About Me

i think i might be insane. i'm into a lot of different stuff... i guess it depends on the day... if it's my day off you might find me at the beach... you might find me on the highway... you might find me in my pj's on the living room floor, painting or crocheting... you'll usually find me with my camera... you may not find me at all...maybe you found me and u weren't looking for me... if you did you might want to spend some time with me... you might not... but if u do you might be surprised.Y!=bluescreamsandredkisses

My Interests

piercings & tattoos photography & painting karaoke, movies & music road trips, beach bummin & concerts spending good time with good people...any day can be amazing.The InvitationIt doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love for your dream for the adventure of being alive.It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon... I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain.I want to know if you can sit with pain mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.I want to know if you can be with joy mine or your own if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful to be realistic to remember the limitations of being human.It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy.I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, "Yes."It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.--Oriah Mountain Dreamer

Books:

David Bailey's Rock n Roll Heros "It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary."American Music by Annie Leibovitz "There must be a reason why photographers are not very good at verbal communication. I think we get lazy." "When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph."Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse "one cannot have pleasure without giving it...She taught him that lovers should not separate from each other after making love without admiring each other, without being conquered as well as conquering, so that no feeling of satiation or desolation arises nor the horrid feeling of misusing or having been misused."The Lorax by Dr. Seuss "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe "But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour. Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered Till I scarcely more than muttered, "other friends have flown before On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before." Then the bird said, 'Nevermore.'"

Heroes:

Dispatch for being the greatest band to ever make music... for staying humble and gracious... for their generosity and astounding talent.Ron Paul for never letting there be room for negativity... for always moving forward and standing his ground... and for being honest and amazing and actually TRYING to make a difference.David LaChapelle for his truly amazing way of seeing EVERYTHING... for his color, creativity and and utterly incredible skill.Mom... for being the most loving, caring, genuine person in the world... for showing me how to see beauty in the flaws... for showing me positivity and determination... and for loving me even when anyone else would find me impossible to love.
