I am Viva Van Story and I love capturing the true beauty in women. I believe in capturing beauty naturally and not forcing it. What you see in my images is what I see in front of me with natural lighting or a few cheap lights! People enjoy my work and that means more to me then impressing models with high tech equipment. My favorite images

thanks.. I'm actually a terrible writer.. ask Sparkly Devil... she's my ghost writer on anything important. xx I am really bad at expressing myself with words.

you are not - i think this is very well written, actually! it's been neat watching you grow & evolve as a photographer over the past few years :) i definitely look forward to what you have in store for the future!

[vivavanstory]

[vivavanstory]

thanks.. I feel the same for you.. and I'm actually jealous of how well you know the business part of this business.

I'm not a photographer. I'm a film maker and an just a person that appreciates nice art...

I think your work is great... and I say that as a fellow artist and a fan of artist.

[vivavanstory]

Can I see your films anywhere?

[niugnep]

ATM, no... once I get back home to New Orleans, yes.

ha ha.. I've been telling everyone I need time to go shopping. When you edit every night and shoot every weekend you run out time to find more stuff! lol I'll keep that in mind.

it's cool.. I'm sick of my red backdrop as well. I'm taking sometime off shooting while I put time into my show and website to do new sets for my winter shoots.
