::: LONESOME WIND ::: by Carey Quinton Haider featuring SH+LS!!!!














photographer: Carey Quinton Haider
model: Skye Sengelmann


Woke up early from a call by model Skye Sengelmann asking if she could pretty please grab one of our studded tanks, Chloe's vintage fur hat and meet her in the graveyard: STAT.
This is how punk-patriot Americana photog Carey Quinton Haider rolls....off the cuff, spur-of-the-moment bad+ass amazingness.
I hopped in the truck, drove thru the open cemetery gates of another overcast NW wintry morning to meet Skye, Corey and a wild-eyed bearded man on a hog.
Even though i didn't stay for the shoot - i knew then and there it was gonna be something we definitely wanted to be a part of. 
Motorcycles, leather, cigarettes, fur, studs & babes.....Carey creates the kind of ride we're lookin for.

When we first met Skye Singlemann, a crystal-swinging, pole-dancig, hippie love child from Hawaii, we knew right away that we had to do a Stevie Nicks inspired photoshoot with her. It's not just the way she looks, it's her wild child spirit, the way she dances, and her down-for-anything attitude. 
With an Olympus OM-1 from the 1960's with a remote trigger and few old prism filters, our photog Amanda Smith brought Stevie's Crystal Visions to life.
Cheers to an amazing day + a even better crew!
