“Gold and Guns”

Taige was incredible to work with. We definitely vibed during the shoot and he definitely knows which angles flatter him. We were chasing the sun and losing light very quickly. Working with Taige made me realize that it’s okay to break the rules sometimes. Prior to shooting with him I always preferred soft light; hard light was always a “no, no”. Now I know better. When you’re not getting any better or feel like you’re in a rut, you owe it to yourself to work with models who will take your photography to another level. Taige is a beast!!! I’m so happy with what I took away from my experience with him 😃

I was in awe the entire time I was shooting with Ghrase. The title “So much Ghrase” fits so well. She’s confident, beautiful and flow poses with ease. I barely had to direct her at all. Certainly more of a collaborative effort. I was a little intimidated by her because I had seen her portfolio prior to meeting her. I played it smoothly of course lol. She’s a prefect example of a higher tier model. Someone you can learn from. I’m really looking forward to shooting with her again. She’s amazing! •
