 🙂
The first set from the first shoot with M. I always tell models before shoots what I’m planning for us to shoot (as well as giving them guidelines on styling and wardrobe). M was comfortable shooting implied nudes so we shot exactly that with this great bike I have. M nailed it. Shot in the …
After Care came over with M that one night, I knew I wanted to shoot M again. So this was our first shoot. She was awesome. It’s always interesting shooting two models together to see how they’ll both interact with each other and with the camera. In this case, Care very much took the lead …
After the Black + Yellow set, Care and I stepped into my ridiculously small kitchen for a quick set of her in just the yellow gloves and boots. Although it’s a pretty brief set, these are some of my all-time favorite shots of Care.
This was a fun night. The gloves are just some cheap drug store dish gloves. It would’ve been nice if the yellows had matched perfectly but the hell if I’m going to spend hours in photoshop making that happen. 🙂 This was the night Care came over with a couple of friends, one of whom …
Following the All Natural Larry I set, we abandoned the studio vibe and moved to a familiar setting.
Care came over with her stuffed friend Larry who she doesn’t go anywhere without. (He’s been hanging out in the car the times we’ve been shooting.) No makeup and wanted to do an all natural shoot. So we did. First against the studio backdrop and then on the bed. This is the first set against …
This was fun. This was entirely Care’s idea and it came together pretty much exactly how I thought it would. The “blood” was a mixture of food coloring and corn syrup and I want to say chocolate? In any event, I love these shots. One of my favorite sets with Care.
I bought this red coat for a particular model and we never ended up shooting in it. Mentioned it to Care and so we did a few quick shots inside with her wearing it. Still have the coat. I need to find the right spot. Still, love the shots of Care.
This was our third shoot together and I had already realized, going in, that Care was most definitely the model I wanted to shoot for a while. Something from my early days (with Madison Scott) that I wanted to get back to was incorporating mirrors. Not a decision I regret. At all. The (massive) full …
Kind of a last minute thing after the More $ shoot with Care. Had a concept I had been wanting to execute but it wasn’t quite working in this space (the stairwell in my apartment.) Still want to shoot it but need to find the right models and right locations for it.
