Hey SG loves!
I wanted to write up a blog post about my most recent set that has entered the queue, both as a model and photographer. Maybe a few of you have seen a few things floating around about the new contest SG is running, #SGMerchContest!
My lovely friend @diamant told me first about the new contest and we straight away got to brainstorming all the ideas, locations, looks etc we could do. So much goes into creating a set and it's super exciting when we are given a prompt such as this one to start our toes wiggling! @diamant actually has a blog post that goes into some depth of what goes into planning sets, you can find it here! Once we worked out what merch pieces we were pulling out (more on that later), booking where we wanted to shoot and other small bits and pieces, it was just a matter of waiting for shoot day...
Both the two sets we created, were obviously centred around the bomb merch you can find here at SG! Any excuse to pull out our merch again (not that it's ever really put away!) was a good enough one for us. It's also probably one of the comfiest outfits I have ever shot in too. I went first as a model, and after some light direction for @diamant around the camera from me, she ended up absolutely blowing me away with what she created. Hands up if you'd like to see her behind the lens more, because I sure do! Now, I don't want to give too much away but here's a little sneak peek of my set:
I am SO excited for you guys to see this one! I honestly feel like both the images and the experience really exampled what Suicide Girls is about for me. I felt so authentically me and it was shot by a friend that I would have never made if it weren't for this community, you can definitely see how euphoric I was during all of it.

Next was @diamant infront of the lens and this babe absolutely killed it, watching her in her element never fails to leave me in awe. She even created the concept for the name on the spot! Here's a little teaser:
Because we love you guys so much and these sets were centred around SG and everything that encompasses it, we wanted to give back to you all! We shot some polaroids during our sets that we would love to give out to a member that comments below because you guys deserve it. To grab some of @Diamant's polaroids, head over to her blog post!
As always, so much love to all of you and this community!
