You Spin Me Round Like a Record Baby.

I'm getting really tired of having so much hair. I know, it's only chin-length but I miss my rad pixie cuts and fauxhawks. It's only a matter of time really....

Until I chop it off enjoy some photos while it's still long(ish).

These were taken at Vinal Edge Record Store on Veterans Memorial in Houston. Go there. They have so many rad vinyls. I was tempted to buy some after the shoot was over.

The Fabulous Life.

So, what does a glamorous fetish model do on her birthday? Go bowling of course!


This weekend a pack of my nearest and dearest got together and hit the lanes in a 5 hour long bowl-o-rama that got very competitive. We had a blast talkin' trash and taunting one another relentlessly. At first I was kicking ass and taking names on my Hello Kitty notepad, but then the boys came up with a plan to stop the vicious beating they were getting by a little girl like myself and they started buying me shots. I was drunk as hell by then end and throwing some seriously bad gutterballs!


My muscles are still sore, but it was the most fun I have ever had on my birthday!


Tonight I did Ron Davis's Photographer & Model podcast interview and hopefully I didn't come off as too lame. We'll see when it hit the iTunes airwaves in a couple weeks. In the meantime, enjy a few photographic highlights from my birthday party!

Photo of the Week!

*Click on Photo for Full Size*


This week's photo is a little different. It's a simple snapshot that I took with a self time to showcase 2 things.

1. My amazing new hairstyle by David Lowry at Salon Matos in Spring, TX.
2. My New wrist tattoos done by Mike Graves at Shamrock Studios.


The tattoos are swallows and they each have a name inside them. One says "Mom", the other "Dad".

I got these tattoos to honor the two people in my life who have always been so loving and supportive of me in all my endeavors. I mean, let's face it - no parent dreams that one day their daughter will be a fetish model, but despite my alternative lifestyle and career choice my parents have made it very clear how proud they are of me. It warms my heart.


Many people have horror stories about their fucked up childhoods. Not me. I grew up in a happy home in the country where Dad was home at 6 o'clock every evening and Mom had dinner on the table by 7. We lived in the same house my entire life and my memories of my childhood are full of laughter, love and good times.


Sadly, just over 3 years ago, my parents got divorced. This hurt me to the core and turned my world upside down. It still hurts everyday. I suppose these tattoos are my way of keeping them together forever.

Photo of the Week!

Okay, I realize I'm a few hours late posting this week's photo, but that's only because I was out getting tattooed today! I got two beautiful swallows on my wrists to represent my Mom and Dad whom I love more than anyone in the world! I wanted to pay tribute to them because they gave me such a wonderful happy childhood and continue to be supportive and loving. They always tell me how proud they are of me!

But you want to know more about the photo, don't you? This was taken in the wilderness of Cypress, Texas by Shooter 88 of Fotowork Fotography. He also did the incredible post work and this photo is sooo artistic! I just love it.....don't you?

Like a Virgin.

My birthday is less than 2 weeks away. I'm a Virgo, which basically means I know eveything about everything and before we're done I'll have you believing the same thing.

I am not the least bit excited about getting older. But I am excited about the party I'm having! It will be a fabulous high class event of....bowling. I love to bowl and even have my own ball. I've talked all of my friends into bowling with me and I'm super psyched!

But before my birthday comes I have a jam packed schedule full of photoshoots, the TrueBlood season finale party I am hosting, dentist appointments and bachelorette parties. It's going to be a wild September.

To top it all off, I just found out that I'll be going to CryptiCon. A Horror convention at which I will be helping promote Spirit Camp! You know, the horror movie I star in that is hopefully coming out very soon! http://www.spiritcampmovie.com/


Love,
Roxy

Photo of the Week!

This week's photo is from a shoot last week with Fotoworks Fotography. The water came from a well and was so cold I could barely stop my teeth chattering long enough to get the shot! But we did and it has turned out to be one of my fave shots ever! I rarely get the opportunity to shoot outdoors and even more rare is the opportunity to shoot soaking wet, a look I absolutely love! I hope you love it too!

Wet Hot American Summer

Well kids...summer is almost over. This is the busiest time of year for little ol' me.

Not only is my birthday in exactly 2 weeks (yikes!) but one of my best friends is getting married and then there's the Renaissance Festival (which I attend several times in full costume). There's also Halloween (My favorite holiday of the year!) and I've just learned that I might be heading to California in November for the AFM Festival.

It's sure to be a wild ride.

Been chatting with Philip Warner of Lithium Picnic Studios lately and hopefully soon we are going to set up a photoshoot! I learned about his work from my buddy Troy Goodrich of the band Leatherbal and have been a huge fan ever since. Shooting with Philip would be a full circle moment of awesomeness for me.

Next weekend I am hosting a small dinner party for the season finale of TrueBlood, the sexy and bloody HBO series based on Charlaine Harris's Sookie Stackhouse novels. Then my Mommy is coming to visit me! My Mom lives out of state and I always get super excited when she comes because she is truly my best friend in the world.

Yesterday I did my first on-camera interview with Ahead Shot, which is a show about local film-makers and actors. I was super nervous and pretty much think I fucked the whole thing up. I like to think I'm usually a pretty eloquent person, but yesterday I felt completely tongue-tied and ridiculous. Oh well. At least I met some very cool people!

Well, my photoshoots are slowing down a bit this month because I have so many parties to attend, but here's a little treat from my shoot last Wednesday with Shooter88 of Fotowork Fotography. Enjoy!

Photo of the Week!

*click for larger image*


This weeks photo come from a set I did in New York City with photographer Brian Burk. Let me tell you, showing up at a subway station in Brooklyn in the middle of the afternoon wearing a ballgown can attract some attention. It was the first time I had to model with a crowd of on-lookers.
It was pretty cool. Some people snapped photos of me, others were trying to figure out who the hell I was.

I love this shot. The gown is a vintage creation by Fred Perlberg and the photographer supplied the gorgeous pearl jewelry.

CHeck back every Wednesday for a new Photo of the Week!
