Busy little thing.

Leaving for DC tomorrow, first stop, shooting with Sandy Jones! And then hopefully Mickle Design Werks.

Then hanging out with PK Brazil at his place, Baltimore for Otakon the next day!

Asylum's Wii Party that night.

Shooting with Renee and Michael Woodward on Sunday. A very very busy weekend.

Then Monday hopefully shooting with someone I won't mention, in being scared I might be getting my hopes up way too much! Haha. Or possibly Tuesday.

Joseph Balestra arrives from NH on Tuesday, the mayhem will begin. Along with the epicness. Staying in Richmond/VA Beach area the first week, and then Philadelphia the second. :D Haven't quite started booking for Philly yet, but I am pretty damn excited for it.

Photo by Lindsey Heath from a few months ago. It was quite seriously me just in a normal day. Enjoy. :]


Need to start packing, and stop being lazy.

Oh and I got my haircut last night by the wonderful Jen Jennings. Just cut my dead ends off, and my bangs are super short again.

Whhhhyyy

Are making travel plans so frikkin' hard? Gr. I also really need to give in and get a credit card.

I wish I could go to Philadelphia this weekend! :[ but I'm gonna go to DC instead. It's closer to home and much easier. Haha. :D Oh wells, what can you do?

Joseph Balestra will be here in one week! Book him if you'd like! We'll be in Philadelphia for one weekend, and all around VA/MD for the rest of the time he's here. :3

We plan on being crazy awesome the entire time, which won't be too hard, cause I mean, look at us. amirite.

Picking up Mojokiss tomorrow from the bus station! Excited to meet and work with him! Like crazy!

Worked with Lost For Words yesterday, but we sadly had to cut short because I got stung on my wrist by a wasp! I even asked the wasp why he struck me in such a way, I still don't know how it happened. But geez it hurt, and swelled. Ew.

Here's a crappy webcam photo I took yesterday before my shoot, in my new bedroom, which sadly isn't quite finished yet.


Big bows are love, so is lace. And cute black flats with big bows on them.

Need to plan DC this weekend, my bf needs to wake his ass up and talk to me or something! So hectic today, and it's my day off. Lameeeee.

Poor.

Been shooting quite a bit lately. Still trying to figure out trips and the such. It's really awful not having the internet at my disposal at all times. :[

Need to fix that, somehow or another. Wish I had the money to just pay the bill every month, but I sadly don't.

But I did put the money down on my MM account, or am going to, once it goes into Mike's bank account. So that's cool.

If you'd like, I will start taking donations to get myself the internet every month, also, I need some new stuff to shoot in (I really want latex), and if you'd like to make a suggestion as to what you would like to see me shoot in (don't say nothing, that's not nice!), you can e-mail me at racheldashaemodel@yahoo.com.

Headline it "outfit blog" or something, so I know it's not spam. :D And if you'd like to make a donation, here is my paypal.








Also, I will mention you (if you'd like) in my blog, myspace, deviantart journal, livejournal, or if it's a donation for an outfit, I will credit you for donating for the outfit in anywhere the photos make go up.

And it can help me with trips in the future, etc, etccccccccc.

On with the photos, oh, and I need to post some other stuff up from the before shoot, where Marcus Hyde showed me this huge print he did of me! I'm also the front of his business cards, which made me excited. >D The little things make me happy in life. (not little to me though, actually a huge deal in my head, but some people just think I'm silly.)

Zivity.com


My zivity account is back up and running, so add me please! RachelDashae@Zivity.com

Debating on whether or not to put the money down to get 20 more pictures a month on MM. I don't own a credit card, so until I can go to the bank and put some money into my bf's account, I have time to think about it, haha.

Oh, and happy 4th of July everyone! Gonna go out soon with my family and see fireworks, waiting for my mom to finish cookin up some yummy burgers. :]

NJ/NY in two weeks, that's if we can get the gas and stuff to ggooo. :[ I'm crossing my fingers!

Joseph Balestra will be here in a little over two weeks. Philadelphia the weekend after! Gotta book!

Possible San Fransisco trip at the end of August, into the beginning of September. Sweet jesus.

And Boston/ Southern NH possibly at the beginning of August. Mmm, fun, fun.

New stuff!

