Michaela is the only model I’ve ever paid to shoot with me.
I called Michaela in the spring of 2018 because I needed a model for my new T-shirts. A crisp $100 bill, lunch, and 4 hours later… this is what we had. And I’ve never been happy with it. It was wintertime in Bozeman, MT. The colors were dark and dreary. It was freezing. But it was all I had, so I had go with it. They were a nice young couple. They even invited me over to their place after the shoot for some chill out time with their friends.
I wanted to shoot Michaela nude, but her husband was there and I don’t think he was on board with it. I didn’t push it. I wanted her nude in the woods wearing only my T-shirt. It would’ve been awesome. But we half-assed it. Literally. Lesson learned. Never again will I let my art be compromised by psychological boundaries. Go big or go home.
