So I think 2 weeks ago the blog homework by @missy and @charmaine was about your favorite past halloween costume and I love it, halloween is definitely one of my favorite holidays.
So I have been dressing up as an Ewok maybe for the past 3 years or so, it's my favorite of all times for sure since it keeps me warm and is a relaxed costume and I made it myself :D well most of my costumes are DIY's anyway, some pics!
My second favorite is possibly my batman costume, @radeo's set that was batman inspired was the inspiration, I have always been a fan of batman and her costume was superb but I didn't want to be the super copy cat ever so I went with the black version instead of her blue version which is amazing, I wanted to make it purple but I couldn't find the right fabric, long story short in black is easier to come up with all the needed parts.
I sew the cowl, the cape and the little bat on the front, however for this costume you gotta be fit and well, as stated in previous blogs i'm a dessert junkie <3 so, whatever here's a pic
This year I'm still going to be an Ewok (made a new orange cape, cause somehow somebody threw my original one away :( )
And will also be a couple costume with my Bf I'll be Salvador Dali and he'll be VanGogh, pictures to come.
The rest of the overdue, so life's been a bitch and honestly I don't want to make this post blog too long and sappy
Long story short, I haven't found yet a job as a visual designer, the competition is fierce, have gone to interview but haven't received phone calls afterwards, this shit has driven me to dark places I didn't know existed in my mind (excessive stress, lack of sleep, feeling defeated, emotional mess, etc) maybe I should have done a master in photography or stayed as an engineer in undergrad, IDK at this point, all I know is that the professional world as a designer is more taunting than I expected and has created tons of self doubt and as a foreigner if you are not top talent you are dismissed quicker, I still laugh a lot, the craziness rounds about most of the time for sure hahaha
besides that I'm glad to be shooting more often than before and I'm bringing you some previews
however, the rest of the sets i have to edit will have to wait for 4 weeks since my thesis review is in 4 weeks and i'm scared since i failed las time.
this is how my next 4 weeks will kind of look like (boring fyi)
and the previews <3

The lovely organizer of the Tahoe Shootfest @astr0 she's a babe <3 We have a cute breakfast set for the spring most likely
@nubia and I shot a sexy/witchy set for Zivity, was very quick but she's a great model and also an amazing human being, I can't explain it very well but she just have this very warm/zen vibe to her <3 and she helped me so much, all those sets wouldn't be as great without her help behind my bouncer
And last but not least my last year collab with @barbary is now out as well in Zivity, so you guys should go check it out or get the 30 days trial, this girl has the most toned amazing bum/legs I have seen.