First from Corwin Prescott back in May when I went to Philadelphia. I hearts Corwin, he's fucking awesome, and that's the only way to describe him, haha. I got to shoot with the fox, he's such a ladies man.

.... Ladies.



Next is a promo shot for zivity.com for Ynot Photography. Not sure when the set will go up, but I'm gonna hope for soon, and hopefully it'll be bitchin. These pictures are teh sex, I really didn't even know I had it in me! Seriously!



Next shots are from when I went to Boston/NH. Shot with the really cool Karen Jerzyk Photography. She was really cool, and we snuck into some kick ass locations. I'm hoping to work with her again if I go back up there. :]

That dress was insanity, and she made the hat I'm wearing in these shots! They're pretty creepy, and I look like a little kid. Haha.




Mmmm. Now food's done and I'm starving! Gotta get some strength if I'm gonna start blowin crap up!

Brand new day


Need to start thinking more about my health lately! Need to get back into the swing of eating better and such. :] Shouldn't be too hard, I've only been straying for a few weeks, but I can already feel it taking a toll on my body. Booooo.

4th of July tomorrow! What's everybody doing? My boyfriend and I are going to spend time with my family. :] Yayness.

Trying to schedule things, booking more and more in advance. It's nice to have the internet, jesus christ. Too bad I have to go back to my house with no internet soon. :[

Buuuuttt, a photo update.

Another shot by Brian Burk, with me wearing Victoria Velvet's work. Which I can't put enough stress on how completely gorgeous it is! Make-up by Designs by LJ, and hair by Danielle Downs. Ennjoooyy! :D



Next shots are from JohnnyB in Baltimore. We worked together after the Baltimore M+G at his studio. With sexy purple latex! We had a few people hold it, and constantly joked about me being a slingshot! Lawl. It would've been pretty easy to fling me, so yeah. Good times nonetheless.




Pretty short post today. I've gotten myself caught up on a lot, so yay for that. :]

RVAMAG


I was pleasantly surprised when a friend of mine messaged me through myspace, and said he had seen me in RVAMAG. Which is a small magazine spread across Richmond city, I've been known to randomly pick them up in coffee shops, or look at the articles online. :D It's very awesome, and local.

Kimberly Frost was featured in their photography section and she has a full interview, they used a few of the photos she took of me for the article. It's up online, and in news stands based around the Richmond area. Veeerry excited! I thought it was so cool.

Have just finished getting my car fixed up, and sitting with the boyfriend. Been pretty relaxing, I had a shoot yesterday, and we went to the beach. Today the bf and I are gonna go and hang out with some friends at their pool, then tomorrow back to Richmond to spend 4th of July with my family. Hopefully it'll relieve a little stress that's been raging for the past few weeks.

Some more shots from Matt Mullen, from the Primal Stare Studios workshop. All sets made by owners of Primal Stare, make-up by ladyxbird, and hair by Abby.






Next shot (or shots) is from the amazing Dana Tarr. Who was an absolute pleasure when I went to visit Boston a month ago. He was a lot of fun, he took us to a really neat little concert thing, we shot around, and showed us this crazy vintage store! I need to live in there, it made my heart soar! Haha.

Wardrobe was provided by Chris at Circa Vintage Clothing. The dress was a 60's or 70's middle school cheerleader outfit.


First shots back from when I went to the Patapsco State Park meet and greet in Baltimore. I shot with Mickle Design Werks, hair and make-up by Faces by Tonja Johnson. They were both such a huge pleasure to work with. Shooting this was a blast though, haha.

Public parks, semi nudity, and kids on bikes, obviously don't mix. I heard "OMG, that girl is in her underwear!" from a distance. Eeesh.



Yay. Now for a shot from the awesome Joseph Balestra. Who is actually coming and visiting the sooouuffff in a few weeks. He'll be here for two weeks shooting, book him, and I'll be driving, haha. We plan on a trip to Philadelphia, and possibly driving back up to NH. Oh snap.

We took this while I was up in the Boston/NH area, Joseph was kind enough to drive me everywhere, shoot with me, and just make sure I was taken care of. :D He's awesome in other words! We went to a beach in NH, even with it being cloudy, windy, and 45 degrees outside, it was a beautiful beach. I'd love to see it in the heart of the summer, I'm sure it's gorgeous.
