Sara Vio’s Shredded Shirt

Sara Vio modeled my shredded shirt I took inspiration from Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. She arranged two photoshoots with my design and by the time I got it back in the mail it already sold! I recommend Sara to model your product. Sara delivers quality images, returns product undamaged and in a timely manner. Aside from being a model she is also a talented makeup artist.

Want a shredded shirt of your own? I can make you a custom shirt in any color and size for $35 + tax. While you’re at it, check out my etsy sale and don’t forget to use coupon code “KRAMPUS10″ for 10% off!

Cutthroat Kristina in California

One month ago I mailed a design to Cutthroat Kristina, a beautiful tattooed pin-up model. She did a model tour to Los Angeles to shoot with 20 photographers including Emilie Collier. I love the styling she did for the shoot, look at those earrings! If you are in the Northern California area on March 20-22 you can have the opportunity to work with both of these talented ladies! For only $250 you get a 3 hour photo session with Emilie that includes free hair and makeup done by Kristina and no limit on looks or photos!
