@vauntastic and I were traveling on such a shoe string budget back then that we felt compelled to shoot anytime we splurged to sleep not in my Saturn Ion.
Would ya'll like it if I queued up a photo a day thing from my archives of old work?
I'm going through past series, and things like that, and realizing there is literally no where left online that you can see about 8 years of my work. I feel like it could be cool. Plus you'd still be getting full sets of current work.
I'm having so much fun looking through all of my old shoots with @vauntastic
This is from the boiling pots my first trip to Hawaii, and what we both consider to be a massive turning point in our work. Shout if you remember this one from the Zivity days!
Before I had really figured out what Temperance was going to be, and the many ways I could actually use the space I did this shoot with @itsjessedanger. I still love how these images came out even though they didn't end up in the book. I was still in a different mindset for how to shoot and light when I did these, so they weren't cohesive in what ended up being the series.
The wardrobe and posing though are just phenomenal.
I remember the first time I worked with @VividVivka once upon a time. I was on my way to Chicago, and stopped in Detroit just so that we could create. We tore her entire apartment apart, to take what ended up being 2 or 3 photos with a random deer horn. We've since reconnected so many times all across the country from remote peacock infested beach towns, to weirdly lit hallways in apartment building basements, but I'm just so proud of our work.
I can't wait for the world to return to some semblance of normalcy so we can reconnect.
I so rarely shoot with @vauntastic indoors, that I nearly forgot about this set, and video I had taken of her in our living room a year ago (two years ago?)
I debated over and over how to process these photos. This was the day I knew that the fires were going to cause another shutdown for me. @duckfanaccount and I had been planning this shoot for a little while, and this ended up being the last of my true summer shoots. The air quality was still moderate, and we hadn't reached the point of being warned to limit our outside activities, but the entire field smelled like standing inside a bbq. My initial photos were so orange, and so contrasty due to the smokey haze, that I actually switched to a soft focus technique just to minimize some of the incredible artifacting.
I won't lie I was panicked. I've shot with a ton of gels, incandescent lights, even fire, and I know that you can only push an image so far when color correcting before it starts to fall apart.
I wanted to make this shoot work, I wanted to keep some sort of proof of what was happening in my life, but I also wanted to create amazing images for her as well.
I think I found the balance in the toning. I still feel stress when I think about this day and the ones that followed. It felt like our world was on fire. We got evacuation warnings only a few days later, and I had to pack up all of my things in anticipation of fleeing, and not knowing where, but at least we were able to create something lovely before it all got to be so bad.
The origins of Temperance came as Journey to the End of the Night was finished. Only a few photo sessions happened here, but this one with @hennanueller was one of my favorites.
Sorry for the delay everybody I've been working hard all week, and accidentally took a nap today! But alas @dahliadatura and @zizinakie for Fauna is here!
Working with @mal_x_butcher was absolutely amazing. Her posing among the ferns underneath my favorite tree was absolute perfection! I hope ya'll are excited to see us work together more because I can't wait to see what our future collaborations bring.
For now here is Part II of our shoot for The Jungle
Thank you thank you thank you all who supported my mini campaign! You can still tip $5 to get this as a downloadable!
But we've unlocked the rest of my incredible shoot with @kaylacoyote and @jet_jaguar for Fauna. I hope you all love it! If you do let me know in the comments below <3
I think the best way to talk about this video is to let Nicole put it in her own words
"Girl Bullying 😈 'I think we should tor*ure them some more," I said to Noire Blue, after tossing Fiona Sprouts' adorable little self onto the bed. My hands were already warm from spanking her, but they itched to redden their other cheeks. "I want to make them cum." I'm drawn down into Noire's devious gaze and oh-so-soft lips as I dangle our chosen weapons over our victim: handcuffs, of course, and a metal wand I can't wait to use. Fiona gasps, "This isn't tor*ure..." "Oh no?" I say, smirking. "Hold them down while my fingers go to work...." 💦 Ah, this scene was TOO. MUCH. FUN!! I think we shot for 2 hours straight, and I could have shot more- they both tasted so, so good 🤤 This 24min. video features lots of making out, me fucking Fiona with my fingers, mouth & toy, tons of mutual masturbation, and ends with me cumming on Fiona's gorgeous little face' ❤️ Enjoy… xoxo, Nicole"
