Hello everyone!

I'm about halfway into my Bali trip, it has been amazing so far! Definitely getting some beautiful photographs-the one above is of Kristy Jessica, which I took my first morning here. 

I'm trying to think of where to start. I landed in the Philippines on my way here to a pile of texts from the other girls on the trip (they were on a separate flight), and Lillias got turned around at the border! She had a passport issue and they wouldn't let her enter the country. That is truly every...

250k bonus!

I just reached 250,000 followers on IG, so we're celebrating with a throwback photo by Jose Luis.

Merry Christmas!

Hey everyone,

I hope your holiday season is going well :)  What are you all doing for the holidays? What are your favorite movies to watch this time of year? Mine is The Hebrew Hammer, I absolutely LOVE the love making scene in it (if you have seen this movie, you know what I'm talking about, if you haven't seen it-you really should!). 

 If you celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a wonderful day tomorrow! I will be spending the day with my boyfriend's family eating...

Hey everyone!

I'm feeling good!

Hey!

Hey everyone,

My move is still kicking my butt! I am living out of boxes all over my house, and my previous place still has way too much stuff in it. I'm starting to panic because everything has to be out by the end of Monday. Wish me luck. I'll be back to my regularly planned schedule asap! I'm also going to be doing something new for patrons $5 and up, so stay tuned! I'll bug y'all tomorrow

Clairbnb in Vegas!

Hey!

Here's a photo captured by Vaunt. It's from our trek to the Clairbnb in Vegas early last month. The rooms were amazing! Super themed,  this set was taken in the 70's room (which I stayed in and was completely obsessed with).  I decided to wear this fab vintage swimsuit which came out in the '60s or 70's-a fishnet design was labeled the "scandal suit" back then, and it was actually made famous from a James Bond film. It felt fitting for the location, and I dig the lighting...

end of the month wrap up

October has been awesome! Lots of fun, lots of growth. I'm trying to decide if I need to redo my $5 tier, because whenever grandfathered in patrons cancel,  new signups jump in and grab the slots before I have a chance to remove them. It is sorta shady, and honestly I think that the $5 level would be better used for something else...but what?

I just sent out the selfie sets for the month, so patrons $75+ please check your emails. Enjoy all the goodies, and if there is something else you w...

Working on signed prints for October!

Hey everyone,

I am working on all of the signed prints for  the month, and I am seeing a lot of higher level patrons who did not provide their shipping addresses. This is TOTALLY fine if you do not want me to send prints, but if you do, please make sure your address is listed in your info-I want to have everything ready to go for Monday morning. Also, there were a few new patrons who are based in different countries, and I wanted to make sure you are all aware that I don't send pri...

New photo!

I just got some photos back from TH Taylor from our shoot last month, and I just had to share this portrait. I love it soooo much!

xoxo Carlotta

Happy Monday!

Hey everyone! I just uploaded this month's video for patrons $20+ so go check your dropboxes! 

Anyone $20 and up, I've decided to wait till the end of the month to send out prints so I can do all patrons at once instead of owing people the following month, and I'll be doing that from now on. 

I've also decided I'll be doing bonus throwbacks for every 50k Instagram followers I get starting when I hit 150 I'll do my next bonus, 200k after that, and so on. I am enjoying cel...

October!!

Hey everyone,

I was in Vegas the first days of the month and I just got home! I hate being late with content, but I shot SO MUCH great stuff. I can't wait to share everything with you all. I've got snapchats uploading now, so give it about an hour. I'm finishing up a photo set edit right now as well, so it will also be up later today!

xoxo Carlotta

September is over already!

This month was amazing! So many goals were reached on Instagram and patreon, SO many photosets were posted and I am gearing up for October-my favorite month- because who doesn't love an excuse to dress up?! I am leaving right at the start of the month for a patreon shooting spree, and I'll try to keep y'all as in the loop with behind the scenes photos as I can!

For all patrons $75 and $200, your custom photosets and videos have been sent out, please look for WeTransfer files in the emai...

Updates and more!

Hey everyone,

First, off Patrons $15+ check your dropboxes. I've posted a photo set that I took of Kristy Jessica when we were in St Louis (the photo above is from that set), and then patrons $20+ I've added a new photoset of me from Brian Lynch that I modeled for earlier this month. 

 This set of Kristy I think is so gorgeous! I'm really excited about it because it was one of the first times I was able to step away from photos, come back to them and say "I think my work...

I'm baaaacccck!

Finally my lovelies! I have returned to LaLa land. Yesterday I had a 3 hour shoot, a trek back to Milwaukee, then 2 flights back to Los Angeles, a bus ride to the valley, and then a pick up from the bus terminal. Needless to say, it was a really long day. I got home right at the crack of midnight, and am only now starting to catch up on a LOT of online work (and not for long because I'm going out for karaoke shortly).

I definitely am aware that we've got some new patrons, which is awesome! But...

Hello from Milwaukee(ish)!

Hey everyone,

I'm sorry I've been out of touch, I've been traveling for the last week. I started off in Toronto, and am currently in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin (but near Milwaukee). I will give a good blog about my travels once I return home, but for now, I wanted to let everyone know that we JUST reached the monthly goal!

100k Patreon party!

Hey everyone! I just hit 100K followers on Instagram!!!!! This is hella exciting for me, and I wanted to post up a bunch of content as a thank you.

The past week

When I was 15, during summer vacation and in the dead heat of July, my mother had a baby. When school started and I was always stuck babysitting and all my extracurricular stuff were dropped, the rumor mills spread that the baby was mine. Of course, he wasn't, but in retrospect, I find it amusing because I was a pretty straight-laced kid. 

My relationship with my brother has been pretty minimal over the years, mainly due to the fact that I moved out when he was a toddler and we hav...

Hey everyone!

This photo was taken at some very cool sand dunes. Unfortunately, random people kept showing up so I was limited to my level of nudity, but the pictures are gorgeous :) I hope you like em!

xoxo Carlotta

Happy August!

Hey everyone, Patreon is taking its sweet time with billing, so hopefully, I can get everything up and going tomorrow. I'm pretty bummed to see my patrons drop from 191 to 162 (and still falling). I was really excited to reach a new audience. I'm hoping some of my new friends will stick around to see what else is in store!

If you haven't noticed, I started redoing my tiers. For those of you who decide to upgrade, I will have bonus folders ready for you tomorrow :) For those of you who d...

GOAL REACHED! (link below)

I just saw that we hit 165 patrons!!! WOOHOOOOO! Thank you, everyone, it means so much to me to make it so far with Patreon, I hope you are loving everything I've put out so far.

Occasionally I shoot people in clothing

So this month I'll probably do two sets of people I photographed since they're a bit different. I just wanted to share some of the photos I captured of Theresa Manchester in this killer blue bodysuit (I don't think I posted this set before, but if I did please let me know!). 

To see more of her work, please check her out at https://www.patreon.com/theresamanchester

xoxo Carlotta

It's July already!

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to hop in and say all billing JUST finished, and i'm on my way out the door to a photo shoot, so I'll be getting info up late tonight. Please be patient with me, I promise its coming!

hugs and thank you for everything!

Kristy Jessica!
