Memoirs of Steph

Today’s Work

A new series we will start sharing is workouts and fitness progress if interested?

To the Top

When I was learning photography and photoshop years back one topic was landscape photography. I decided to make it a body scape instead, just having fun with it. Steph lended me one of her breasts for the project.This shot of a mountain was one of my favorites, I wanted to post to social media bu...

New Vampire Edits

Hey It's Steph! Alex and I are traveling to NC to film a wedding this weekend but he asked me to do a post, I'm terrible at captions and writing things out, which is why he manages patreon. But here are some of these new edits featured on instagram yesterday from the spooky vampire shoot. This ye...

Portal (Continued) Top Tier

There was a comment I recently got from a patreon about intimacy being documented vs p#rn. I appreciated that insight. While there are some aspects we still want to keep between us, there are more and more intimacies being presented in our art. Nothing has really changed however, when I first sta...

Scarlet Drape (full gallery) Jaw & Fox Tiers

A two light set up in this low key fine art approach concept. The last shot is mid sneeze which always happens during a shoot, that or a yawn. 

What are your thoughts?

Memoirs of Steph is an ongoing project with the original goal of 10 years; starting when we .

Like some sort of unscripted movie or documentary of our life and creative projects; the idea is to cap...

Portal (Top Tier)

Have you ever had a crazy dream about someone?

Portal

In between looks, we took a quick break from the shoot yesterday. I went to get some water and a stool for her to sit on and when I came back in she was re applying some oil in front of the mirror. I instantly saw a cool look. I moved my white balance down to give cool feel to the photos (I don't...

Scarlet Drape

Kicking off October with a spooky type boudoir & nude shoot... Here's a quick 1.5 minute look at today's shoot. I got a lot of content (photo/video) and had a separate shoot all together in front of the mirror in the home studio. 

Do you like her hair darker?

Cosplay World 2022

We just went to check out the event today. People snapped a few photos of her, we took some photos with others, and had a good time. Steph loves cosplay. She's trying to make the time to take it more seriously. One of our goals today was to find parts for a new look, or at least get some inspo. W...

Mesh Suit

She had this mesh suit in her closet that had seen better days, honestly I am not sure why she had it; you can't really wear it anywhere. But we made a look out of it for a quick shoot before a cosplay shoot (Mando). 

I haven't really shared any of these photos partly because I had no ...

Female Anatomy (Body paint)

Someone reached out and asked if I had posted this shoot I believe. I looked for it and could only find the preview to this shoot, so I apologize if I somehow forgot I posted this.

Shay, our body paint and makeup artist, who is part of our small team for weddings, or music videos, spent 7 h...

Field Workout

This won't be today's post, but felt like sharing some snap shots of filming one of her workout routines last night. 

Workout Progress

Far from artistic this post, but something I like to do is snap a shot of her workout routines and progress from time to time.

All Angles (From the Leather Coat Gallery) Top Tier

For the second image I wanted to crop in to make it less intrusive, but the crop did not work; I really like the pose however. I think the solution is to have the light right above her to give a more flattering lighting solution. But for sake of enjoying every inch of her, I think these photos wo...

Glitter Paint Trio

I posted only one shot from this gallery so far. This was a shoot from 2 years ago now. Steph and a few models wanted to try some glitter body paint with Shay. I came up with a very simple concept ( I was working on another job that day) but I think the photos came out nice. I would of liked to p...

Podcast: Post Production S2 E1

If you have 10 minutes to spare, feel free to check out part 1 to this podcast giving a little insight into our recent workflow. I plan to do this monthly so feel free to give me some feedback (I’m a little rusty at this)

Latex (gone wrong)

We ordered a look but some of it did not arrive and the suit was a bit too small, we did a half shoot today, but will have to go back to the drawing board on this one once we get the wardrobe right. 

I made a rather funny video of her trying to get in the suit. Steph is fairly small, s...

Dream

One of the shots from "Dream" or "Quiet City"  from our trip to NYC. I had included this originally but took it down because I thought the platform may flag it may of crossed some lines in not being artsy.

Leather Coat

It started sleeting one winter day back in 2019. We had an outdoor shoot planned in the city with a leather coat, getting some urban street photo vibes. We stayed indoors and did this shoot instead. 

Happy Fall

Summer brings excellent beach and pool photo opportunities, but fall is by far my favorite time to take photos. How about you?

Photo: "Poolside" Tybee Island June 2022

Roses, Titans, and Woods

All three of these shoots happened on the same day. We took an hour for each concept. 

Which concept or photo is your favorite? Any constructive critique? 

Ten Years Married

It's been a journey, it's not all fun, its work, but its a blessing. I'm happy and blessed to have her.

Campy Horror Scene

Next month, (Oct) one of the shoots we have planned is a horror shower scene shoot and video. Any other requests?

Unedited from "Frostbite"

One of the first shoots we posted was from "Frostbite" here's a look back at some of the unedited photos.

A Day Working Together

We went out the other day to work together, here's a few shots from throughout the day.

Before and Now

It's important to look back where you started, and from time to time remind yourself why you started.

Here is a look at 2016 the day after I got my camera (Canon 70D) and a look at a shoot from 2022.  I was so eager to shoot when I first got my camera I just asked Steph to throw on a d...

Fitness and Workouts

One sub series I'll obviously include in the whole body of work is fitness, which has been her passion/hobby for a few years now. These are a couple of shots I don't think I have shared yet on this platform. 

Red vs Blue Continued

One of my favorite solo hero or money shots from the shoot. This was the last shot I got before we started packing up. This would probably make it into the print book... 

New work coming this week: maternity shoots, more video work to top tier, and some candid shots. We are also planni...

Red Vs Blue Full Gallery

This was a full production shoot, which meant I set aside a budget, planned a mood board, hired a model and an assistant, paid for a location, bought small items like makeup, body oil, the one piece suits, then lastly took an hour of the 3 hours we had to shoot to set up the lighting, and stage a...
