"Don't come to me looking for a gig until I see your reputation skyrocketing. There are too many mercs without the balls for the tough jobs. Make yourself stand out. Make this city your bitch."

This photo is one of my favorite recent photos. My friend Kylie and I found a room in this dark and grimy nightclub in downtown Austin Texas. Bright blue neon lights on the wall illuminated the room, and a pink blossom tree stood in the center. I wanted to make Kylie's character retain this balance between attractive and deadly. I wanted to give her character a sense of power and authority, and I think she nailed it. To me, she looks like a fixer from Cyberpunk 2077.
