Chi - Net Gown
Chi and I took these images at the Leslie Studio on January 8th, 2025. We aimed for a moody, 70s-inspired vibe, so we created the set with a vintage lamp, an old radio, a retro box TV, and a paneled wall adorned with a framed painting. To complete the aesthetic, we dressed her in a fitted net dress. I shot these images with a Godox 60W LED light as the key, and an 80W GVM RGB light panel to complement the ambient light from the lamp. I used my Canon R5 with the Sigma Art 35mm f/1.4 lens to capture these images, with settings at f/1.4, 1/100s, and ISO 400.
Tamahtzi - Gold Elegance
Kicking off my 53rd season of life with a glamorous studio set featuring the amazing Tamahtzi, (8-26-25)! I had the pleasure of meeting her at a fashion show in March and knew her elegant look would be perfect for this kind of set.
For this set, I used a 4-light setup:
Key: Godox AD600 on a 42-inch Glow beauty dish
Fill: Godox AD200 on a 25-inch Glow beauty dish
Backlights: Two Godox MS300Vs with strip boxes
Camera Settings: f/9, 1/125 sec, ISO 100 on my Canon EOS R5 with an RF24-105 f4 lens.
Saige - Pink Swimwear
On February 22, 2025, my studio hosted a content day for Models of Texas. Although I was initially there as a host, I ended up helping to capture some of the beautiful models. This set of Saige was shot using my Canon R5 with an RF70-200mm F2.8 lens. The lighting setup included two Godox SK400s with 48-inch strip boxes as fill lights and a Godox DP400III-V with a 7-inch octagonal softbox as the key light. The camera settings were f/9, 1/100s, and ISO 100.
Daisie - Fishnet Stockings
05-07-25, I had a shoot with Daisie, where she wanted to express her emotional side. We worked together to create a series of images that beautifully blend vulnerability with a sense of quiet sensuality. I think she did an incredible job of conveying that emotion, and I’m honored to have captured it.
For this session, I used a Canon R5 with the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. To shape the light, my main light was a Godox AD600 inside a Glow Deep Parabolic modifier, with a Godox AD200 in a 25-inch Glow beauty dish for fill. My Camera settings: f/8, 1/400 sec, ISO 100.
Kendra - Lil Black Dress
On June 4, 2025, I photographed Kendra in a form-fitting black dress. Her long hair and legs really made the outfit pop, and together we created some beautiful images. I started the shoot with my standard three-light system: two Godox SK400s with 4-foot strip boxes and a DP400III-V for the 7-foot Octagon key light. For a low-key look, I then turned off the two SK400s and used a single Godox AD600 with a 37-inch Glow Deep Parabolic modifier. The images were captured with my Canon R5 and the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 lens.
Kristina - Drinks
On May 24th of 2025, Kristina & I were scheduled to meet at the Houston Museum to capture some images walking around but we got the time mixed up and would not have made it in time. Instead we headed to Ruggles Black, a Paleo Keto Friendly Restaurant in the River Oaks area. We caught up and conversated on future endeavors then captured these cool images over a few drinks.
KJ - 2 Piece
On May 16th, 2025, I photographed KJ for her comp card, specifically focusing on swimwear opportunities with this set. These images highlight her impressive figure. I shot with my Canon R5 and the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, using settings of f/9, 1/100 sec., and ISO 100. For illumination, I relied on the Godox DP400III-V paired with a large 7ft Octagon softbox.
Chi - Ladder
Captured these images of Chi in January at the Leslie Studio. I utilized my parents' old wooden ladder as a prop, finding its aesthetic well-suited for her long legs, and opted for a semi low-key lighting setup. The key light was a Godox AD600 on a 42-inch octagon, with a Godox AD200 on a 27-inch octagon providing lower fill. Shot with a Canon R5 and the RF70-200mm f/2.8 lens at f/9, 1/100 sec, ISO 100.
Railey - Black Stockings
Talk about turning a 'bad luck' day into pure gold! These images of Railey, shot on Friday, June 13th, 2025, are easily my favorite set of the year so far – and I've had some really strong ones waiting to be posted. We absolutely crushed it, capturing so many incredible moments that choosing what to edit was the hardest part. My gear for this session was the Canon R5 paired with the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. For lighting, I used the Glow EZ Lock 42" softbox with my Godox AD600 as the key, and the 25" softbox with my AD200 for fill.
