This is an unreleased shoot featuring Jisel Lynn, a stunningly beautiful desi model. We shot this with the intention of making it its own scene and then the photos just got lost in the mix until now!

I showed Heather these pictures and she said, "We really nailed it with this set. Your talent really shines through in capturing these moments." I agree, and the results speak for themselves—there's even a shot here that Heather typically wouldn't agree to release, but she did, and she's proud of it.
The whole concept of an artist/muse relationship is a fascinating phenomenon in this field. When you work creatively with someone for so long, your visions and understanding of the concep...

Fionna is someone who REALLY understands the assignment when it comes to matching wardrobe to scene. And I say this as someone who does wardrobe for at least 90% of the shoots you see. I sent her a couple pics of the location and she was like "say on more fam," except she didnt say that because no one says that anymore, but then she showed up with a damn PLAYBOY BUNNY outfit and I'm just like, "yeah, that works, word," or whatever.
Now ask me what the sliver of light is and Ill respond ...

Anais Dior, someone I wish I could've had more opportunity to shoot with over the years, but am very happy with the portfolio her and I built as she traversed life from being a wild free spirit to spiritual motherhood. This set, of course, is from the former years.

Friends, this shoot day with Heather was absolutely incredible. All the shoots from this location were great, but her session, especially the VIDEO, will go down in Mike B/Heather duo history. We're not yet ready to reveal exactly what we did just yet, but I'll just say that it's a big step up from what we've done and she's very very eager to shoot more like it asap.
This scene was the first thing we shot that day, Heather in a fine mesh see through nightie, insisted on by her as she c...

Duffy is definitely growing on me more as time passes since our last shoot. She's just SO unique both visually, and as a real life character. This is yet another dress I found in goodwill - and I knew that Duffy had these boots from her instagram feed history, so I dropped her a DM asking if she still had those boots and included a picture of this dress and she was like "YES! I'll bring them!" and rocked this shit.

Ash Haze - from our shoot in the Pink House, which ultimately turned out to be kind of a lame AirBnB, but with a petite gorgeous naked blonde walking around, whos gonna complain?

It's summer! Who here golfs? I sure don't as evidenced by the poor swinging posture that I pretended I knew how to execute when I demonstrate it to Paige for this set. So, I had Paige on the cal to work with and I'm going through goodwill and I stumble across this piece that JUST came out the warehouse. It was TINY, but cute as fuck and so I snapped a photo of it and google kicked back a price tag of $400!! But this was a replica so it wasn't THAT much of a steal. Still, I picked it up, stole...

For Genesis' final set, we covered her in bright blue latex paint and gave her the freedom to show off her flexibility.
Unfortunately, her family has stepped in and made it clear that they don't want her to model for me because of the risque content that we shoot, hence the name change she requested. Keep in mind, she's in her twenties, but family is gonna family so we gotta just appreciate all that we have achieved thus far and move on. I had a blast working with her, she's beautiful,...

Introducing the Instax Project - A weekly drop of Instax photo sets from your favorite models past, present and future.
Instax has its own unique vibe, even amongst its relative formats like the polaroid, standing out with it being centered around the 4x5 portrait. This format lends itself well for people photography because, well, people are typically taller than they are wide, which allows you to capture more of them in frame without having to step back and, in turn, ...

Paige, once, again, rocking this beautiful summer dress that I am absolutely going to use again soon. I used a big octo-softbox for the white and a splash of color for that little extra kick. Shot on my Canon 85mm 1.8 with a pretty dense soft filter. Surrounded Paige with a bunch of doodads and she LOVED the silly glass headroom model and, naturally, got a little cheeky with it.

Y'all it's HEATHER'S BIRTHDAY TODAY! Be sure to hop over to her page and show her some love on her Instagram!
This set is pretty basic in setup, but came out pretty stellar for a last second idea. Outside the window I have a my LED light on a TALLLL light stand, weighted down to keep it from falling. It took several different light modifiers before I ended up settling on, I think, just the bare bulb lol. I told her...

Oh Lindsay, my first muse, still unmatched in her wild and playfully seductive modeling style. These shots are from 2014 and I'm fairly certain most of them are unreleased. I did a complete top to bottom reprocess of these, hand picking a set, using new software tech, shit that was unheard of in 2014. And, honestly, reliving what were some of the first huge steps in my early photography career. The last image is probably the biggest tell, especially for those of you who know Lindsay and I whe...

