So I finally debuted my Morrigan Darkstalker cosplay! For those of you who missed it on facebook, here are a few shots taken with my brand new lights. It was fun to work with the new equipment though let me just say how cumbersome those wings are in small quarters!!!Ugh.


"I want to see your tears and hear your shouts of anger! Everything that is yours, I will make mine! " Now come show my first complete cosplay of 2013 some love my critters! And do admire the craftsmanship of the wings by Crone Designs. SEE MORE AT: https://www.facebook.com/Unseelie.Allure


I also announced my next cosplay for the new year - with its epic train, diva hair and ridiculous amount of detailing.

Aside from cosplay Iv had a few times to practice with the strobes for other shoots. The softbox i got was... alot larger than i anticipated so its hard to fit in my car or even in some small rooms so I havent been able to try it out at work just yet. I did use it as a backlighting setup though.


This weekend ill be giving them their first true test shooting a sizable marathon of images: 2 geek goddess strip sets and 2 portfolio pieces. The strip sets often are very long because you need at *least* like 75 solid shots and im very pushy about having pose variety in them. I HATE sites that post a large set of images with poses that look almost the same shot to shot. At that point, cull it to the best pieces and just be okay with it being a smaller set. If you did it right, ppl will still be masturbating  ya know?


Anyhow, all this will have to wait till my lovely model, Nana Valtiel arrives! She slept in and missed her first train and the second train so we are waiting on the third to arrive and ship her my direction. Downside? Im still awake from yesterday so unless i keep active i tend to lose my sleep deprived energy rush lol

Kickstarter backer feature #4


Today's features youll find on FB. Since we all spend so much time on there haha

First up is Urban Fantasy Photography: https://www.facebook.com/UrbanFantasyPhotos .
Their work is something I can certainly get behind - with bold and fun themes from steampunk to cosplays. Youll also notice, they had the chance to work with my huge fan girl crush, fetish icon Ulorin Vex! SO GREEN WITH ENVY!







Next is Ground Nine hat clips! Well, they say they sell hat clips on their FB page but after looking at their pics i think they sell a range of merchandise.

"Ground Nine is inspired and modeled in part by the classic writings of The Nine Grounds from 'The Art Of War' by the warrior-philosopher Master Sun Tzu, and all the Rap and Hip Hop artists grinding it out night after night with all their heart and soul trying to push their music to the top and the people who can appreciate the effort it takes to make it."

Kickstarter Backer Feature #3

When people's main complaint is "it could have been longer", its a good sign youll gobble this book up. The dark and sarcastic humor of these ladies will most likely resonate with fans of Laural K Hamilton's strong female lead character, Anita Blake. Overall, thats where the similarities end. While LKH's novels are more of a paranormal edge fans of a thrilling film nior read will love this even with the added action elements.

"Francesca "Frankie" Fairholm is tapped to enter a super-secret society of contract killers fresh out of high school, a society she enters without a qualm - she's never quite fit into her oh-so-proper family, and Osiris seems to provide her with the job she was born to do. When her cousins Kat and Addi become involved, the whole thing gets a little more complicated. What's Osiris' master plan for the Fairholm family? And can Frankie control her killer instincts when it counts?"

You and I have been through a lot
And yet we still hold fast by eachother's side
We each face our demons
Always ready and willing to sacrifice everything for the other person


Sacrificing everything for the other person to ensure their happiness
Why?
Why do we submit ourselves to the dangers of getting hurt, 
Risking our own happiness to ensure that of another?
What do they get in return for making another happy?
Gratitude, adoration, but most of all love.
Its the most amazing feeling to receive from another
Especially the one you love
Being loved and loving in return
Makes fighting those demons and ensuring the others happiness worth while
It makes everything worth while
The waiting, the anguish, the joy
Everything



All this I would do for you
All this and more
For you are my Master and I love you unconditionally
I would sacrafice everything I have, 
Everything I am
If it meant being there for you and seeing you happy
I love you so much,
More than words or actions could describe
Perhaps more than I can even grasp
More than you could possibly realize



Thank you so much for sticking beside me when I went astray
Being there for me when I was hurt or scared
For just being there when I needed you and for looking after me
But most of all thank you for loving me
It makes me happy that you love me
With all that you are
All that you can be
Thank you my Master
      
         I love you...

Ha-dick-en! All my boners.


 TWO DAYS TWENTY-ONE HOURS LEFT UNTILL I CAN GO ON FB AGAIN WOO!

    Welp, I *WAS* going to do a video for you guys on all the updates as of late but I just got wailed in the face with one hell of a bug. Im pretty sure i caught it while at work doing the open casting call. SO MANY PEOPLE *facepalm* anyhow, ONWARD! Onward with cold medicine induced rambles!


Iv been working a lot on costuming for all sorts of things from shoots to events.
Sort of last min ( for me anyway, im rather fond of planning ahead) I got invited to Wicked Fair and their VIP event, The Goblin Market. Certainly cant go a victorian stylized alternative changeling-esque atmosphere in your skivvies! So iv been trying to put together three outfits for that event. The only preview I can show atm is a very wintery earth tone gown that makes me think of Mrs Lovitt's gown in the market scene of the movie lol Tattered browns, fur trim, feathers etc Im looking forward to bringing along a light with me so i hope people are also putting together some epic things to wear come Feb!






