I had the chance to work with the incredibly dynamic Shawnna, also known as Gypsy Xotic, for a creative shoot in Norfolk’s vibrant Neon District. The energy she brought to the shoot was unmatched, blending perfectly with the colorful murals and gritty textures of the area. Every frame felt like a collaboration, full of movement, personality, and raw style.


Shawnna is more than just a model—she’s a multi-talented performer, entrepreneur, and creator. You can see her passion come through in everything she does, whether it’s her eye-catching performances or her beautifully curated work through Gypsy Xotic. She knows how to own a space and tell a story, and that made photographing her an absolute pleasure.