Paige dropped by the studio recently, eager to shoot some new content with her cute pixie haircut. I let her pick the setup for this scene, as I had mine all lined up already, and she pulls out these tiny little PJs with.. bats on them lol. I pulled together a bubble gum setting and captured the strip tease that she blessed it with. I gotta say I appreciate her boldness in some of these shots, from playful to sinful, she manages to squeeze it all in.

Bright and early with Heather! I can't remember exactly when we started shooting this, but I'm pretty sure it's like 6am as we only had so much time where the sun would be peeking over the mountains and actually shoot through the window to get this look. Heather is a champ tho, just give her some coffee and she's good to go! I apologize for how filthy the windows are, I had to whip up my own blend of vinegar and dish soap for a makeshift windex concoction and was out there wiping them down as...

I can't tell you how much I love working with Juno, even though I tell you every time I make a post featuring her, it's still not enough!
I handcrafted this entire look - the boots I got from a boutique shop, the orange bodysuit from a thrift shop, the glasses from amazon, and I knew I was going to be shooting with the spotlight to really exaggerate the reflections which I would exaggerate further using my star filter. I had an entire look pre-built and it wouldn't have worked with any...

You guys are gonna love this set. Heather is glowing as she playfully hangs out the window to tease the camera, and everyone else, before inviting us inside for a better view.
I adore how this set came out. Shot on my 85mm which doesn't get much love because of space constraints. I'm literally standing on a rickety ladder I found in the shed as I shoot these from across the yard, risking my neck for the fans! The sun was less than cooperative, clouds coming in and out of its view, but ...

This set came together so randomly that it was like fate had dictated it happen.
Genesis and I were discussing this shoot while I was browsing goodwill, and she sends me this pinterest link that's a woman holding an old phone laying in a pile of cotton (or so I thought). I literally just HAPPENED to be looking at this old phone sitting on the rack and immediately responded with a pic and she agreed - it was fate. Then I started doing some digging on how exactly they get that fake cloud loo...
Beautiful set with Heather in one of the guest rooms in Bolinas. There were a few wicker furniture pieces already in the room, so we went with something a little more beach-focused for attire. I wanted the hard light from the sun to come in for this one and I used a white blanket on the bed to help reflect some of it back at her. I shot this with my 35mm, which really stands out from the rest of my lenses with how it forces me to adjust my composition and colors, even in post. It makes Heathe...

What started as a reference photo turned out to be a pretty stellar angelic looking set! Duffy sent me a beautiful photo that only this morning I was able to track down the actual owner of (romakphoto on insta, if you're curious), and asked if we could shoot something similar. I happened to have a nice collection of pearl neck pieces, and I almost never shoot with the light directly overhead so I was definitely up for the challenge. In the original, I could see that they are in a much larger ...

This set was a top tier struggle from a technical perspective, but first let's talk about Genesis. She's rocking the implied look with nothing but a carefully placed sequined sheet. Definitely still loving the energy she's bringing to these looks, and she's getting visibly more and more comfortable as the scenes progress. From a tech perspective, jesusfuckingchrist.
The background were simple curtains, then a chair, a vase with some random color appropriate plants, and I draped another...

This was the first scene we shot in Bolinas, perfectly capturing the vibe of the whole trip - Lots of light, an iced drink, and zero worries except for the dad that did like 20 laps pushing his spawn around trying for a glimpse! I found this romper at goodwill, of course, and Heather almost n e v e r wears shit that I bring so this set is EXTRA special because of it, in my opinion lol. Also I sincerely apologize for missing the focus on some of these straw pics, I was NOT expecting them and I...

This is the last set I shot with Paige at Misty's retro-groovy-house-a-rama, and it's by far my best. She just knows how to be cute, and Misty loves dressing her up because she rocks every look so well. This isn't the end of the road for her tho, I've got a few more sets I JUST shot with her on a recent visit in the studio. Hype mode.

Introducing Duffy! She came highly recommended from my photographer friend Jason. She's a creole mix with gorgeous skin, naturally curly hair and an amazing body. Her and I brainstormed a bunch of ideas together on instagram and executed all of them perfectly. This set, which, if you know Jasonvsthecommunityguidelines' work, looks like something he'd shoot because, well, it's all his studio props ...

waves hand you don't remember the old name, you only remember the new: GENESIS
Not the first time I've had to ninja swap a name for a model, it keeps them happy and keeps the working relationship healthy and that's what's important.
As this set will show you, Genesis truly enjoys creating. She puts in a lot of hours helping support her family, and when I see her be completely carefree like this, it tells me this is an outlet she truly needs. Sexy pics aside, this is...
