Carolyn at Seward Park
What a bootylicious babe! Carolyn is always such a pleasure to work with and I'm so happy she wanted to work together again! This set was shot at Seward Park in a secret little nook we found. We thought it would give us plenty of coverage but unfortunately many people stumbled upon us and made s...
Theresa
I've already mentioned how our shoot came to be, so I don't think I should repeat that part. But I think I should add again how amazing of a model Theresa is and how she was able to work in the windy conditions we were hit with (even though it doesn't look like it). I love this little fi...
Stephanie at Alki
WHOOO! First post open to the public! This shoot with Stephanie was mostly by accident. One of my fav photogs, Justin Swain, was in town and we met up a few nights before this shoot for drinks. He mentioned to me that he was planning a shoot on Monday and since I was free that day, I could tag along...
Me by Carolyn Jean
This was such a fun shoot! I finally got to meet up with Carolyn since we last saw each other back in February. We met up at Seward park and tried our best to find these secret little spots where we could shoot. People kept on stumbling upon us and making it hard for us to be secretive but I think w...
Vancouver Rooftops
This shoot was one of my favorites with my boyfriend John Nguyen. I've been trying to teach him how to shoot portraits and I'm so happy with how far he has come. These photos were taken on a rainy morning in downtown Vancouver overlooking Granville St. Our airbnb had rooftop access and while...
Amber Part 2
This is the second set from our shoot. We made our way from her house to Discovery Park in rush hour traffic (which took way too long as always) and found a quiet little spot hidden away to take these beautiful photos. The sun was just starting to set which gave us the perfect lighting for our shoot...
Amber Part 1
Oh gosh how do I even start with this?! I finally met this gorgeous gal that I've been following on Instagram for a while and have been so mesmerized by her big eyes and red hair. Amber is a such a sweet person and I'm so happy that we were finally able to meet up and have such a great shoot...
Pure Rebel (Kristy Jessica)
This was my second time meeting with the lovely Kristy but the first time we were able to shoot. She came over to my apartment on an April afternoon and we were able to use some lingerie that was sent to her by designer Christal Sweets. The tulips she's holding in her hand was the one bunch I bo...
A day with Nova
I've been waiting to receive this video and the wait was definitely worth it!! I was going to post it for June as a set of the month but I'm too damn excited to wait! I teamed up with a videographer who used to go to school with me and he tagged along on my shoot with Nova Amour to capture t...
Sleepy Vancouver Mornings
This set was taken during a trip to Vancouver with my boyfriend and sister to celebrate my 19th birthday in the bars up north. The beginning of this set was when we got back from drinking in the bars and were ready to pass out around 2 in the morning. The other photos, the nice light filled ones wer...
Pixie in the Quad
Pixie is such an amazing gal! I was supposed to shoot with her back in July during my trip to Portland, but it ended up being too crazy of a schedule to fit the shoot in. I posted a note on Instagram, saying I was looking for models to shoot at the Quad at UW in the cherry blossoms, and she drove up...
Walking through Oneonta Gorge
This shoot was so absolutely difficult! My initial plan for the day was to walk through the gorge and shoot at the falls, but upon our arrival to the destination, we realized we chose an absolutely horrible day and time to do this. It was a sunny Thursday, which during the week we thought it would b...
Carolyn Jean + Lembas Jewelry
Carolyn and I had a quick little shoot in our airbnb right before we checked out and made our way to Oneonta Gorge and the coast. We had some jewelry from Lembas that we incorporated into this, hopefully to be used in the future on the website. The choker and long necklace are both available on the ...
Gen
Geneieve and I have been trying to shoot for forever now! Our schedules have both been so busy and free time sparse but we were finally able to get together after I think almost 2 years. She came over to my apartment on a fairly sunny day and we were able to shoot a total of 5 outfits. We definitely...
Model Party #1
Holy crap. This day was sooo good. I met all of these lovely alternative models for the first time, after following them on Instagram for a long time and being enchanted with the work they had created. All of the ladies were so comfortable with each other and got along so well. It made the photos so...
