Here's the final shots with Burgundy!

The idea behind this shoot was to try and capture the mid-90s from attire to actual look and feel of the processing. It was a lot more steps than the usual shoot, but th...

Nineteen shots are rendered and ready to go just in time for Halloween HYPE! Easily one of the most labor intensive shoots I've done this year but, as you can see, it was worth it.  

There's no particular order to these as it's pretty much just a collection of random shots of Pokket sloshing around in blood :P The ...

At the beginning of the month, I mentioned that there were 5 shoots planned  for October. I also mentioned that sometimes things happen and models need to cancel.. well, that happened not once or twice, but THREE times! Now, it's worth mentioning that up until this point I usually only booked a sin...

Angela Rae - Scene 1 - Picks, Bans and Basic Processing

Mike B (akamikeb) post Angela Rae - Scene 1 - Picks, Bans and Basic Processing from patreon

Angela Rae's first scene that we shot last weekend was a standard Boudoir scene, something I somehow managed to go 10+ years without shooting much of. My inexperience in this specific field was countered by Angela's and together we ended up with some pretty amazing (and ridiculously steamy) pictures.

Caroline compositing timelapse + PSD!

Mike B (akamikeb) post Caroline compositing timelapse + PSD! from patreon

The final image in Caroline's Etiquette set was actually a composite of 3 different photos. Above you'll see the timelapse (set to 65daysofstatic's No Man's Sky soundtrack, the only good thing about that game) which condenses the 45 minutes or so worth of work down to a quick two minutes. It's not perfect, but for its size it is...

Mark your calendars! This Friday at 1PM PST (8PM GMT) we'll be going through the outdoor scene from the shoot with Caroline. I expect this will be a long one as there are a ton of elements in each image that we'll have to sift through... bring extra coffee.
