Goth Swimsuit Ms November

June 4, 2009 Goth

Tara Ward is the only non-goth model in the calendar. She gets to be the damsel in distress fro Nosferatu. I actually talk a little about how I did post production on this image in my pinup workshop lecture.
Marc Moorash makes it into another image, though he is credited as Max Schreck.

Goth Swimsuit Ms August

June 2, 2009 Goth

Athena Fatale came down from Dallas with Angela. We had this idea we wanted to do a devil and the amazing Heather Stanley took her into the makeup room and started hand painting.
I know Athena thought it was fun because after the shoot she called Angela in to the dressing room to get her [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms July

June 1, 2009 Goth

Angela Ryan was the headliner of the calendar if anyone was. She wanted July because her birthday was in July.
I said recently I’ve got an up coming shoot that will be the coolest since the zombies. This is the Zombie shoot I was talking about. Incredible zombie makeup by the Seraphemera people. Ms. October is [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms June

May 31, 2009 Goth

Xotica was Ms June. She was one of the first models to come in from out of town, in this case Austin.
Little bit of Houston trivia, Howard Hughes is buried in Houston in the beautiful Glenwood cemetery. We shot this image an other there, kind of commando. They are pretty cool with people being [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms May

May 30, 2009 Goth

If April was April Showers, then May must be May Flowers.
Here we have model Spleen in a multiple exposure. The suit was specially made for her by the wizards at SINched.
This was an image we shot, but never used. The boots Spleen is wearing have literally 12 inch heels, with a 4 inch at least [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms April

May 29, 2009 Goth

April showers with a twist. A drowned model and a man with magic.
This idea was Marc’s and he managed to work himself into another month, though I don’t think that was his plan.
The model was one of only 2 models I would say weren’t goth at all. She was actually tan. Nor is she [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms March

May 28, 2009 Goth

There just aren’t many good holidays in March.
St. Patrick’s day doesn’t really lend itself to Goth.
Ankha’s boyfriend at the time was Brian Crump, who was a body painter. We decided to do something theatrical. We had masks. We got this.
The three masked people? Marc Moorash, my wife Suanna, and Model Spleen, who was also [...]

Goth Swimsuit Ms February

May 27, 2009 Goth

Of course February is dominated by Valentines Day. Which makes us think Cupid.
This idea was actually one of the first I had for the calendar, Cupid with a Compound Bow. Also one of the first shot with model Rain.
Makeup was done by Tara Ward.

Goth Swimsuit Ms January

May 26, 2009 Goth

We started with the idea of baby – or in this case babe – new year taking over from the old year/father time. Babe was a great idea because we could strip her down a bikini. But we had to put a twist on it of course.
Maybe last year wasn’t quite ready to go.
The model [...]
