My Interests

WWW.CAJPHOTO.COM Professional Digital Photography, Music and Dancing. And I also have a day job. Balancing 3 passions is not easy and I usually get 5 hours sleep a night (except on weekends). Ive been a photographer for...well a long time. A musician longer still, but sadly I dont practice like I should. Probably because I dance too much.

I'd like to meet:

Music:

Yes, I love Salsa music. No, I dont speak Spanish. Next question. OK, I can speak a tiny bit of Spanish. And I know the words to Tu Boca. I'll whisper them in your ear sometime during a bachata.

Movies:



Television:

I dont watch much TV, but I love Seinfeld and the Simpsons. My brain is full of trivial one-liners from movies, tv shows, comedians. "I have come to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of bubble gum."

Books:
