Julie - Sucker Punch - Throwback
Back on November 16th of 2017, Julie and I put together this epic set in homage to the character “Baby Doll” from the 2011 movie “Sucker Punch.” When I first worked with her I knew she would be perfect for the cosplay of this character. Her eyes, nose, lips, hair and of course body made her a perfect fit. This is the first time all 80 of these images can be seen in one place. Why 80, well because she had a flawless face and body. The only editing was spent on lighting. I used my Canon EOS 7D Mark II to capture these images with a Canon 50mm lens. The composite image was done by my studio partner at the time Juan Cruz.
Shelly - Black on Red
I photographed this beautiful Indian, (Shelly) on the 31st of July at HTX Studio 409. This was the 1st of the 3 sets we shot that day. It’s always easy to capture her beauty and incredible curves. I used my Canon EOS R with my 35mm Sigma Art lens. Lighting for this low key set up were 2 Godox SK400II studio strobes with 14x63in stripboxes, both were angled toward one in front one in back.
Ayla - Mask
Sorry, I thought I posted this set months ago. This set of images were taken May 29th at HTX Studio 409. What do I do when I get beautiful facial features, long silky hair and damn near flawless skin? I cover it with a black lace mask. I knew Ayla would be a perfect candidate for my mask series. She’s very glamorous and captivating. For this lighting set up, a Godox SK400II with a 33” Octagon softbox was used with a 67” x 24” clamshell reflector to light her under her chin.
Heather - Xmas Flashback
Even though I haven’t work with this lil’ woman since last year, I still have quite a bit that I haven’t posted of her. Here’s our Christmas shoot that took place a year ago yesterday, December 3rd 2019. My camera of choice was my Canon 7D Mark III. I believe the tree lighting set up was a Godox SK400II with a 33” octagon soft box. On the white I used a 60” Octagon softbox as the main light and 2 Godox SK400II studio strobe with 14x63” stripboxes to get the pure white background.
Joanna - Schoolgirl
On August 2nd of 2020, I hooked up with Joanna at HTX Studio 409 to capture these schoolgirl images. She produced some great images as usual. The lighting for this set up was simply a Godox SK400II studio strobe with a 60” Octagon softbox. For the later images I turn the octagon toward my white wall and bounced it back. My camera of choice was my Canon R with my 35mm 1.4 Sigma lens.
Madelyn - Mirror
This set of Madelyn was taken June 3rd at HTX Studio 409. This Pretty lil’ woman was back in town for a few weeks before she headed back to school so we had to get together to create some great images. The other sets we shot were also on point. This set was taken using my Canon EOS R with a Sigma Art 35mm f1.4 lens at 1/160 sec and f2.0. OI used a one light setup, a Godox SK400II with a 60” Octagon softbox.
Ayla - Blinds Shadows
This set of images were created May 29th at HTX Studio 409. This was a spur of the moment shoot with Ayla. She was downtown and I was doing anything so we decided to meet at my studio and see what we could create. We followed it up the next day with a shoot outside at the park and museum, which will be posted soon. The lighting set up for this set was a Godox SK400II with no modifier to the camera right of the blinds.

Amanda - Dance Dress
This set of Amanda was taking at HTX Studio 409 on March 23rd this 2020. As usual with Amanda this was a great set. She did her hair and makeup and we got plenty of images to work with. The low key atmosphere gave us a nice moody vibe. The set up for this images were 2 Godox SK400II with 14x63in stripboxes on each angling in toward Amanda at 45 degrees from both sides. Gels were added later in the shoot just to add a little oomph to the images. (50 images)
