Damage is done
So, I'm totally obsessed with The Walking Dead. Creepy things are awesome!! While having a friend over today I attacked her and begged for her to let me zombie her out, at least look completely mutilated. I had a blast! The commit she had with curving her body plus the "ugly" faces LOL. Doing anything that does not feel natural especially in front of a camera is nerve racking.

Sunken Love
All kinds of looks inspire me.
I recently ran across what I thought was a genius photograph. I did not find out who the model or photographer is but, mucho mucho kudos!!
Skulls do not always represent evil. It's the bases of all of us. The mystery behind bones is insane to think of how we function.
Being inspired I dove head first into my makeup, playing and covering all I possibly could. I've created skull looks in the past but, it seems every time gets better and better. I'm sure one day I'll do a full head to toe piece...Enjoy!!!

What a wonderful name. What made you decide to start your photography business?
Thank you!
It was scary deciding to open my studio and doing photography full time, but I'm so glad I chose to run (not walk) down this path. I owe all of my thanks to three dads, two Bruces, and a coin toss.
Bruce #1 is my father, who's last wish for me before he passed in 2009 was to pursue photography. Hearing the seriousness in his voice and seeing the burning assurance in his eyes when he said, " Now Frenchy, (there's a funny story to that nickname, call me and I'll tell you about it) you have to promise me something. You have to promise me you will pursue this. You've got too much talent not too. " is something I will never forget. After that I made sure I set small goals each year to get myself where I am today.
Bruce #2 is my best friend's father ( coincidence on the name? I think not…) He presented me with an opportunity last October (opening the studio in a shared space) that was the answer I had been searching for. Even though I knew in my heart it was what I wanted, what I was meant to do, my head was unsure. It's scary depending solely on the unknown, and I had just received a well paid, secure job offer. It was not, however, in the photography field. So there was my predicament - do I pursue my brightly colored dream, or settle for the secure, yet mediocre?
Now enter the coin toss. I couldn't make up my mind. I deliberated for a long time, spoke with family, made up my mind, changed my mind, made it up again, and changed it again. My Dad, Clarence, (technically my step-dad, but he's so much more than that; step-dad does not even begin to describe what this man means to me) after listening to me talk myself into and out of the studio all day pulled me aside and said, "You know what you want, but to make sure, do you want to toss for it?" He pulled out a huge coin, I called it in the air, and haven't looked back since. It's been a tough road, but it's been brightly lit and can say I love going to work each day. I'm very grateful for everyone that has helped and supported me!
where do you call home?
Wherever my family is :) We are currently living in bustling Belton, TX.
What inspires you when you're behind the lens?
Laughter, music, and a very special make-up artist ( wink-wink)
What do you have to offer the Belton Community?
Along with amazing portraits, I create for each client an experience that they wont find with chain stores. I welcome clients into my studio as if they were family, and probably treat them better (hehe). My sessions are full of laughter and goofiness and in turn I get rewarded with not only amazing repeat clients, but new friendships. I value everyone I work with and make sure they know it!
I also offer basic camera classes for ages 7 and up, and an advanced lighting class for experienced photographers at my studio.
What do you specialize in?
Being Awesome. Duh.
Oh, and Family, Senior, and Wedding portraits ;)
Ive seen your publications in 35 Central? How did it feel when you saw your first issue?
Are you kidding? I'm still jumping around like a fool! It was a moment of *finally. I'm getting there* (Isn't that magazine awesome?)
Who is your favorite photographer/artist?
My tastes change throughout the years, but Brooke Shaden has been my object of affection for a while now. She creates surreal moments that tug at your emotions and wonder. They're what dreams are made from, or vice versa.
What inspires you most?
Real people. Music. History. Laughter. My kids.
When you're behind the lens what exactly do you look for to capture the best photograph?
It's all about the light. And the emotion. Emotion through color, pose, facial expression, etc... but with out the proper light, you've got nothing.
Out of all your photos in your portfolio which is your ultimate fav? Why?
That's like asking me which one of my kids is my favorite. Shame on you.
Can you give us a preview of what we have to look forward to from you in the future?
As I grow, so will my work. So check back with me in a few months and we'll see what has changed!
Right now I'm working on vamping up my Senior Rep program, which will include some serious perks for participators, and brining in more Boudoir/stylized sessions. I am giddy when a client tells me she felt like the most beautiful person in the world after a session with me and my style team (wink wink Miss B.A.D.) Being able to provide that for someone is elating!

Miss Mosh 💓💋
Since I first became interested in makeup and portfolio work I found a odd character who was just breaking into the scene. I use to explore Model Mayhem and the good ol' social network MySpace. The beauty's name was Mosh, she had amazing dreads and could twist and tie her body is the most amazing poses.
Inspiration comes in all shapes and sizes, for as long as I can remember mine has come from this 5'3 beauty.
Miss Mosh as she addresses herself now is a alternative model. For those who do not understand this means she has dipped her toes in fetish, latex and burlesque. Last trip she made to Austin broke my heart to not attend. Maybe one day...
But, I thought I would open my book of ideas and share some of what insures me!!

Just breathe
This is one of my favorite photos I captured thru my lens. Both people mean alot to me and with all of our creative minds we ran with endless ideas.
The concept was a woman removing a mans life with one single inhale. We create them so destroying them should be as easy as a breathe. His charming face has real tattoos, his soul is very eccentric. Even with the intimidation that people receive from tattoos. He had a soft heart.
My sweet Alia dear friend of mine who I created into a amazing mini me. This woman has been side by side with me through all my transformations in life the highest highs and the moderate lows. When your as awesome as I, who needs lows? Back to the subject she was a gyspy woman who's death had come. Hints the skull?
Crazy times and a photo that always has a moment in time I can recall.
