13th Ritual (Patreon)

Wooo, it's the first Friday the 13th of 2023! Anyone getting a celebratory tattoo or piercing from all the fun specials? I got one once: the kitten and moon behind my right ear.

No get-togethers or other festivities for me tonight, I think. After the crazy mess the end of the year typically brings in, I've been enjoying this week working from home, barely leaving the house.

This photoshoot, if you recall, is from October of last year. It's definitely a session I'll try to always remember, as it's one I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of, even though it was cold and I was shivering the entire time. The results from this session are really inspiring to me, from the posing of us in groups, to the colors, to the styling... it's all, to be lame, such a vibe. 

Ava's work in general has become a big inspiration for me on both sides of the camera. I'm thrilled I've gotten to work alongside her a few times now and gain a sneak peak into her process. 

Which shot is your favorite? 

Stay safe if you're partying tonight!
