Good evening, Hive! I’m horizontal in bed after a busy day, not the least of which included an 800 calorie burn during kickboxing. Lots of other dumb grown up stuff, and a few hours in between working at . The WordPress rabbit hole is getting deeper and I’m becoming happier with the results. All in all, the time we’ve all spend since being back in Minneapolis after the drive to Pennsylvania and back has been nice. The routine is back. I’ve had time to see friends like
,
and
. I can’t complain, especially after the last two years.
I have some new photography to share with Susan Starr. I met Susan during the same modeling workshop that I was a guest photographer for during Viva Las Vegas. There was a total of 13 models for an all day, all inclusive invent that included make-up, wardrobe styling, pose coaching by Cervena, photography by me, and hair by my longtime friend Lizette from Silverscreen Vanity. Susan was one of the final shoots of the evening and ultimately, a bit of an adrenaline rush nearing the end of a 12 hours day of shooting.
Susan knew her body and how to pose. Cervena has hosting many of these modeling workshops and I recall hearing that Susan has participated in most of them. Definitely not surprising because she took a commanding presence in front of the camera. She and Cervena posed for a few dramatic dark pinup portraits, but when Susan was on her own, it was quite the spectacle for everyone present on set. The background and design of the space was the perfect compliment to Susan's vibe.
This is the last edits with Susan Starr. Tomorrow, I’ll be making my way to in the afternoon to edit the remaining photos for the last clients that were photographed during this event. I’ll be doing something of an expansion set, specifically from Viva, with
to support the Dark Pinup collection on WAX, so these photos need to be done soon. For the rest of the night, I’ll be drawing in bed, trying to finish up some
art. Thanks for reading. Have a great night, friends!
