My second shoot of the day on my last day of shooting in Cincinatti was with Right Brain Photography, who had been at the workshop the day before. We shot again at Red Door Studios. At this point I was very comfortable at that venue, after being there 4 or 5 times, which I always appreciate at a shoot.

The shoot were very smoothly, and practically everything we shot ended up as a set on Zivity. 🙂

On my last day in Cincinnati I started out with a shoot with Len Kaltman. Shooting with him was wonderfully laid back and enjoyable.
We shot an abundance of creative looks that spanned from casual jeans and a tank top to a flamenca dancer!

He uses a lot of his images on stock photo sites. Some of the nude image sets that we shot are available for purchase via DeviantArt and are available for commercial uses.
You can check out and purchase a set of nude fairy-like poses here.
And you can check out and purchase a set of standing nude poses here.

I hope to work with him again in the future. 🙂

More photos on my various sites!

Just a few days after the first glamour and art nude workshop I did (which you can read about here), I did another! And it was just as awesome as the first. It further enforced my opinion on how awesome the group of photographers are in that area are, and how I’ll absolutely be taking part in more workshops/group shoots there when I visit again. 🙂

These are the photographers that attended this second one:
BAM Photos
Bryan Art
GoodMark
House Of Evelyn Photos
James Rybolt PhotoArt
Joanne Thompson Photo
Paul T Reke
Right Brain Photography

I got photos back from all of the photographers involved and a lot of them are really great! These are only a couple, but there are more on my various sites. 🙂

After my shoot with Jerry Schlagheck I had an impromptu shoot with House Of Evelyn Photos in the epic, spooky cellar for a kickass set on Zivity!

You can check out the set on Zivity here: Chelsea In The Cellar

I can’t wait to go back up to Cincinnati to hang out and shoot again in the basement. 😛

Jerry Schlagheck and I first met at the awesome workshop I did 2 days before, and it led to a great photoshoot at Red Door Studios on my 3rd day in town! We hit it off and were almost laughing more than we were shooting. 😛

We started out shooting upstairs on the black and white studio backdrops, and ended downstairs in the super creepy cellar. It was great!

Here’s a behind the scenes video from our shoot together. And, as always, more photos on my sites.

If you follow me on other pages you’ll know that I’ve been getting more and more into photography in addition to my modelling. My father and grandfather were photographers, so I grew up around it. I’m engaged to a photographer. And I work with them constantly. When I was little I actually started out wanting to be a photographer, but as soon as I saw the costs of equipment I kind of gave up that dream. However, I am now a photography major and am really enjoying it.
Although I haven’t shared much of my work, I’ve been shooting regularly. 🙂
I won’t be creating any new pages for my photography, so if you’d like to follow my photography in addition to my modelling, you can find it on my various sites. 🙂

I’ve been a fan of Gary M Photo‘s work for a while now, so when he contacted me about working together when I was in the area of course I jumped at the chance! We headed up to Dayton for the day and spent hours creating beautiful images.

We started out at his studio and did some nude work on the various walls and on a mattress in the natural light through the windows.
Then we headed to a wonderful location that was essentially an abandoned attic. I don’t know how long we spent there, but the amount of awesome that was in the space was infinite. I could have shot in there for a week and not run out of ways to utilize the space.
To finish the shoot we headed back to his studio and did some elaborate rope work that incorporated some locks and an odd metal piece (it kept reminding us a little of the Slave Leia bikini, lol) and shot on the walls in there and in the freight elevator of the warehouse that his studio is in.

There are only a few shots in this, but there are a TON of shots on my websites and portfolio. There was just no way to fit them all here, lol.

Gary is an amazing photographer and I cannot wait to work with him again!

A couple of updates. 🙂

1. I’m engaged!
POPP and I got annual passes for Christmas and I decided that our first visit would be an epic weekend starting on Valentine’s Day! Little did I know, he was making plans on his own and in addition to an amazing weekend at the parks, he proposed to me in a candlelit hallway in Hogwarts at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. I am so happy to be spending the rest of my life with my best friend. 🙂

2. I have a new online store!
I have opened a 2nd online store. I have one on my website here for prints, and I will be continuing to use that one. My new one will be used to sell one-of-a-kind instax shots and limited-edition prints. You can find my new online store here.
All instax shots that are purchased will be mailed out asap and will be signed and kissed before being sent to their new home with you!

3. I’m currently in the process of picking out dates and exact locations for my summer travels.
If you’ve followed my work for a while, you’ll have noticed a pattern that I usually save my big trips for the summer, and this year is no exception. Last summer I went on a 2.5 month tour of the East Coast. Instead of doing one really long trip, this summer I’ll be doing 3 shorter trips. I’ll be hitting Atlanta, Washington DC, Texas, Portland, and some other cities in between.
So, keep an eye out for that info!

4. Custom sets.
So far this year I’ve had 2 surgeries, a concussion, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Unfortunately it’s caused me to fall behind on custom sets (shooting, editing, sending out, etc.). I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to them, so I’ve not wanted to just send out sets to fans that are only sort-of good. However, this week I have been working constantly on custom sets for people, so I should get caught up to them soon! 🙂 I am so happy about that.
If you’d like to get a custom set of your own, there’s info about it here. And you can see examples of my custom sets for people throughout my port. 🙂

The same day we left Tennessee, we headed all the way up to Cincinnati and I modeled for a wonderful workshop at Red Door Studios, run by Shad Ramsey. And even though my car decided to break down mid-way through Kentucky, we were still on time! (Amazing, right?)
Now, I usually avoid workshops and group shoots at all costs because they are incredibly stressful, but this one went off without a hitch and was wonderful! Even if I decide to never do another group shoot/workshop again, I would always make an exception for this group.
If you are a model travelling through, or a photographer in the area, I would definitely recommend getting involved with this studio. Everyone was amazing!

These are the photographers that attended the workshop:
140 Photography
FUN2DRV Photography
Jerry Schlagheck
Iris Photos
John Yung
Tom Oliver

I got photos from all but one of them, so that was pretty wonderful! No one was rude, or even sort of impolite. I was incredibly comfortable the entire time. I wish I was closer so I could shoot with the amazing group of photographers that Shad has assembled more often!

Of course these are just a few images, but there are many more on my various sites.

After Atlanta, POPP and I headed up to Tennessee! We stayed with a good friend of ours who has become a designer of really adorable accessories. Naturally I was more than happy to model her designs. Actually, that’s putting it lightly. I jumped at the opportunity and kind of begged her. 😛 I also got to make a bracelet with her!
So here’s some shots of me modelling designs by Kaibutsu’s Closet!

Go check out her Facebook here and her online store here. 🙂 And, as usual, there’s more shots on my various sites.

And we’ve got some more of her great designs, so you can be sure that you’ll see more of it!
