Caturday!
Canon EOS 40D | 200mm | 1/50sec | f/4 | ISO-400
This is Azlan. Azlan was a large, older, scuffed up former stray who decided he really, really didn’t want to be outdoors anymore. He loved laps, being pet, and sleeping on your chest, which was hella inconvenient when you wanted to so something as mundane as breathe while you slept. Many a nap was interrupted by me gasping for air while this…

More Thoughts on This Hobby of Mine
X-T2 | 50mm | 1/250sec | f/7.1 | ISO-200
I rambled a bit about my hobby in a previous post and wanted to expound about it a bit more. When people find out what I do for fun they naturally have questions. Most of those questions, oddly enough, focus on what I plan to do with the photos I take. When I tell them “not a dang thing,” the reactions range from incredulity to jaw-dropping incredulity.…

I’m gutted that the airbnb person who rented out this place in Charlotte no longer does so, because these windows were so much fun.

What it Means to be the World's Best Asexual Art Nude Photographer
X-T2 | 50mm | 1/250sec | f/11 | ISO-200
The “World’s Best Asexual Art Nude Photographer” may be a title that I’ve given myself in jest, but there is a kernel of truth at the heart of it. I am asexual and it has an oversized impact on who I am as a photographer. It drives how I work, the type of work that I do, the environment I create, the language I use, and the value I attach to art, consent,…

Light Illuminates, Shadows Define
X-T4 | 35mm | 1/250sec | f/11 | ISO-160
This image of Rui is a testament to the importance of being prepared. I tend to overpack for a session, but this time it paid off. We had already shot two looks when Rui said, “Could you just light me from here up and have the rest in shadow?”
“Actually,” I said, not at all in a mansplaining sort of way, “I can!”
In my kit was a set of barn doors. I had…

This Image Was Already Epic...
OM-1 | 22mm | 1/250sec | f/8 | ISO-200
…but when I described my impression of it to Ivy as “a gender-flipped The Creation of Adam with the Stay-Puft marshmallow man standing in for God,” we knew we had created something singularly special.

Caturday: Butters Style
X-T4 | 50mm | 1/60sec | f/1 | ISO-1000
Butters hopes that her coloration camouflages her so that her rest is not interrupted, but also that you’ll notice her and give her chin skritches, because despite the dour mien she really loves chin skritches.
And with that, we wrap up this edition of Vanilla Week! Tomorrow we get back to the NSFW stuff.

Vanilla Week: Santa Cruz Sunset
X-T10 | 35mm | 1/80sec | f/8 | ISO-200
Taken the first day of my BFF’s bachelor party weekend. This was captured with my first mirrorless camera, the dainty and hella cool Fujifilm X-T10: a 16 megapixel APS-C crop sensor camera whose low light performance matched my 21 megapixel full frame Canon.
It is also a megapixel myth-buster. I have printed this image as large as 13×19″ and not only is…

Find yourself a tattoo artist who is as good in front of the camera as she is behind a device that is stabbing you in the arm thousands of times an hour. Kimberly is the proprietress of Golden Falcon Tattoo, in Chapel Hill, NC.
