About Me


Get Your Own Free Hypster.com Playlist. =======================================
I'm a starving artist. Help get TokenBlackGirls.com off the ground, and donate a couple bucks. Anything helps!
========================================
I'm a photographer. Black pinups are my game.I'm currently working on a website that features black pin-ups, so if you're a black [fetish, alternative, pinup] model [or would like to be] then feel free to add me and/or shoot me a message.


Most days you'll find me at home editing photos on my sofa.. drinking scotch and watching horror movies. That's how I roll.
I'm all about FOODIE CALLS. That's where we call each other late at night, and talk about all the good food we ate that day, or will eat in the near future.
I love food related gatherings, but I can't cook.
I adore men, but I'm terrible with relationships
I dress up, but I don't flaunt it
I have a classic muscle car, but know little about cars
Intimacy scares me
I'm the girl in the corner
I ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money, Ain't got no class
Ain't got no skirt, Ain't got no sweater
Ain't got no perfume Ain't got no bed
Ain't got no mine,
Ain't got no mother Ain't got no father
Ain't got no friends, aint got no schoolin'
Ain't got no love, Ain't got no name
Ain't got no ticket, Ain't got no culture
Ain't got no god
and what have i got
why am i alive anyway
yeah what have i got
nobody can take away...
Got my hair on my head
Got my brains, Got my ears
Got my eyes, Got my nose
Got my mouth, I got my smile
I got my tongue, Got my chin
Got my neck, Got my boobies
Got my heart, Got my soul
Got my back, I got my sex
I got my arms, my hands, my fingers,
my legs, my feet, my toes,
and my liver, got my blood..
I got life,
i got my freedom
i got life
I got my life, and i'm gonna keep it
i got my life, and im gonna keep it
-Nina Simone
I swoon over boys with tattoos and massive facial hair. I also swoon over tofu scramble, watermelon and things that go bump in the night. You want a detailed list because you're a stalker? Well then, see my "interests" on the left side of this page partna.
I may listen to loud music, have tattoos, and drink like a sailor-- but I care about people, animals, and the world I live in. You should to, otherwise it's a waste to know me.
Oh yeah, I eat out a lot [because I can't cook] then I review those places here: http://lethereatcake.yelp.com
BELOW:
SAMPLES OF MY PHOTOGRAPHY!
IF YOU STEAL IT, I KILL YOU, it's simple.

Meeting people takes a lot out of me. Being social is over rated. Over rated much like Betty Paige, or Halle Berry.

With that said:
I always look forward to connecting with artist, photographers, black models, make up artists, or creative people in general.I'd also like to meet someone that will force me to leave my apartment every once and a while. I need inspiration, I need excitement, I need... to get off my ass.

Oh, and this guy to!
