About Me

Website: jsavagephotos.com . I'm a photographer. I do freelance, and I am a part of a book publishing company that I helped start up: threespiritspress.com . I like nature, music, reading, baby-back ribs, good beer and discovering new places. I am not native to the Northwest, but it seems this area chose me, because of all the signs I got when I was planning my move out here. I am a big believer in the concept of "no coincidences", and live my life accordingly. I have an offbeat sense of humor, and will often make bad puns if I see the opportunity. I can't resist. I consider myself very self-assured, but I get the same doubts as anyone. I love being around wild animals, to photograph or just admire. I am always working on getting better in tune with them, so I can get great pictures, and be closer to them. I am very spiritual, and am freeing myself of dogmas and doubts. I have lived in various places, including Indiana, Chicago, Nashville and Tulsa. I am sensitive, but not a wuss (no matter what Kevin in 4th grade said). I enjoy most types of music, and am greatly influenced by it. I love the sound of breaking glass, and the smell of old books. I'm a pretty mellow, not quite down to Earth guy.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I am open to whoever happens to come into my life, because I know it is all for a reason. I try to treat others as I would like to be treated myself. It is difficult at times, but I feel it is essential to be aware of what I am putting out at all times. I like being around others who feel the same. For romance, I like women who love and respect themselves, and know what they want. I guess I would have to say I look for the same thing in any friendship. How can you care about another, unless you first care about yourself? The people I would like to meet are anybody who I do meet (I just have to remind myself of that from time to time). Without getting too "new-agey" I do believe we are all connected, and we are extensions of each other.

When something doesn't happen (no matter how tight you close your eyes)

This has been a very interesting week for me. I have been to a place within myself that I partially forgotten about, and the rest, I didn't know was there. The backstory: I had created an op...
