I know what they say about spring showers, but the weather lately is taking this a little too far. I’m dying to see the sun!

If you’re not familiar with the photography work of Travis Haight, you’re really missing out.  A perfect example of his stellar work are the shots he took at the Havasu Tattoo Show.

Lurk Travis’ Facebook, visit his website, and follow up him Twitter – and thank me later.

Not only can Corwin Prescott photograph a tattooed “supermodel” like nobody’s business, but he takes amazing landscape shots as well.

By the way, both of these pictures are for sale in his online shop.

We’ve touched on the topic a few times here on Tattoo Snob. While Kevin & I are not presently authorities on the topic, I think it’s safe to say most adults appreciate photos of people they can identify with visually showing off their real pride and joy: a child.

Jamie Siever is a Philadelphia-based portrait photographer whose primary focus is picturing babies with their tattooed parents. If any of you out there fit the bill, I suggest shooting her an email and looking into capturing a precious moment with your wee one. I’ve heard they have a tendency to grow up before you know it.

Alissa Brunelli and Sunshine Pace shot some new pictures representing their newest venture, Powder Puff Pinups.

From what I understand, Powder Puff Pinup is a consultant company that will assist any female (or male I suppose) in creating the ultimate pinup photo shoot. The photography, wardrobe, environment, poses, hair and make up, and even facial expressions are all covered between Alissa and Sunshine. The website has additional details, and a sample of their work is below, featuring the lovely Radeo.

This could be a fun gift just in time for the holiday season. I know plenty of guys that would be excited to see their special someone in pinup pictures, especially if they can keep the pictures to themselves.

At first glance the matching outfits of these two beautiful ladies made me think they were selling something, and I thought to myself “I’m buying whatever they’re selling.”

I realize they’re probably not hustling anything since they’re wearing matching Social Distortion shirts, standing in front of a bathroom… but I’m still sold.

One of our beautiful regulars, Patton, suffered a tragic loss over the weekend. Here are the details, and a link to the prints being offered:

I recently lost a good friend and co-worker, and with his death his family is in a state of financial crisis. He was an absolute gentleman of truly dynamic character, and amused every person he came into contact with on a daily basis. This has been a terrible loss for us as well as his family, he left behind five children, without a will, life insurance or assets for his children. They are in need of school supplies and clothes, as well as funds for his funeral.

All profits from these prints are going towards this.
All prints are 8×10, and $15

If there are any images you would like as prints that are not listed, please contact me at spookypatton@gmail.com

thank you

In case you missed it, Kevin spent the weekend at Ink N Iron in Long Beach. I knew he had spoken with Julian Murray about shooting for the Tattoos & Tentacles project, but wasn’t expecting to see the results so soon.

So here you go ladies, a picture of my best friend without pants on. Because that’s not awkward, or anything…

I’m obviously not in any condition to come up with something witty, so I’m just posting a picture of a ridiculously hot girl instead. So there.

Model: Makani Terror
Photographer: Ernst Alexander

A believer in what, you ask?

Whatever’s necessary for me to look at this photo without feeling like a total creep… which is probably not possible. That Viva Van Story is one lucky lady to be shooting photos of man-gods like this.
