There’s just something mysterious about the combination of black & white photography, dark lingerie, 2 blonde models, & a concrete wall - brought to you by the fabulous AltoVenue, Holly Wolf, & yours truly.

It’s never a dull moment working with these two, as I’m constantly finding myself pushing my creative boundaries, & testing out new creative waters I have yet to dip my toes in.

So, enjoy the photos below, there’s much more where this awesomeness came from! Expect a lot from this creative team in the future!

Firstly, a huge thank-you too the model that cancelled on this shoot! One of my biggest pet peeves is when models or photographers flake on arrangements; but everything happens for a reason, & sometimes things turn out for the better. This photo shoot with Holly Wolf & Della Pham Photography is a prime example of that!

I spoke with Holly is the morning, we met up by noon, & off we went to create some magic! There was no way I was turning down the opportunity to shoot with such a talented team, no matter how short the notice.

As a lot of you know, my work is mostly glamour oriented. So here I am, to show you another side of the Love!

I can’t begin to express how great is was to switch things up for once. Holly is a fabulous model, Della is a fantastic photographer, & our make-up artist for the day, Tannia Vicky, was simply awesome!

Keep an eye out for more shoots with Holly & I!

Until next time,

Just before 2012 came to an end, I had the opportunity to shoot with Vasko, of Vasko Photography.

I’ve been a fan of his work for a few years now, so you can imagine how nervous I was finally getting the chance to work with him. However, after witnessing just how freaking awesome he was, the nerves were out the door!

It was a pleasure working with someone with such a creative mind; this definitely sits with my top favorite shooting experiences! From crawling off the sides of chairs, to “bearing” it all, this shoot had awesome written all over it.

Here’s a peek at what we did:

Towards the end of our shoot, I posed in this strangely magnificent bear costume Vasko just so happened to have laying around. This is a behind the scenes shot:

This past October, I got the chance to shoot at one of my favorite clubs, Club V in Yorkville. This is where the notorious Live Fast Die Young party is held every three months - an epic party put together by awesome people who hire me to model cupcakes, topless! Check the club out here - http://www.vclubv.com/

I had originally hired another photographer to shoot me and submit the photos for publication. However, said photographers camera broke 2 days beforehand, which ended up being a blessing in disguise! (Note to photographers: Always own more than one camera! Jeeze…).

I ended up connecting with Emanuel Pires, of Pires Photography, & we created some great images, along with having tons of fun during the process! He’s absolutely amazing for coming out so last minute, and taking advantage of a gorgeous venue with me just before his trip to Rome! Check out his work here - http://www.piresphotography.ca/

This was the second time I got together with my make-up artist, Cassandra Arruda. Cass was the first MUA I had ever worked with about a year ago, & it was amazing being able to connect with her again. I will definitely be using her for all my future projects! Check out her work here -  http://cassmakeupartistry.wix.com/home

There’s an art to being naked, one that doesn’t always have to be sexual.

This shot of me was taken by photographer Sheldon Bell. I simply love the shadowing! All of our photos turned out fantastic. 

Hope you love the love!

I had an absolutely wonderful time shooting with the Unigirl Canada team this past summer!  There were so many amazing, intelligent females I got to meet, & become great friends with in the end. It was by far one of my best modeling experiences in 2012.

Calendars out soon! In support of the Canadian Cancer Society.

The modelling world is very diverse, & with that, comes the stigma that you can only fit into one category. Whether it be the industry of fashion, fitness, glamor, or commercial, it is commonly heard that you must choose one or the other. However, I beg to differ.

I personally enjoy having the ability to move from glamor/nudes to fashion in a minute. There’s plenty of glam models out there, with fashion stats like myself, who are not only perfect for men’s magazine, but also meet the standards of a fashion model.  Whoever said you can’t do both, was sadly mistaken! Same goes for every other industry, if you love it, do it! Break the stigmas.

Forgive & forget the judgements, BE YOURSELF, & always rock your high socks! ;)

You are the only person you have to answer too, ever. People will either love you for it, or hate you for it.

Remember that. xo

It’s not often I share my implied nudes with the cyber-world, so I think it’s about time to share some of my risky business with you love bugs!

This time I teamed up with the talented Victor Vain, & we created some great images together. Below you will find a sample of our work, as well as a bit of background on the riskier side of Krystal Love!

Enjoy,

I believe the naked body is something to be adored, not something to be afraid of.

It is society and it’s definition of “morals” that instills the common fear of nakedness. We are all sexual creatures, & some are more in touch with that part of themselves than others. Once you unplug yourself from our daily way of thinking, you learn to embrace such freedom; you learn to live in love instead of in fear. There’s nothing to be ashamed of, or looked down upon when it comes to embracing the human body.

Believe it or not, my very first shoot was nude, a classy cabaret style set which I had never shared.

50 % of what I shoot is nude or implied; it’s as if I’m more comfortable in my skin than I am in clothing, there’s something so magical & free about too me, yet I held back on sharing most of it. This was a result of the force we call fear, & I was fearful of being judged.

As I continued to grow & evolve with an elevated sense of understanding, the fear diminished. It diminished by the force of love I have for myself, & for the ability to express myself sexually/emotionally through photos. It’s the freedom you feel when in your own skin that boycotts the fear of negative criticism and judgement.

Unfortunately, whether or not you boycott this fear of being judged, judgement will always exist. It is a simple part of human nature that none of us can ignore. There will always be those out there with various opinions & morals, the sad part is that each one of us thinks our own opinions/morals are above all others.

One of the biggest flaws in human thinking is the perception of right & wrong. What’s right for you may be wrong for me, & what’s wrong for you may be right for me - This is a debate that could go on forever. The human race needs to come to an understanding that everyone’s morals & ethics are different, & gain the ability to accept it.

Until then, I will be here, always prepared for the judgements, & always being myself. I’ve enjoyed the sexual aspect of art & expression since my early teens, so I have learned that it is a universal force. I hope to teach others that doing nude or implied work does not define who you are, & that freeing yourself from inhibitions is not a negative thing. We are all sex symbols!

I love to be naked! (There, I said it!)
