So I did a blind buy and got a swimsuit here so I can get back to water aerobics again. If the size ain't wonky, I want to get started in building up my pinup wardrobe again next to Temu.

I have no problem with this. I prefer this over Starbucks but the only Peet's I see is at the airport.

"Our dreams can die.
Still here and still...
Alive!"

- Chrissy Constanza

I like to try and keep things light hearted on my blog. You know me. But I have been having thoughts...

There has been a shift in me since I have been unleashing fire in terms of editorial photography. As Avatari would say to me, I'm a "Creative Force of Nature" here in Arizona. I have been the female photographer to look out for publication wise in terms of my editorial style photography.

But mainstream magazines like Rolling Stone or Vogue won't look at my work because I don't beauty edit because beauty editing is what makes bookoo bucks but I'm an advocate for no beauty editing.

I don't even think people would pay for editorial photography with no beauty editing to be honest. I only have my inner circle to help me keep creating content and they know who they are. They believe in what I do and what I stand for.

Photographing weddings and general portraits doesn't make me happy anymore.

So I got a favor to ask if you: Once I'm done with "The Unfolded", I'm going to start tagging mainstream magazines on social media till they see me. I'm wondering if you can help me by tagging them too?

This will be a small and mighty shoot this November! Will do my selection of 4 September 15!

Okay, friends! I am slowly starting a brain storm. This November, I'm bringing back my legendary black and white photography back this November. I have not gone through the process of selecting a date yet but I'm planning on doing it after my group shoot "The Unfolded" this September.

My question to you is: which of these images are you drawn to in terms of the photography itself? It might possibly sway my choice on shoot site! 😁

I will nab the other page when it becomes available but True Icon Magazine is coming out with The Ignite Issue and I'm featured!

Also the cat is out of the bag: I'm out as creator Shae V Mischief for the first publication ever! 🥰

It was about time that my creator persona took place.

- Avatari threw my pinup persona Shae V Mischief into the universe with so much good intent.
- Bossbaby Miller brings it down and addresses me as Madame Mischief

And it snowballs into Shae V Mischief not only being a pinup. But a creator.

- If you are still with me after all these years. Thank you.

- For those of you who stayed by me and actually comprehend that my production job messed me up. I love you.

I'm fighting to come back. I promise.

For those who are still wanting in front of my camera after I have fought myself for 4 years living in Mesa. You are the True Visual Mischief Elite.

Creator Shae V Mischief comes out to play September 13!

Howdy, folks! Just giving you an update on me. Those of you who personally know me already know. But these are for the others.

- I quit my overnight production job back on April 29. The combo of juggling an overnight job and having a social life made me very sick on top of working in an old building with very little air circulation. It was especially bad summer of 2023 when we had those 90 days of 105+ degree temperatures on top of recovery from a 12 year abusive relationship. My mentality was breaking, I lost my desire to attempt to go support my friends due to how sick I was, and lost friendships in the process. And my mental health drove me to where all of my 3 years worth of pinup attire got damaged due to me not keeping up with the upkeep of my old place. So I had to force myself to move back to North Phoenix with my dad for a while and rehabilitate. My left knee was twisted for a good while and having some lower back pain. My left knee is back to normal but I need to get on insurance to go see a pain specialist.

- I start a job as a teacher's aide Early August for the upcoming school year but I'm going to try to get under the table cash by going to work for a temp service and attempt to donate plasma again till it's time to start my job as a teacher's aide.

- So if at least this job with the temp service goes well, I want to return behind the camera starting with 12 Hours of Pain & Purpose Spinathon this July and I'll lead the charge for a new group shoot called The Unfolded this September.

- Once I start my teacher aide job this August, I want to join a pinup pageant again. And it will be with Miss Pinup AZ after the kindness of the host and founder of this group, Kathy Madole-Esposito has shown me by donating a dress.

I'm okay, everyone! I just need to learn to take help when it's offered and not be stubborn and think nobody is out to get me. I love you all who have stuck by me.

I'm coming back. I promise. 🥹

Hi, everyone! You are probably wondering why I'm posting little ol me here on my photography page. 😅 Well, remember my pinup persona, Shae V Mischief? Let me tell you a story in 2 ways...

The short version: Visual Mischief needs the mastermind behind the amazing images you see and her beauty to match her inside and the photography she creates.

The long version: Last year, I led an all red themed group shoot to celebrate the release of Power by Avatari . We even went great lengths to put together a behind the scenes video of all that greatness. And the intention in that sweet video he sent us calling me by my pinup persona and a "creative force of nature". And my legendary Visual Mischief Elite calls me by Shae now and "Madame Mischief" and "Miss Mischief". It was high time for me to get named by the universe who fell in love with me as a creator. 😁

So I get behind the camera this September. Clue is: we are staining some dresses with very colorful paint! 🥰
