She's Baaa-aaaaack...

Man, it's been wild around the studio! The last two weeks have probably produced the most shoots I've done so far. And the best part: no flakes! Knocked out shoots with four models on Saturday, with assists from The Masquerade Belle and Shon D's new wardrobe styling division.

The Country/State Pride series has new additions from The Philippines (Yes Gomez-Xiang), the Soviet Union (Juelles Chester), and the U.S. state of Maryland, represented by Isis King (pictured). The Roman Deities series has another addition: Ceres, goddess of the harvest (portrayed by Tasneema Hakim). I also whipped out the Nifty Fifty and shot some journalism-style shots behind the scenes of a 40Three shoot, with LaTonya Winters doing her thing with the brushes.

It's getting fun. Cool models, ideas coming to life, better lighting techniques. But I'm not satisfied. I'm still trying to step my game up. Still trying to get better. Still looking to the top. The summit. Still climbing.

Shooting, Shooting, Shooting

Man, I'm beat! I'm supposed to be asleep, but I'm not, and I'll probably pay for it tomorrow, but alas it's ya boy, SunArcher. And man I've done a lot of shooting this week!

After shooting my Romania piece for Country Pride, it was time to get back to building the book. And I wake up on Saturday and who's visiting 40Three Studios: Virginia photographer Shon D and ANTM's Isis (both pictured). Hmm...can you say SHOOT?!

Got some good shots with Isis, along with DC models Melanie Blue and Mizz Jaye. Fashion fashion fashion, with the assist from my 40Three shooting partner, makeup artists The Masquerade Belle and LaTonya Winters, and stylists Shon D and Tres Urban Chic. Check out sunarcherphoto.com for some of the new work, including tonight's shoot with Jenise once the pics get edited. It's gonna be FIRE!
