My name is Summer Rose and I have been doing photography for three years now. I like to capture different aspects of femininity and emotion with my work. I consider these to be my best pieces.
Summer is also one of the creators of her podcast “Camp of Cult” – a lovely group of eccentric artists from Southeast Texas sharing their love of movies. Available on all podcast platforms. Anyone is interested in guest hosting the podcast, please email campofcultpodcast@gmail.com
The next two photos come from one of my favorite shoots and collaborations since moving back to Texas. We had one day to get everything put together. The lead photographer came up with the concept of an 80s arcade shoot and we worked with the model to find an outfit from Goodwill using BnB Arcade as our location.
The first image was shot using the reflection of my model looking into a claw machine. The emotion I wanted to capture in this shot was this idea of seeking comfort from the past but realizing that comfort is no longer there.
The second image from the shoot was more light-hearted. I simply wanted to play with the lighting from the arcade machines and what I got was something from a horror movie poster. I absolutely love it and I would hope it will end up being a cover photo one day.

These two were from a birthday photoshoot I got to do last year. My model has a natural regalness to her and my goal was to capture the beauty in how she carries herself which helped create my best portraits. The photos really speak for themselves.