Salina
Ooh this shoot was so much fun! Salina contacted me on Instagram saying she needed new photos for her portfolio as she was recently signed to a new agency. We met up at Seattle University (my alma mater) and she brought her boyfriend with (she thought I was a guy..) and wandered over to the quad. We...
Witches of Sedro Woolley
First let me say that this is one of my favorite shoots. I had such a blast working with these three amazing ladies (Carolyn, Megan, and Mary), and creating a story line. They were open to exploring all parts of the dairy farm, and making my first shoot here be the reason I keep on coming back again...
Discovering with Emma
I found Emma while scrolling through Instagram, looking for cute models that I wanted to take photos of. I found her on a friends page and fell in love with her look, especially her adorable bangs. She thankfully agreed to a photoshoot at Discovery park on a beautiful sunny day. After class let out,...
SG Brona at Sedro Woolley
Brona and I used to go to high school together, and although we didn't talk too much, I was so ecstatic when she contacted me for a shoot to submit to Suicide Girls. We ventured up north to Sedro Woolley, and made our way over to the barns to start our session. We chose to go with a grungy punk ...
Autumn in July
So funny story: the only reason I ended up shooting with Autumn was my photographer friend Mark Laubenheimer needed a place to shoot. My old apartment used to have blank white walls and a large window that let in some gorgeous natural light. I told him he could use the space while I studied for my R...
Kristina Elayne
Oh wow! This was a long time ago!! Kristina and I used to go to school together, she was a senior while I was just a wee baby freshman. Fast forward four years later and she had asked to take photos of me, and a few weeks later we reversed roles and I took some super fun photos of her. We shot at he...
Model Party 3
This was the second model party I had attended, hosted by the lovely Diana Jean (pictured above). I rushed to her place after work, still in my scrubs from the hospital, in order to make it in time. It was amazing seeing so many individuals doing what they loved and working with like-minded individu...
Erica Leong Part 2
This shoot was my second time shooting with the lovely Erica. We ventured down to Golden Gardens and played with smoke bombs that my friend Sean was kind enough to light for us. It was such a sunny and busy day at Golden Gardens but it was so much fun working with these different little tricks and b...
Shae
This set was taken last year in January when I went down to Portland for the weekend. I met up with Shae in her apartment downtown, which had so much natural light and such a great vibe to it. We shot a mixture of her and my lingerie, and used some of the trinkets and decorations she had, like the b...
Remy at Discovery Park
Remy found me on Instagram and wanted to book a boudoir shoot with me to use for promotional items since she is a Hot Import Model. We met up at Discovery Park on a sunny winter afternoon. We shot in the main area of the park a few outfits and then made our way to the beach and lighthouse. We defini...
Stephanie Part 2
This second time working with Stephanie, I took the ferry over to Bremerton and we shot at a park that she frequented by her house. We hiked for a little bit to all of these secluded waterfalls and climbed into the freezing cold water. She was a champ in posing in these conditions and definitely kne...
Stephanie at the Armory
This was my first time shooting with the absolutely adorable Stephanie (yokorose). She took the ferry from Bremerton and we met up in downtown Seattle and made our way to the Armory. It was my first time shooting here and I absolutely fell in love! Stephanie was a little firecracker, going through p...
Volunteer Park Conservatory with Rhylie
These photos are from a quick little shoot in the conservatory with Rhylie. This was one of her first times modeling. I met her at a show and thought she was just the cutest thing ever so of course I had to tell her I needed to shoot her! We met up and had a pretty good day staying warm inside this ...
Rianna
This shoot took place right after my shoot with Justin Swain at the armory. He invited me to his shoot with Rianna (a Hooter's girl) that needed swimsuit photos to submit to the Hooter's calendar (in the middle of February hah!). So we met at Golden Gardens and I was able to capture a few sh...
Megan
I drove down to Des Moines where Megan used to live for us to shoot. It was a rainy day but I made it over without a problem. We shot in her apartment, with her pets who were so friggin cute running around us. Afterwards, the rain let up for a little bit so we made our way down to the private beach ...
