louis learns about social media in his best girl summer era and gets an instagram for posting his photography. his bio reads amateur photographer.

it starts slow and easy with some black and white portraits of humans, a few low contrast wildlife shots. he captions them variously with numbers and letters, not fretting over fuax deep captions, more concerned with archiving them orderly. Except when he indiscriminately deletes them when a rando says he sucks. he roams from subject to subject, thinking he's not really, truely capturing the art of emotion in his viewfinder, that parisian art dealer from years ago hounding his every shutter click. nevertheless, his follower count rises from zero.

and then, well, lestat hits the airwaves like an atom bomb. a fragile, messy mascara'd atomic bomb.

louis finds himself scrolling through candids of lestat on stages, hair flaring messily and rings glinting into the blur of a single snapshot. torn crop tops falling off sweaty shoulders, and pale eyes smattered with what is apparently glitter staring off into the distance. sometimes leaning breathlessly over a mic, sometimes baring his chest as he bows back, nimble fingers riffing on a guitar.

it's really only a matter of time until louis quietly purchases a ticket and goes to a concert, his fingers tip-tapping over his camera case.

his first shot of lestat comes thirty minutes into the concert because all he could do was stare in the midst of roaring humans, the air alight with manic energy that made his breathing stop.

He takes hundreds that night, and spends the next several nights going through and picking ones he thinks have some kind of merit.

two months and two more concerts, taking shots of lestat from the anonymity of his rabid fans is as natural as breathing.

three months later magazines have him on speedial, it feels like, and then he's contacted by the vampire lestat's agent asking if he can do a shoot.

it really was as simple as finding his muse.
