Littlest Lady in Christchurch, New Zealand!

Hey, Steemit! Hope you’re all having a good night […morning shortly, for many of you]. I’m just getting @guthrie to bed, now savoring a quiet house where I can think, write and make a blog post. It’s been a good day with a balance amount of work and fun. @ghostfish, @bryanpollite and myself shot footage for the @coppercoins crowdfunding campaign and I spent the morning editing it. @tarotbyfergus and I played MTG for a bit, hung out with @guthrie and eventually @vermillionfox at @caffeto. I’m going to draw after this, and maybe read more of American Gods.

Alright! New photography! These photos are very recent, and as you all know, I take great pleasure in sharing them here on Steemit before I post them anywhere else on the internet. These photos are from a shoot I recently did with Littlest Lady in Christchurch, New Zealand. She’s an outspoken mental and emotional health advocate and blogger on trauma and abuse. I really looked forward to meeting her and shooting with, above all, to ensure a positive and comfortable experience. Something many women struggle with in the industry.

I co-hosted this event with my close friend Ella, also known as Miss Victory Violet. A location that she arranged for our sessions is called OGB, which I later found out means “Old Government Building”. We’d started hair and make-up early, and Ms. Lady was our third shoot of the day. A completely different approach to other photographers she’s worked with, I was having her pose in small spaces, surrounded with candles and small mirrors. She seemed unsure, but took such great direction.

These are just the first in a series of edits with Littlest Lady still to come. I’m really excited for the next round, as some of the photos we made at the end of the shoot are really stunning! I’m really loving these HF22 changes. I feel that long form blogging on Steemit will always be my interpretation of the platform, and the direction the site is going since the hard fork is very much in line with my strengths as an author. Thanks for reading. For more photography, follow me here @kommienezuspadt!
