MODEL PHOTOSHOOT FOR UPCOMING PROJECT!
Had an amazing time working with the Team at Live Model Books. They have the best resource I have ever seen for artists.
I had the privilege to direct the model shoot and work with Vik Tori, an incredible model and fellow dancer! Speaking a similar language meant we were able to get exactly the poses we needed for this project!
Here is a picture from the shoot. More updates to come about this exciting project!
