Admin reveal. Shot of me very tired doing a last minute build, for an editorial, that would end up not getting shot. Sad how many things we make that often never get used or see their day in print.

More late posts for the @karolg by @elizavetaporodina for @complex it felt like the whole studio wis filled with buddies: stylist @brettalannelson Hair Stylist @joerirouffa Makeup Artist @kalikennedy snakes by me and the team. Little bit of trial and error with making the snake candle to wrap around the wrist but figured it out eventually. Was great fun passing down the monster making techniques to @aydannova who helped put it all together.

Excited for Sunday. Loved working with Benito. Having the production come to PR creating business and commerce for the island. Blessed to have been a part of it. It’s so easy to feel like you’ve out grown home, and so beautiful when someone can find ways come back support and embrace where they’re from. @dazed @theo___liu

2025 was the year of @karolg for me. It started with the album cover with @pedro.artola and @briannalcapozzi and only went on from there.

I have a lot of anxiety around posting things. Whether it be, largely, cause of the state of the world, the ick I get from social media or the fear of not tagging someone or any other unintentional slight that could come about. But here I am. At least I can slightly amplify a voice for creativity and beauty. I feel so lucky I get to work with so many beautiful, creative, kind and talented people and @timwalker is one of the gems in the world. Along with @chappellroan and @saramoonves and @genesiswbb just to name a few others that fall into that category that I had the pleasure to work with on these photos for @wmag I might have forced a pair of 5’ caterpillars into the concept for my own added creative fulfillment Photography: @timwalker Styling: @genesiswbb Editor in Chief: @saramoonves Visuals & Content Director: @_a_b_g Creative Directors at Large: @kevintekinel @charleslevai Writer: #LynnHirschberg Hair: @mustafayanaz Makeup: @1800andrewdahling Manicure: @nailglam Set Design: @nicholasdesjardins Prop fairies: @rhea_thierstein @sophielincolndesign Production: @weiliwang83

Bad at posting good at sets :) anyone who knows me know that this shoot by @petrafcollins for @i_d magazine is a concept after my own heart. From my love of the @therialtoreport to the work of @barbaranitke to the baseballcard swapping-esq relationship I have with @erotic.books.unlimited , I was just sad this shoot was only one day.

This was a lot of finger pain cutting this massive stencil for a shoot. Couldn’t let it go after. Stuck it to the roof of my studio where I forget it lives and ever once in a while I remember and look up and enjoy memories of hand painting the colors late into the night with @hello_neosha . I’m so lucky to get paid to make things. I would be making things either way, but the range of objects I’m asked to make is so vast and varied, it feeds so many parts of my brain and soul.

I wish I could say I had a bigger hand in the look of this shoot of the fabulous @thegirljt for @i_d by @petrafcollins but it was all Petra I just brought a few things to the party and some bubbles to the location. Her ability to find the shot and make it hers is better than anyone. Also @thegirljt always looks stunning but glam team absolutely killed it on this. styled by @jenny.shoo.pumps Hair by @hairassasin Make up by @kalikennedy Nails by @tiny.luxury produced by @themorrisongroup Retouched by @inkretouched

Another fun one with my buddy @elizavetaporodina of @arianagrande for @vogueitalia I always love to see her creative wheels turn some “confetti” each piece made by hand. somewhere between bubbles and mermaid scales. And a backdrop or two. Styled by @maxortegag Hair by @gabork_mua Make up by @manthony783 Nails by @nailanatomy Lighting by @josef_beyer Produced by @tcreativenyc Retouching by @inkretouch
