Intuitive improvisation - The creative process is such an interesting one at times. A little inspiration turns into an idea that turns into another idea and then another idea. I share with my creative buddies and next thing I know we got the place, the model, the clothes and the set - but I can’t see the makeup because I don’t know how I’ll feel until I see our model in the bubblegum pink wig I painted the night before. Or how she’ll look on the pink set @catiemenke made all because I told her I want to do pink. And I definitely don’t have a clue until I see her in the looks @daniakassab styles her in. I didn’t know how to answer any question @catiemenke or @daniakassab ask me about the styling or color or vibe etc. I didn’t have time to plan properly, I just wanted to be there and make art. I felt so blind on set but then I started to feel it and the rest just happened on its own. Fun lil edit @desertwillow.studio

How I planned, shot and edited this shoot ✨ I wanted to capture everything that goes into bringing a creative vision to life—styling, hair, makeup, and of course, photography. This shoot leaned into the raw, in-the-moment energy that happens when so much talent comes together. A lot of the imagery was taken from a behind-the-scenes perspective to celebrate the process itself. I decided to edit the final images in black and white, stepping outside my comfort zone to explore something timeless and dramatic. Also…my first-ever voiceover on a reel! Do we like? Should I share more of these behind-the-scenes breakdowns? Would love to hear your thoughts! 🖤 Photography: @catiemenke MUA: @daniellevirginianastasi Hair: @antestradahair @castsalon Wardrobe Styling + BTS Video: @daniakassab @desertwillow.studio Models: @allthingsvenus @emilynteague Location: @parkwoodphotographystudios

For my latest mixed media project, I wanted to merge my love for photography and mixed media in a unique way. Using printed images from a recent shoot, I incorporated them directly into Mary’s look (with @daniellevirginianastasi ’s help of course!) to create something that feels raw, dimensional and alive. This process was so fun and experimental—it reminded me why I love pushing creative boundaries! Also, the full on squat cracks me up—thanks for capturing @daniakassab !
