Oh, man, friends! This is a late night, indeed. I’m, again, trying to fit everything in to my day, running out of the necessary hours to complete everything. The cost of friends, family, art, editing, drawing, writing, MTG, exercise, food and Steemit is usually enjoying only four hours of sleep. With that being said, let me get on with it.
Tonight’s photography is from a couple years ago. I’ve chronicled the massive undertaking that was the annual all inclusive Old Hollywood black and white photography event I held called NOIR. It started in 2014. It eventually made it’s way to NYC and LA in addition to Minneapolis. This shoot was from the last NOIR event held in the fall of 2016.
I booked a world class team and hosted the event at a jaw dropped mansion estate in La Cañada. Hair was by my close friend and brilliant stylist, Liz Garza. Make-up by our very own Steemian, @carazozula. I brought on my friend Cora of The Lingerie Addict as the stylist, Kiss Me Deadly lingerie was the wardrobe sponsor, and @vermillionfox helped coordinate the entire weekend of shoots and clients.
This shoot was with a beautiful, curvy pinup named Anastassia. It was one of the first shoots of the two day event. She came ready and wide-eyed at the space we were shooting. @vermillionfox introduced me to Anastassia, then she made her way to the beauty and wardrobe team while I prepared for our shoot.
Sometimes, it can take a model a bit to warm up. At times, that’s an obstacles for events like NOIR because many of the shoot packages are only 30 minutes, as was the case with Anastassia. Fortunately, she snapped in to a sultry, strong presence almost immediately. We made our way around the estate as the sun went down, creating dark pinup photos.
The light conditions for this shoot were challenging in the minimal options we had, but, this is my favorite part of shooting a diegetic style. Hanging strings of lights on the patio and a knocked over desk lamp were enough to capture a haunting, timeless image of this lovely woman.
Thanks for reading. For more photography, art, illustration and the stories behind the work, follow me here @kommienezusapdt!

You sleep four hours per day??? But I only sleep for just 2hours😁😁😁Life of a programmer and steemian

Great photogrophy
WOW. your model has a perfect charm.
and lovely light really brings out the sensuous ripples of the earth.

Killer shots as always dude, beautiful model too. I feel your pain too, I've been averaging around 4 hours sleep for the last few days and its not fun at all!

I hope this week you can enjoy more rest while sleeping 8 hours at night. At least napping in the afternoon for 20 minutes. Can you squeeze those in?
Very interesting post excellent regards
I especially love the last photo, with the knocked over lamp... The lamp with her pose/expression gives me the impression of flaring tempers/lovers quarrel. Sexy and moody.
Do you do polyphasic sleeping? Easy to live a very healthy life with even less than 4 hours sleep a day! Just need to have multiple short naps at intervals instead of a single big sleep per day :)
Sehr schöne Fotos!!!! Haben etwas echtes und an sich, nicht so wie ein gestelltes shooting....
She is just glowing in confidence! You seem to be a master of making this light shine in your model's eyes. Always true artistic perfection!
