Raven Rockette is one of my new favorite models. I met her at at a pool party in LA with Catie Parker and then I ran into her again at Exxxotica in NJ and we took some pictures in a car. In April finally we got to shoot! We drove to the abandoned water park Rock-A-Hula in the desert between Vegas and LA and took some truly epic photos. The problem is that I like the photos so much that I don’t want to publish them yet. I am still hoping to find a cool place to publish them. (Any photo editors out there get at me!)

Fortunately Raven just happened to be traveling to LA on the last day that I was in town. I somehow convinced her to shoot with me at 5:30am on the roof of Superchief’s new space in DTLA. (By the way, I have a photo in their next NYC show!) I had just shot a girl at their space two days earlier and we went up on the roof as the sun was setting. I realized that it would be so much better to shoot there during sunrise and Raven was totally up for it! Sadly the day we shot happened to be the one cloudy morning in LA history so not only was the light not as awesome as I was hoping but it was actually pretty cold. Raven was freezing but she was a champ and sucked it up for the most part and we got some rad shots.

When the shoot was over I dropped her back off at our pal Andy San Dimas‘ place and I headed straight to the airport returned to NYC having slept less than four hours in the last 60. I was pretty much a shell of a man, luckily I had planned a mini vacation right when I got back and two weeks later I am back to my only mildly sleep deprived self!

Thanks to Raven and Superchief for the awesome 6am photo shoot! Can’t wait to do more awesome stuff with both of you!
