Wishing a happy (belated?) birthday to @jessaraymuse.bsky.social! In our first session, I asked her to pose with the book she happened to be reading on her tour. I asked for the same thing again in our second session, and hope to make it a recurring concept. Happy birthday Jessa!

More "What a Model Likes" with Saturn Werde (@saturnwerde13 on IG) posing with my National Steel resonator guitar after I saw her receiving a guitar as a holiday gift last year. Full story and more photos on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/163459...

@rubykye.bsky.social in a "What a Model Likes" concept photoshoot: a "Gambler" theme crafted from a photo she posted as inspiration in her travel channel. I don't dare post these on that other place (which has locked down Ruby's main account). More on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/163447...

"What a Model Likes" with Saturn Werde (@saturnwerde13 on IG) proving she is a total baddie in multiple senses of that word. Full story and more photos on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/163083....

"What a Model Likes" with @natalieamari.bsky.social's photo shoot inspired by Erin Morgenstern's "The Night Circus." Full story of how the concept happened, why Natalie's outfit fits the theme, and more photos on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/163080....

inal Red, White, and Blue concept with @rubykye.bsky.social and @katsnowmodeling.bsky.social. Second photo is one of the rare times the idea in my head turned into reality in-camera. Full story and more photos on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/162401...

Still more Red, White, and Blue with Isa Gabriella (@isagabriellaaa on IG; not sure she's on BlueSky). Isa saw the flag bandana in my accessories bag and turned it into a top. Full story and more photos on my Patreon www.patreon.com/ShoshinPhoto...

Red, White, and Blue with @lilithjenovax.bsky.social, combined with the fedora concept. Lilith went conceptual with the colors (including her lingerie and heels). Full story and more photos on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/ShoshinPhoto...

Absolute Rock Star Krystal Kitten (@krystalkitten95 on IG) continuing the Red, White, and Blue concept photos this year (and proving she didn't have any other color-appropriate pieces to wear for this concept). Visit my Patreon for more www.patreon.com/posts/162060....

More Red, White, and Blue concept photos, with @katsnowmodeling.bsky.social and @rubykye.bsky.social, also to wish Kat a very happy birthday today! Full story and more photos on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/161826....

Recent photo shoots added a "Red, White, and Blue" concept in the run-up to July 4th. Here's @zoecwest.bsky.social's vintage pin-up execution of it; full story and more photos on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/161825...

This is a test of the Emergency Stop-the-Scroll System. If you did not Stop the Scroll for this Epic photo of Krystal Kitten (@krystalkitten95 on IG), something may be wrong with your feed or with you. This concludes our test of the Emergency Stop-the-Scroll System. Now back to your regular feed.

Wishing a belated happy birthday to @keiragrant.bsky.social! From our "Comfy Boudoir" session last year, where Keira was mostly responsible for set styling in addition to everything else she does. Happy birthday Keira!

What to do when you wanted to do dance photos with @lumenlore.bsky.social but the studio you wanted isn't available? The "Everyday Ballet" concept, where we attempt to add or find art in mundane activities. Like laundry (which was Lumen's idea). More on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/160717...

@anastasiamaye.bsky.social and Rachel Dashae (@racheldashae on IG) in a "Warrior Women" concept photoshoot earlier this year at Raccoon Creek. Plus, Anastasia in a mask that said, "You want to get Anastasia to pose in this" to me when I saw it. More on my Patreon - www.patreon.com/cw/ShoshinPh...

Wishing a very happy birthday to the wonderful @riahjolynn.bsky.social! If you like my work or working with me, you owe Riah some thanks for that because she was the first model I ever worked with and gave me the confidence to keep doing it. Happy birthday Riah!!

More with Kim Jay from a session last year, inspired by a post I saw just after joining BlueSky last April. The full story and details on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/159582....

One of my favorite things about working with Kim Jay (@modelkimjayy_ on IG) is that I can suggest "The Lingerie Avenger" and she'll go "Sure!" and make it better than I could have imagined. More on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/159291..., including her thoroughly awesome outfit choice.

After seeing a painting by Picasso at the MoMA, I thought, "I want to do photos inspired by that" and "@jessaraymuse.bsky.social will be perfect for it." She was. Read the full story on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/158797..., and see the other photos inspired by Picasso on the paid tier.

Wishing a very happy birthday to @collibrina.bsky.social! From a shoot last year; natural light and using colored backdrops on the wall for something other than their intended purpose, and then a photo where a mirror betrays her (but just a little). Happy birthday Collibrina!

Wishing a very happy birthday to the lovely @ivysublime.bsky.social! From our session last year when she visited Philadelphia. BlueSky gets a photo that might still be too spicy for IG. Happy birthday Ivy!

@haleyvalentiine.bsky.social's May the Fourth Comfy Boudoir shoot (which didn't start that way, but has been my go-to May the Fourth Be With You content so far). New May the Fourth content planned shortly!

Happy May Day to those who celebrate (except the United States because commies). Here's @katsnowmodeling.bsky.social's take on the "Woman at Work" concept. More on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/157083...

Spotlighting Liz Ashley (@thelizashley on IG) on my Patreon this week. Purple is apparently her favorite color, so I had to get her in purple lingerie for our second session. Visit www.patreon.com/posts/156874... to learn why I've concluded my one-word summary of her style is "unapologetic."

Also wishing a belated happy birthday to the wonderful @ayeonnagabrielle.com ! I've been known to say, "I like what you're wearing right now," to kick off a shoot, as we did here. I also like when there's a clear progression or a story to a shoot.

Wishing a very happy birthday to the one and only Liz Ashley (@thelizashley on IG). From our first shoot together, full story available on my Patreon www.patreon.com/posts/154949...

Quick post to note that @lumenlore.bsky.social has joined BlueSky so everyone go follow her because she's awesome. These were from our most recent session together last year, where I finally remembered to incorporate her love for coffee into the shoot.

Three favorite photos of Jes Ellis (@ganjajes_ on IG) from a workshop in 2024. It's the 1.21 Gigawatt smile in the first photo and the lovely implieds in 2 and 3 (even I wish the second had a bit more light on her face). More available on my Patreon at www.patreon.com/posts/154535...

Wishing a belated happy birthday to Marvy Mars (@marvymars_1 on IG). From our photo shoot last year in Newark. The sign in the first photo was a serendipitous prop that sent the exact message I think both of us could use. Second is Marvy's "fedora" concept.

Also wishing a belated happy birthday to the fabulous Kim Jay (@modelkimjayy_ on IG). From our last shoot together, bonus points if you can identify why I chose this jersey for her to pose with. Happy birthday Kim!
