Studio shoot with Merry

 

Merry is perhaps one of the younger models I've photographed this year, the majority of the people I've been working with are more middle aged. This is the first year we've worked together and it was a very productive shoot.

Studio shoot with Becky

 One of my dearest friends Becky passed thru STL on her summer road trip and I got the chance to photograph her in the studio. I've known her for years, since she was an undergrad at UWGB, but its only been since 2015 that she's modeled for me. 

I'm pretty sure that she does not pose for other artist and confident she does not in the nude either so its really a great gift to me that she has trusted me to use her in my work. I have more than a few friends that do that as well and I think part of it is the trust you build up over the years and the belief people have in your work.

First shoot in the main studio for 2020

 

It finally warmed up enough in the main studio to start booking shoots. This year it just worked out at Vanessa was the first person to do that. This was Vanessa's second year to work with me.
