There is something about The warm light That trims your jawlineAt daybreak.I long to be gilded in it,That sleepy, satin ribbon.It is a softness and safetyAlong the hard, bristled edgeOf masculine distinction.It is dangerous and invitingTo my tender skin.Such as the curious, divine lightShowering a glimpse of dimension uponThe rocky features of tall summits,Dimensions I could accessWere I brave enough to harness Myself upon them.Likewise, so flipp...

MonSekaa Desert Adventure

Having a moment in the sun with this sweet human.Thanks to Stephen Imbler for this beautiful image. This memory is dear to my heart.

Tribute to TerryAnn

"Blueberry"A poem for my sister.Written Dec 2009Your hair is blonde,Your eyes are blueYou look just like me,But I don't look like you.You know too much, little girl.I looked over you asyou watched the world Steeping in its cold disdain.You stood beneath and faced my fearsAnd you knew well beyond your years...Oh love, I'm sorry for your pain.I couldn't save you from the rain.I couldn't always hold your ears,I couldn't a...

Home.

Just arrived to Jersey (2AM eastern time) after an incredibly long, but condensed tour. All tucked into my truck bed :)I zig zagged my way across the country and back again. Kicked off the 2017 MonSekaa Desert Adventure with my 2 best friends, and had wonderful collaborations in a stunning landscape.I had the honor and pleasure of working with some incredible and legendary artists in legendary locations. I worked with some of my favorite people, ...

Rainy Day in Woodstock

Here is a shot taken by Photosensualis a couple of years ago in Woodstock, NY.This photo gives me warm memories of a place I once called home, but is growing more and more foreign to me.By the way... we also made a book. Have you seen it? It's beautiful, and I am so proud of it;http://www.blurb.com/b/7851689-monique-poet-muse

There's no place like home.

Just got under the blankets on the sofa at my mother's house in Virginia - 4:54AM eastern time.Made it just in time to unwind before seeing my sister graduate high school this Sunday.On my way back east, a dear friend met me in Denver, and rode with me through Kansas, St.Louis, and into Louisville.After a tremendously long tour, it was grounding to have his company on an otherwise very lonely drive home.I dropped him off at the Louisville air...

Sekaa - Myth of the Desert

Here is a little taste of a literary piece I am putting together based on an image series I shot of Sekaa during the Desert Adventure.This has been an altogether overwhelming, exhausting, anxious, and gratifying tour for me thus far. Every day has been filled with either shooting or traveling long distances. Thank you for your patience, as it has been difficult to keep the blog up to date with all this movement. However, what that does mean, is t...

BTS Weston Workshop

Here is a little behind the scenes snapshot from the Weston Workshop in Carmel, CA.Jennifer Jones, Nymph and myself posed together in this gorgeous tree in the Westons' driveway.Fun fact: that is actually Jennifer's head and Nymph's body.The three of us posed this morning for Kim Weston. He built an elaborate set, and we shot images inspired by Matisse paintings. It was a wonderful and creative morning.Will be posting in full soon.xox

This morning.

This morning from a truck stop somewhere along the central coast of California. I stopped around 230AM. Wrapped up in my sleeping bag by 3AM. Woke up to the stifling heat of the sun. By 730AM. Hard to imagine now, as I sit in front of the fireplace in a flannel and sweatpants.Just arrived to Wildcat Hill this afternoon to meet and greet the photographers for whom I will pose for Kim Weston's workshop. Gwen and I are settled in our little cabi...

Back in the web.

Just got in from PSPF with Sekaa. It was a wonderfully gratifying experience. Spending the next few days working on content for Patreon & catching up on email. If you're interested in booking me, let's do it while I'm on the web, before I escape.

Lady in the Stairwell

I took this shot of Sekaa this afternoon during our collaborative shoot with George Streng, who I am so fortunate to know.Palm Springs was wonderful to us. More on that soon. For now, we will get some rest for the drive to San Diego tomorrow. It will be my first time truly experiencing San Diego with Sekaa, who is my dearest friend and a true local. Looking forward !I'll spend the next few days sharing content with you, and then I am off to t...

Live from Palm Springs Photo Festival

Sekaa and I are modeling for Brooke Shaden's workshop here at PSPF. Though we are only on the schedule to model for the afternoon session, we arrived in the morning to experience Brooke's workshop. There is so much to learn.Through asking multiple participants to give one word to describe their initial reaction (thought/feeing) to a series of random questions, she then gave us these words: Bora Bora, pink, naked, boat, sunset. With these ...
