MY PHOTO SHOOT with {SANTE D’ORAZIO}

Posted by Karin | Filed under Karin ... Ma Maison

Remembering back to my photo shoot with Sante D’Orazio – November 16th, the morning of … I woke up super early… headed straight to the shower to try to compose myself, I needed to relax. My emotions were fluttering with so much excitement. I soaked under the warm water spraying down at me for what seem to be an hour but really 20 minutes. I had to find that poise I needed to carry on with my day. I finally stepped out of the misty washroom and I called my partner Raoul – he was joining me and I needed to coordinate with him. While I dressed, I also gathered all my toys, trinkets, shoes, stockings, and my corset. All the things that I might use or need for my photo shoot.

I am shooting with Sante … I am shooting with Sante - Is all I kept chanting in my head!

BEHIND THE SCENES {SANTE D’ORAZIO}

Posted by Karin | Filed under Karin + Raoul TV

Production by Creative Control

Sexy… What is sexy? “Sexy is something a little bit more sensual, mysterious that creates a wanting desire!” - Sante.

Shoot day with Mr. D’Orazio – Sante showed up on the set dressed in a black shirt, hot leather pants, and a sexy hot pinky ring. He is, without a doubt, one of the most sexiest photographers around today. It is an interesting fact that photographers always capture a part of themselves when shooting their subject. One can always guess a bit of their personality is in their style of work! It is not surprising that Sante always makes his models look so smoldering hot. He knows what to say and how to say it. You immediately respond by surrendering to him and his camera; you give it all to him!

My experience working with Sante was a complete rush… Very empowering!

Thank you Sante !!!

xoxo Karin