My DarkStalkers Morrigan Cosplay is pretttty much DONE!
I just need someone to stencil on some bats to my ass and
the back of my legs. Other than that its all ready to go!
I think if im feeling better before someone can lend me
an artistic hand ill do the preview shoot of her and just
Pshop the back view. Though im still wondering where
I should shoot her?









On other notable things of epicness - the UPS guy left about 8 boxes of various dimensions on my doorstep this morning. I opened the door and practically got uppercutted by my own rock hard boner seeing them haha Thankfully my mail carriers think im nuts to begin with but the look he gave me as i started loading almost all of them on my shoulders like the hulk would have been telling. ( Believe it or not, carrying around 5-6 fully beaded ballgowns in your arms all day is pretty fucking heavy. But it pays off when trying to creep out your mail man it seems lol)

Psst here are some off the cam raw test shots iv been
doing tonight to distract myself from being sick.
 I cant wait to play with the bottom center set up!

Amongst the mighty bounty were my first ever strobes! I got 2 Alien bees - a AB400 & 800. A 48" softbox that doubles as a puptent, barndoors, gels of every color, honeycome grid set, a portable power pack, some vintage lingerie, a mink hat, silver Mylar paper, vintage German officers WW coat(complete with old blood stains in it) and a new tripod.



Im still expecting some untold tools of great and wordly domination. Gowns are under construction already but one has to wait to get started untill the tailor Kaito Milk gets back from Katsu Con! Boo! Though on the more fetish end, im a bit conflicted. Latex Sailor Mars or Latex Military Uniform? What do you guys want to see more?



On the note of Kickstarter, I just sent all the print orders in to my shop!
And I splurged a bit on everyone's prints and upgraded them all to Metalic paper.
 *throws confetti!* 


Okay. Im gonna go dream of the one (Rob Zombie's "Living Dead Girl" just came on Pandora as i was writing this. So make it 2 things that can make me feel better atm LOL) thing that makes me feel better when im sick, Monster energy drinks! *gnaws on her last can*

Thanks to Alan Ralph, I had a video to post FOR my kickstarter! It was a real pain to figure out what to say in it so this guy cut out all my "derp" outtakes and spliced them all together to be ready for viewing! But normaly, he works on more complicated stuff than saving the world from my bloopers lol  Alan is a software developer based out of the UK who has since branched out to graphic design, printing and technical advisement.

Hello, Kitty!






So yeah, i recorded a review for this that was pretty cool. But then it got corrupted. And not in a sexy cackling villain way. Frustrated after almost 24 hours of being awake youll have to deal with this small clip of me wiggling my ass in it's stead. For now! Meh, and seeing this just reminds me i need a matching ivory lace bra panty set to put under this outfit for non tit friendly environments. I love the way see through latex looks with a bit of texture.

And as Always, Should you be inclined to please me, here is my wishlist: http://amzn.com/w/VN651OSN670R

Soft Kitty...Warm kitty....not so little ?



Hey everyone! I figure id give a casual update since im still estranged from my fb audience *grabby hands* T_T In 8 days ill be BACK! I want to turn to my boss and be like " i need the week off" "oh wow why?" "...I havent been on FB for an entire month*Stares blankly*" haha


Monday is going to be pretty long since we are hosting an open casting call to anyone wanting to model for us and walk in our charity fashion show. There are so many charities Id want to help with - like the In-Sync Exotics Wildlife rescue. But we went with the Scholarship America fund this time which helps kids pay for college. Which i wish i had help from when i went to school haha




The In-Sync Exotics rescue center is based in Texas and is a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue of neglected, abused and unwanted exotic felines. As a fairly recently established organization (2000) they house and care for so many breath taking creatures. Reading some of the stories of how they were found made me want to throw up and punch humanity though T_T



"When the door opened we were hit with an unmistakable smell of rotten meat. On the left was a freezer of old rotten meat that had been covered in maggots then refroze. Just past the freezer was the first “stall” on the left. There were two cougars inside with piles of feces, old rotten food covered with bugs and maggots and absolutely no water. What we saw next was the most horrifying of all. Kane was laying in a corner weaving and shaking back and forth and was obviously very sick."



"His condition was so bad upon his arrival that we were not even 100% sure he was a lynx. He suffered severe ringworm, which left him almost entirely hairless. He was also anemic and significantly underweight at only 10.5 pounds."




But reading about how they have rejuvenated these poor guys is wonderful. Course, since it is a non profit organization and taking care of these endangered creatures costs tremendous amounts of money they are always looking for donations and volunteers.


There are many ways you can help, including, but not limited to:

  • Washing Bowls and Buckets
  • Cleaning enclosures
  • Preparing animal diets
  • Helping with special events
  • Fund raising
  • Building new enclosures





In addition to volunteers helping with the day-to-day chores, they also need skilled volunteers to help with special projects:



Skilled Volunteers:

  • Welders
  • Plumbers
  • Electricians
  • Landscapers
  • Carpenters


Marketing Support Volunteers:


  • Press Contacts
  • Finding contributions
  • Setting up corporate/business sponsors
  • Designing fundraising materials
  • Producing/printing fundraising materials
  • Obtaining donations for stocking gift shop
