Ashleigh Zombie and I have been trying to get together for a shoot FOREVER. I mean really, its been years. One thing or another has always gotten in our way and we finally made it happen a few weeks ago and I was pleased with the results. It was what I call a "test shoot" meaning, I didnt have a plan for what style of lighting, dress or theme I wanted for the shoot. (I guess the standard term for this would be poorly organized, but I like my term better.)
I would also like to add that I LOVE shooting curvy woman who are comfortable in their own skin. I love working with any model who is comfortable in their own skin, because you get a particular "sass" that can only come from a sane amount of confidence in ones own body. But being that I am a curvy woman my self, I have a bit of a personal attachment to the creativity that comes with photographing chubby women.
Ladies and Gents, Ashleigh Zombie. Thank you VERY much for working with me Doll, I am looking forward to our next shoot.

Vicious
Lady V is one of my favorite people to work with - yeah, I play favorites. Everyone does.
We've done two recent-er shoots and I have been a slacker recently so I have not posted them, but here we go.
Shoot A:
These were my favorite 2 images from this set.
Set B:
Since we've met and began working together this woman has grown into a photographer of her own. She says I helped her get started...and it warms my heart to hear that because I have always wondered what I was going to do to "repay" the man who helped me get started(other than obviously, doing well myself)....and I guess my answer is here in this girl, I inspired someone else to follow their dream. Shes doing very well and I am very proud of her. I think we've started to mesh together creatively as well, we are starting to inspire each other to do better, grow and go farther. It is my humble opinion that the best food for a creative mind is another creative mind. And of course the passion to pursue.
