Sébastien came across my work from the photos that I did of Nicky back at the end of January and gave me a follow on Instagram. When I needed to do some light testing to re-create some new skills I learned last week, they jumped at the chance to get a few portraits made.
During our session, Sébastien gave me some lessons on the catalog of Erykah Badu and brought some great ideas to the table. I’m going to have to do some more experimentation with lace and veils and the overall idea of being hidden. Thank you again for taking time out of your Saturday to come to play in the studio.

Brandie - 2021.
The weather outside is starting to get cooler, and soon enough the leaves on the trees will all be on the ground instead. The spooky season will be here before we know it (even if we do have to go through second-summer first). It used to be that Halloween was my favorite time of the year, but these last few years have just been wearing on me and I just haven’t felt in the spirit.
I guess it’s time to change that.
Brandie replied to an Instagram post where I was looking for someone to work with, and even though we have worked together in the past, this was the first time one on one. I honestly didn’t know what to expect when she said “I’ll just bring a few different things”, but I certainly didn’t see myself getting the chance to shoot something with some witchy-feels this early.
I’m not complaining. I’ll just be over here humming “It’s the most wonderful time of the year” (because we all know that even though every day is Halloween, most of us weirdos only get 31 days to enjoy it.

CharLee Cherie - 2021.
After months of work I am so terribly happy to actually have a studio space to work out of. I’m even happier when I say something like “Hey, do I know anyone with a ball gag?” and several people reach out to humor some strange ideas floating around in my head.
This was the first time I’ve really been able to use my space to its fullest and even though I had a few kinks (ha) I think I was able to troubleshoot them on the fly pretty well.
CharLee was wonderful as always, and aside from my laptop being on its last legs and it taking me longer to get these out into the world, I can’t wait to keep creating more content in this new space.
