MerMay has been a bit of a bust this year (life is hard) but I'm working hard to get back on a regular posting schedule. So! I am posting these dry photos of the morpho gown by Bryan Humphey from Dragon Con 2025. In these photos you can really see the modifications I made to the skirt, adding petticoats and an interlining to bring the shape and color even closer to the concept art. I love how the skirt almost glows in the lights! Photo by Bryan Humphrey (Mad Scientist With A Camera) Gown by @glimmerwood Wings by @moonlitfractal Wig by @posewigs Crown by @mermaidmoonfire

Not every magical thing you see is AI! Check out this behind the scenes footage of the making of some of my favorite photos from my photo shoot with Brett Stanley Underwater during MerMagic Con 2025.

For me, modeling is as much about styling looks as it is about posing. I styled this outfit, featuring a custom Bayou Mermaid Art top, Pose Wigs wig, and Finfolk Productions' sublime Heart Of Atlantis tail, based on the sketch of the set that Brett sent out before the convention. I'm really pleased with how the whites and jewel tones pop with the set!

This was my first time modeling in a pool, rather than a tank. It was a challenge controlling my buoyancy, but we made it work and created a really fantastic set!

Video description: behind the scenes footage of the making of three underwater art photos of a mermaid with light skin, blue and purple hair, and a pearly white tail with blue, purple, and green markings, in front of a dark background of a full moon and stars, spliced with the photos themselves. In one photo the mermaid is sitting on a swing decorated with flowers and seaweed.

Fog is more dangerous than dark, as it gives the illusion of sight. . . . The ~vibes~ were just right with the fog hanging onto the mountains.
