She seriously has sooo many amazingly beautiful photos, I would highly recomend strolling through the pages of her flickr gallery. Like I said, it's mix of editorial work, candid home photos, stylistically shot landscapes/skyscapes and every day things. But trust me, flip through the whole thing and you'll see some really great stuff between the miscellany.

This set immediately made me think of Frida Kahlo. What I find most "cool" about them is that they weren't necessarily MEANT to be inspired by Frida. They're not replicas of her work, or portrayals of her. What they do share though is an amazing display of costume and detail. I love the sphynx cat used in these images. Frida often portrayed her unusual pets in her portraits, such as monkeys or itzcuintli dogs.
