We needed a reliable and skilled photographer to snap shots at our parties. lil Panda recommended Taylor Flash. The kid’s got talent and tells it like it is. Love his steez and love this shot he took during a shoot for Fetish Authentic.

I bring with me the scent of china musk and sage. I slink past your photograph of Jack and pet Lark, your hairless dog. I find a smoke and take a drag off your confusion. Minki coughs, she says that you are late for the photo shoot. The girls are waiting. She says we should tie you up first. We’ll let you take pictures later. She pouts, then hands us a glass of bliss. I think that if the first sip is joy, the second is gladness, the third is serenity, the fourth is madness, the fifth is ecstasy, then the sixth sip is whatever this is, I feel, when I’m with you.

I had just stolen this vintage pink nightie from my mother’s closet… I was feeling whimsical on the way to my rooftop shoot with Ray Thomas and grabbed a pink Lily at the corner bodega. The nightie and lily combined with the romantic glow, parted lips, tilted head….

I was invited to dance, scantily clad on tabletops, to christen a new space in Bushwick - a 3 Day Extravaganza. Leather gloves felt taut against my skin as absinthe lingered on my tongue. Photographer David Troncoso snapped this shot and Nutritious put the finishing touches on it.

I came across Jan Baracz’s photography at a gallery event years ago. I took home a postcard with one of his images that caught my eye, and tacked it up on my wall with the intention of connecting with him. Later, we were introduced by mutual friends and eventually set up this shoot on the Lower East Side. The concept was simple: an empty room, white walls, and a mirror. This is one of my favorite images from the shoot. I was excited that Nutritious chose this as the cover art for this 2012 Exclusive Mix.

In honor of Easter…. “Christ is Risen! She is Risen Indeed!” Suspended above Columbus Circle and Central Park in Manhattan, New York City.

Naked on an empty beach, well not quite…I spy two young boys hiding behind palm trees in the distance. Even so, this feels like Freedom.

Head to toe, you had me at hello. This is an image from a series shot in Pennsylvania by the lovely and talented Britt Nemeth, an established landscape and event photographer. This was her first time shooting something of this nature and I love how it turned out. Special shout out to Kate Carrara for styling the shoot.

Modern day foot binding…Reminds me of that Nancy Sinatra song only stilettos instead of boots. I rarely wear such creatures….I reserve them for photo shoots and runway shows.

Bushwick, Brooklyn. Sidewalk skipping, shadow dancing, sunshine prancing, praying preying hustlin’ swaying…Rainbow bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.

Photographer Ray Thomas was all booked up that day and I was busy the rest of the week, so we decided to pull an all-nighter while he still had access to this decadent space in lower Manhattan. After several different set and style changes, I decided to bathe off the make up. Why stop taking pictures now?

This makes me think… Grecian statue, white marble with warm eyes. Classical elements juxtaposed against the black PVC choker, nipple & navel ring, revealing hints of fetishism. Kevin O’Leary captured this image in his Astoria studio.

Sweet soft lips and pink nipples and lashes and wisps of hair…and breasts, and…
