Happy International Day of Yoga.

Yoga has always been a source of peace, strength, and flexibility for me...both in body and in life. I’m deeply grateful for this practice and the way it continues to support me every day.

Sneaky Silence

Sneaky Silence

These were self-portraits I took at my home in Germany back in 2018

My newest post brings up something I find genuinely concerning...photographers purposely turning off the shutter sound on their cameras. As someone who’s also worked behind the lens, I know this isn’t a default setting. It’s a conscious choice, and one that ...

I’ve always used Patreon as a way to archive my shoots and keep everything in one place. A friend of mine from Germany—Frank—recently sent me these old photos, after I asked him to look through his old files so I could upload them here again.

They may not be anything extraordinary, especially since my modeling wasn’t as developed ...

Photographer: @caughtalivemedia

This is a general post. This post does not involve the photographer who took these photos.

I just want to bring up that when photographers reach out asking to shoot TFP (trade for photos), especially if the project involves nudity or something as intimate as body painting, I approach those req...

Tokyo

Tokyo

These photos were taken in Tokyo during my trip to Japan. David reached out to me on Instagram that he was visiting from Michigan and usually shoots fashion in New York. Since we were both new to Tokyo, I thought it’d be fun to explore together. We had lunch, wandered the city capturing shots that inspired us, and later had a mini photo shoot ...

These shots are some of my favorites from a recent shoot with Erek. I made the drive out to Snoqualmie, and it was well worth it. The area was private, quiet, and calm. The forest had golden light peeking through and in the photos, you can see just how small I look in contrast to the towering trees and vast landscape. There was someth...

About my last post — a little update!

My friend ended up responding, and things actually turned out even better than expected. He chose to use himself as the subject and created a self-portrait for the upcoming art show. I thought that was such a powerful decision. There’s something really impactful about an artist putting themselves i...

Missed

Missed

I really messed up today—I missed my alarm and ended up missing a photoshoot that was incredibly important to me. It wasn’t just with a photographer I admire, but someone I also consider a close friend, which makes it feel even heavier.

When I make mistakes like this, I tend to be really hard on myself. The regret hits hard, especially...

My Word

My Word


I made the decision to stop working as an entertainer at a gentlemen’s club, largely because of the ownership and entitlement many men felt they had over women. Boundaries were crossed constantly, and it took a toll on me—emotionally and mentally. What made it so difficult to walk away was the financial stability I had created for...

Pose Practice

Pose Practice

Just a few screenshots from a video — I’ve been practicing posing and keeping a record of classic poses that work well for my modeling gigs. I’ve always loved simple, dynamic, and timeless poses. What really elevates a pose, in my opinion, are the pointed toes, triangle shapes, delicate hands, and facial awareness. Those are the core eleme...

I often use this space to share my thoughts on modeling, photography, and the creative projects I’m involved in. It helps me keep track of the work I’ve done, the people I’ve collaborated with, and how I’ve evolved over time.

Not long ago, I reached out to @skyler.shoots.photo to ask if he still had copies of a shoot we did togethe...

Lately, I’ve been working with several new photographers in the Seattle area and have truly enjoyed creating unique and expressive work—some of which I’ll be sharing soon. Along the way, I’ve also had a range of experiences worth acknowledging.

Sometimes, everything on a shoot is completely professional. Other times, unf...

I tend to be pretty protective of locations when I’m asked to model and choose a spot. Over the years, I’ve discovered so many beautiful places, and I’ve learned the hard way how quickly they can change when too many people start visiting. It’s heartbreaking to see trash, graffiti, or even things like bagged dog poop left behind in place...

Humberto’s home studio was super convenient—he’s only about 10 minutes away from me. That day, I had my kids with me, and he was kind enough to set up a bouncy castle for them in his living room, which was honestly hilarious! My kids loved it! I had such a fun shoot and can’t wait to work with him again. The pink backdrop was perfect—i...

Even after all these years, Gabino always goes out of his way to accommodate my family. It’s a pleasure shooting with him. He knows my 3 kids and sometimes I have to bring them along on shoots - he’s been sweet enough to pick locations where they can play at the park while I shoot in the woods near by or when we shoot underwater, my kids wil...

Astrid and I carpooled to Seattle and had a lovely time working with Archis. The studio we shot in had a beautiful view of the waterfront, with a small balcony that added a nice touch…even just standing by the window brought a peaceful vibe to the space and made for some great photos.

Archis brought a suitcase full of his handmade bikini...

My Peace

My Peace

The spa was hands down my favorite part of the hotel stay. They provide cozy pajamas and slippers, and you head down to the spa carrying your towel. Before entering, you place your slippers in a plastic bag and store them, along with your pajamas, in a cubby—since the spa experience is done nude.

Upon entering, the first step is to wash ...

Art Nude

Art Nude

There are some pictures of me in here where I’m wearing a bodysuit and it was because we had to maneuver around people. All around I think we had an amazing shoot, managing to squeeze in some artistic nudes. I love posing nude with nature, it’s always brought me peace and to be captured like this is all I could ever ask for.

Thank you, @renegade.photo.studios for the wonderful captures.

I’m glad I brought my red dress for this occasion. Don’t really have much to say besides that we had a fun hike!

These were taken at sunset with a strobe at the beach. I met up with Minh, 15 years later! He used to be our photographer for Hooters, back when I was a Hooters girl. I thought a typical bikini shoot like we used to do for the Hooters Calendar would be a fun reunion.
We had fun until the sunset. A good time, like nothing had changed.

I love comparing my before and after photos. These kind of edits definitely take hours of work and I love that AI makes it possible for me to truly bring a vision to life like this.

This was a recent shoot I had with a photographer based in Alaska. He was visiting Washington with his wife for vacation. She waited in the car while we snapped some cool shots.

One of my model friends handed the model gig to me since she was out of town.

It was actually raining and windy, but that doesn’t bother me much. I love ...

Looking back at these photos from late June 2023, I wonder why I didn't share more. I'm happy to have these beautiful photos of my face. For a while I started hiding my face because I went through a critical stage... I was putting too much thought into it. Anyways, comparison really is the thief of joy and I can't compare myself to girls with ...

I recently took these with cvd.images/ Lucien.

He wasn't sure what to shoot that day, so I brought a few random props and we both agreed to do something with the plastic sheet. Sometimes I think even just standing there has a cool aesthetic...the simple pose gives it a bit of a mystery.

I didn't edit the last image because I wasn't that excited about that one, though I was hoping for a better result because the concept is cool.

I’ve been focused on updating my websites and fine-tuning my social media presence to showcase my work and attract new opportunities. Here are a few of my favorite shots—both my own and those by Marcus Klotz.

I’m ready to work with new photographers interested in shooting art-nude sessions in these kinds of natural environments.

I have been focusing on modeling rather than photography, because photography has high demand and the people demanding aren’t understanding of the amount of work it takes. I’m underpaid, under-appreciated or expected to do free work.It’s also the ownership people think they have over me when they do pay. The interaction becomes insensitive...
