So last Summer, I was posting up some of my work at the time and I got a message from a model living in Hollywood, CA. She was planning on being in Atlanta that December to be a bridesmaid in her friend’s wedding who just happened to be a model I had worked with a couple of years ago. I believe Hollywood is the farthest anyone has traveled to work with me. Granted I wasn’t the only photographer she worked with while in Atlanta, but it’s a nice thought regardless.

She arrives on time, fresh and ready to get started. As the makeup artist is doing her thing, I start setting up and get to chatting with her. Turns out that aside from being a latex model for Fierce Couture, she is also the singer for a band called Satiate, and a horror movie screamer.

She does voice effects and screams for a lot of horror and action movies that have been out in theaters for the past few years. She said she lost count of how many she’s in. Turns out her agent just sells the samples to various production studios and cuts her a check whenever it gets used. I thought that was pretty cool, so being the YouTube addict that I am I show her the Wilhelm Scream Compilation. I told her that one day someone will make the TC Scream Compilation. If you’ve never seen it before, I guarantee that you’ll not only be able to hear, but also identify the Wilhelm Scream in almost every movie you see for the rest of your life. I’ve probably seen about 10+ movies that aren’t in the compilation that have the scream. The most recent film I saw that had it was Jumper.

I decide to use her in my Septem series. Unfortunately, the Septem shot she is in isn’t quite ready, but the rest of her shots are. =]

I believe all of the wardrobe she modeled came from Fierce Couture. Aside from her having the most brilliant hair I’ve seen on a model, I had a lot of fun retouching these shots because of the textured clothing.
