Auroraa In Oakland Again

Auroraa/Dasha, Oakland, 2025Less than a week after I had shot with Erin Divine, I had another chance to work with Auroraa with whom I’ve worked many times. She was just back from traveling in Russia and Istanbul and she had rented a place in the Oakland hills. Unfortunately, I was suffering badly with my sciatica so it was a challenge shooting (including just getting down the stairs to the place where she was staying). Nevertheless, we managed to experiment with some creative ideas. I had brought my new LED which provided some interesting lighting variations. Also, Auroraa had started utilizing ChatGPT in an interesting way to suggest settings and poses after she had fed in pictures of the space and some prompts with esthetic goals we might try. It was a new experience for me. All in all a productive session even though I was pretty hobbled in my physical activity.
