Dawn Xiana “BLADE” Moon
Sword Singer of The Newport
Perished of Shrieking Eels 😔

Happy Birthday to my fellow Virgo, Dawn Xiana Moon!! I might have two bajillion live show stills of Dawn, but these images from the Newport Crew project really capture her badassery. Her portrait hangs in the hallway of Newport Theater amongst our crew!

Enjoy this sweaty post-bike PSA with a broken emotional support mic, and then nab the last spots to this Sunday’s PICTURE DAY at The Newport Studio! Link in my bio!

Don’t forget to send this to a photographer you think would like to put on their own discounted portrait day with our studio! Artists deserve to be paid, but sometimes we can afford to give folks a little break so they, too, can be a professional artist in these times!

The iconic Pettie Spaghetti wearing the iconic biblically accurate angel headpiece by Josh 🪽

This is a model I trust to pull up with a suitcase of outfit choices I’ve never seen before, and have something that works perfectly. 😩

I did have to learn some new photoshop techniques for this, but it was worth it. 🫡
