I'm a serious amateur photographer, and I'm always looking for new and interesting faces to shoot. If you want portraits of you or your family, I'd be happy to do them at no charge other than travel expenses if you can't make it to my immediate area.
SOME RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME?
*I am Native American and of the Absarokee(aka "Crow"...pick your own spelling). If you are indigenous, please say hello... Mita kuye ayasin.
*I am chaos personified, my life is a blur of lost car keys, misplaced lists and post-it reminders to myself
*I reserve the right to change my mind whenever I damn well feel like it... and I do utilize that right on a regular basis :P
*I have style, I have taste, but I know zilch about current fashion trends. I don't really care to know, either. If a garment has no holes bigger than a dime, and no visible stains, I'm good to go.
*Black was good enough for Yul Brennar and Johnny Cash... it's good enough for me.
*I collect pistols, and shoot 'em too.
*I was raised on a series of residential building sites. I can build a house from the foundation up, should I ever need to....and build my own trusses in the bargain
*I am a Dr. Doolittle wannabe, and usually always have some kind of animal underfoot.
*I'm not "honey, do you wanna go somewhere this weekend?" impulsive... I'm "pull the car over ....NOW" impulsive.
*I have no real career ambition. If I don't dread going to work in the morning, and I can pay the bills and have some fun money left over, I don't need anything else. I'll leave fame and fortune to folks with something to prove to the world.
*I'm in love with life; feeling, experiencing, achieving, creating, learning. I don't understand people who waste their lives holding down the couch
*I adore my best friends drunken poetry :P If I'm even slightly perturbed at you, and you know I'm drinking wine?... DO NOT for God's sake, open any emails from me until you're sure I'm sober again. Merlot mail is NOT pretty. :P
*I heinously over-use both ellipses and emoticons... and I don't CARE if it annoys you :P
*I learned early, from my very wise family, that happiness isn't something you are rewarded with after meeting goals. Happiness is what's all around all of us all of the time. We either recognize it and embrace it, or we fail to acheive it.

I'd like to meet:

*want to introduce yourself with sexual self-aggrandizing.
*can't speak at least one language fluently
*need someone to define the big words in a Keanu Reeves movie.
