Binghamton, NY - September 2011

I am slowing down with my travels as this year comes to a close, and going to be in only a few more states and locations. Of course, this is all relative as my concept of "a long time," is about a week or two in a city. :)

Chattanooga, TN - October 2011

Look, ma, I've got clothes on. Well...almost.

I have spent the past week in Mexico with a group of art models and photographer as part of a yearly event called "zoefest." There have been an abundance of naked, beautiful girls running and the proportion of talent and art making has been equally as high, as each model here is highly creative and talented. I have enjoyed seeing my friends and making new ones, creating art and socializing, but after a week I can easily say it is time to go home.

hotels

Hotel, San Francisco, CA - 2011

I am a believer in using hotels as a convenient and good shooting location. All hotels offer some basic backdrops for shooting, and depending upon the hotel, can provide anywhere from a basic to a grungy to an elegant location to shoot in. There are often ample lamps around for available light shooting, or a few lights from your home or studio can transform a hotel into your own studio for the duration of the shoot.

And if a model needs a place to stay while in a city, she's usually happy to make use of the bed after the shoot.

Tarzan

Maryland, Nudes In Nature Event - September 2011

Crisis averted. I am traveling in my usual manner - with only a modest sized suitcase. However, I appear to have neglected to bring several key clothing items I generally live in. I need to keep busy modeling so people don't realize I only have about one set of actual clothing. :)

I ended up working with two photographers from Houston when at the NIN event in Maryland - these photos are from one of them. I found myself climbing a tree and balancing on a perhaps not so stable limb (sometimes I may think I am Tarzan) and climbing onto a pile of sticks and twigs because I was drawn to the texture (and I wondered why I was a bit scratched up).

The big one

Photographed by Rick Ochoa

Brooklyn, NYC - September 2011

I am packing for warm weather and cold weather. Clothing to wear when not shooting and wardrobe for shoots. Lacy, pretty clothes and shiny, clunky heels. Some things are clean and others stuffed in a bag awaiting laundry. Clothing for the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere. This is an excessive amount of stuff.

As much as I hate it, I have deemed this the time for my large suitcase. Oh how I detest the thought of dragging this massive bag around and feeling like a typical girl.

Birmingham, AL - Spring 2011

With access to a location like this, it seems scandalous not to create a somewhat racy series.

Arty, moody, elegant, pretty, textural...these qualities I like.

baseball

I have been warned watching baseball can be dreadfully boring; with my laptop and emails to send, I can never be bored.

Brooklyn, NYC - Summer 2011

I have a story to tell about a girl who went in for a Texas State Car Inspection and left with a stick in her tire and soon after found herself with a new tire. But I'll leave you with this possibly equally as controversial an image.

Red really is a good color.

Me

Brooklyn, NY - Spring 2011

Although I am usually photographed with my big mane of hair down, on a daily basis I tend to keep my hair rolled up in a bun. I really love this photo of me - the bonafide real me.

Just Because

Mission Beach, Queensland, Australia - September 2010

I now own pants that fit. A small, but impressive step towards being a human being during the fall.

Stepping ahead

Photographed by Jamie Hankin

NYC, NY - September 2011

I followed well given advice and stayed in Asheville and extra night, driving down to Atlanta this morning instead of in the dark of last night. My body is happier, but without coffee I might be sleeping right now.

I am always a step ahead of myself. Today I commence my Australia travel notifications, and that is both a whole month and a half and only a month and a half away.
