In March of 2019, Ariana Lindenfelser reached out to me while she was working at the Snowden Gray Mansion, in downtown Columbus, and wanted to create a body of work inspired by the Pink Lady ghost that haunted the space.

She was an artist and painted portraits and nudes in the early 1900’s. Over the next 6 months, Ariana and I spent many long days planning, shooting, and editing. We worked with 7 models, shot in a secret garden and at the mansion, and together created over a thousand images.

These photos are very special to me as I had never created this large of a body of cohesive work for one specific project before. It was such an amazing learning experience to work this way. I couldn’t have done any of it without Ariana’s support, vision, encouragement, and care. Creating all of this took up the better part of last year, and I cherish the time we all spent working together. It was truly magic.

Originally, all of this work was going to be displayed inside of the mansion, in the Pink Lady Parlour, but it has since closed. The work will not see its original final form, but I am so thrilled to share some of them here with you now. It feels surreal to post some of these after so long.

The beautiful vintage wardrobe came from Chelsea of Continuall and Allison executed the perfect 1920’s wave in Alexia’s hair. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Ariana, the models, the mansion, Nancy’s garden, the swan, and everyone who played a part. What a gift to create art with all of you.
