Gallery: The Happy Phantom (Roen Photography)

"And if I die today, I'll be the happy phantom!" - Tori Amos

I love Halloween, and so when I was planning my Peacock and Plum shoots for my upcoming CLUE calendar, I had to throw in a quick change to get some shots that would be perfect for spooky season - but with a glam twist!

The dress was a cheap XPlusWear find, and I blinged up the bones with a ton of AB crystals and pearls!

Angie was on hand for the shenanigans, and I got a couple of fun BTS shots of her as well!

We didn't shoot a lot of this look because it was getting late in the day (this was our second shoot (we did two shoots with two different makeup looks in one day!) and it was windy as hell! Angie did a little fluffy of the coat for some of the photos, but most of the time, the wind took care of that!

I wanted to include the fur bag in the shoot because I got it at a friend's rummage sale from their friend's uncle who passed away. This person was a regular at our drag shows, always dressed up and looking fabulous. They had some beef with one of our other performers, and they could be a little salty, but I always felt like we had a pretty good rapport! It was always lovely to see them in the crowd, and they are part of my drag journey in a small way, so I wanted to include them in this shoot. RIP David.
