(Damn that new photo setting can look pretty cool, going to have to play with that a little more on future posts)

I think the last time Ruby and I worked together it was for some graduation photos back in 2020, but certainly this is the first time she’s been in the new studio. She reached out to me a few weeks ago and asked if I wanted to shoot some content for a magazine submission and although I was slightly apprehensive because of some bad tastes in my mouth from years ago, I decided we should move forward and give it a go.

(Spoiler alert, we almost immediately got accepted for publication, and I hope to be able to share those images soon).

Although those images were the main goal, Ruby did bring along a couple of other looks that I can show you now.

Be sure to give Ruby a follow on Instagram, and if you are in the Atlanta area, find some time to see her live and in person.

“Framed for a crime she didn’t commit, Ruby escaped prison to take to the road. Committing herself to a life of sin, attempting to be a Vegas showgirl, and taking up with Marxist ideals, Ruby found burlesque as her new trade of tricks. Having traveled far across the country, she now finds herself in the old South, embracing her sexuality and her education under her new, assumed name. Part kitty cat, part devil, she is a tease here to please”

Coming up on a year ago now, Ruby Marx invited me into her home with one thing in mind. Self Promotion. We had a wonderful time creating a few different looks in a small space.

While in NYC shooting with Nina La Voix a few weeks back, I was reminded how good it feels to strip things back and just shoot. So I was extremely happy when I booked two shoots on the same day.

Ruby and I set out with the same idea in mind (even if neither of us told the other what it was) to create something that invokes the feel of vintage Hollywood.

Be sure to follow Ruby and see where you can see her in person. You are sure in for a treat.

Ruby - 2022.
