The Desert Adventure

This morning I had the honor of collaborating with Theresa Maria in Moab, Utah. I couldn't think of a more fitting way to kick off (our final) The Desert Adventure. We are wrapping up our midday siesta before heading back out for an evening shoot. I'll be sharing what we created with you tomorrow. Enjoy this sneak peek, for now. XO.

Photosensualis in Woodstock

I just arrived in Moab, Utah last night for the final Desert Adventure. I logged into Patreon to see these gems posted by my dear friend, Photosensualis. It wouldn't be right not to share with you all as well! These were photographed some years ago in Woodstock, when both Photosensualis and I were living in the region. Enjoy. ❤

Some bonus images, including 3 more intimate shots, shared with a special few, because they would not be appreciated for the right reasons by the general public. Taken by Rick Poston in Minneapolis.

The Desert Adventure

As I gear up for what will be my final run of The Desert Adventure, I thought it appropriate for you all to have the first look at these gems. This set was taken by R.Yokomoto during our spring session. Eva Luna was my accompanying muse, and it was our best TDA yet.Liv is joining me this fall, and I look forward to another epic adventure before hanging it up for now. We will still offer private TDA photo tours on select dates to those interested....

In the Meadow *extended set

These were taken by Exhibit Photo PDX in a beautiful meadow during golden hour after a full day of shooting in three spectacular locations. He was experimenting with different lens babies, which is why the images have some blur. We started calling this set "Vintage Playboy," because this portion of the shoot felt very reminiscent of 70s Playboy.Enjoy! XO

Tonight.

Hello & happy September.Thank you to everyone who are still logged in as we approach autumn.I hope everyone is having a safe and happy Labor Day weekend.Tonight, I'll be posting more from this meadow set, taken by Exhibit Photo PDX in Portland, Oregon.XO.

Sleight of Hand

You're the best kept secret I've ever knownComing undone at the lies you have sewn You just wanted somebody to bleed for youFor everybody you thought to be deceiving you Trustless to that bleeder Who needed youTorn open the vessel, now you're all aloneCause you've broken something you noLonger own.Paranoia has corrupted your soul straight throughStudying me to find integrity in youWith your knife at my neck, you beg me not to dieI...

Sacred Bath

This is about as erotic as my work will ever get. I do not pose this openly for most people, and I certainly do not share my most sensual works with the public.Oh, and a bonus color image for you. Photosensualis very rarely posts any work in color. Photographed by the wonderful Photosensualis.

Sacred Bath

Wisdom written on my slate,Once starved with hunger.Thirst, parched with wonder.Now I've too much on my plate.If I should take another bite,I would lose my appetite.But I've already sealed my fate..And it's too late.So release the hate,Feel about serrated edges,Reel around the spaded dredgesOf a long awaited escape..Spill out the jaded and faded message,Losing it's behated shape,Of the celibates' celebrated pledges;As many com...

At the Pool w. Evyenia *bonus outtakes

Some fun moments in the pool.One of the biggest misconceptions about me is that I take myself too seriously.Anyone who knows me in the real world knows that couldn't be farther from the truth.I like to share these little outtakes with my premium patrons to set the record straight.Enjoy!(Photos by Eric Alter)

At the Pool w. Evyenia *full set

In honor of my recent shoot with Evyenia, here's the full set from a fun series in an abandoned school house pool. Taken by Eric Alter. Enjoy :-)

Twilight in the Forest

Shot by ExhibitPhotoPDX. June 2019.

Silly Outtakes

Since I shared some images from my first shoot with Evyenia, I thought I'd show you some photos that simply didn't work, but are enjoyable if you have a sense of humor.Our photographer, Eric, wanted to try shooting in this abandoned auditorium using body stockings. As you can see, some concepts clearly just don't work out the way you imagined. Evyenia and I tried to make it happen, but we spent a lot of the time giggling at the absurd...

Evyenia

Today, photographer Eric Alter and Evyenia are taking a trip down from NYC to my cottage for a full day shoot. So it only seems right to post some images from the last shoot we all did together. This series was shot in an abandoned school house. I'm honestly not a huge fan of shooting in abandoned buildings or overly urban settings, but I'll admit this was an exceptional location. XO.

Curls - Photosensualis

Here is a sweet little film Photosensualis made from a shoot back in Woodstock, NY.Password: CurlyCurls838Enjoy ;)

Lush Oregon

Apologies for the mega late post. My wifi isn't working and I'm working from my cellular data, which is slow going. Bear with me!Here is a bit from my shoot with Exhibit Photo PDX. Oregon is truly one of the most gorgeous and lush places I have ever worked. I look forward to returning.

August!

Just a quick note to say THANK YOU for keeping with me and WELCOME to my newcomers. My Patreon is slowly but steadily evolving, and I'm grateful for your patience as I shift into my next chapter. Not only are patron perks evolving, but so is the Patreon platform. They're finally putting work into this website that give artists more creative freedom. I'm looking forward to sharing more with you.This summer is flying by, and I'm jus...

Shameless Millenial

I never share stuff like this. But I saw my reflection in this beautiful bathroom and felt like taking a quick shot. It will never be shown anywhere else, so I thought you might appreciate it. ❤

Eye Contact

Some bonus self portraits for my bonus peeps. Are you interested in seeing this set in color? Let me know!

Early Morning Vanity

Self portraits in my sun room.7/25/19

This Morning

I was so inspired after sprucing up my little sun room yesterday, I took some self portraits this morning at 7AM.I had to finish and submit my articles today, because I will be away for the weekend, so I was not able to edit and post the full set tonight, as planned. Over the next two days, every tier will have a little something special from this set.Here are 3 for my $1 patrons, just cause. ❤Thank you.

A Peek Into The Cottage

July has been a crazy month. Being a shore town, it's the busiest month for the newspaper. I'm happy for the work, and it allows me to engage with interesting people often. I have a roommate moving into the spare room in my house, so I've been doing a lot of cleaning and reorganizing.I also have a full day shoot in my house next week, so I've been trying to make a simple and elegant space to work in that is a little different from...
