Even while taking commercial photographs of women for publications such as "Mujeres", a popular Mexican magazine she began working for in 1958, Kati Horna used what could have been restrictive limits to push herself in new directions. Horna frequently utilized props and close-ups, for example, to create an air of mystery, exaggeration, and odd juxtapositions. Beatriz Sheridan was a frequent sitter for Kati Horna, and was also the subject of her unpublished "S.nob" photo series "Historia de un Vampiro: Sucedió en Coyoacán en 1962".
