About Me

"look, i'm telling you right off the bat i'm high maintenance. so i'm not gonna tip-toe around your marriage or whatever it is ya got goin' on there. if you wanna be with me, you're with me."

i am here for fun, i am not looking to get laid. making-out might be okay.


photgrapher and videographer. i get paid to do what i love. right now i shoot mostly stock photography so if you are looking to make some easy quick cash, let me know. i would be happy to take advantage of you and make money off of you.


i hardly ever use capital letter. not because i am stupid or cause i am trying to be oh sooo trendy. i do it cause it is easy and i like things easy.

My Interests

i can tell you what i am not interested in.....cartoon aliens anal raping each other! if you are into that, don't talk to me. you make my teeth hurt.

photography is my passion. i love writing and reading and watching movies. i love movie quotes, and incorporate them into conversation as often as they fit. sure this is probably annoying but i am not here to pretend i am something i am not.

I'd like to meet:

I WANT TO MEET EVERYONE ON MY SPACE EXCEPT THE GUY IN THE BONDAGE OUTFIT. You look like you make out with six year olds in the back of the Walgreens parking lot. Change your pic! ALSO THE DUDE DRINKING BUD IN HIS JACUZZI. Jacuzzis are nothing more than human soup. Do your privates a favor and stay out of them. Oh! AND THE YOUNG MAN WHO HAS PHOTOSHOPPED FIREBALLS COMING OUT OF HIS EYES. You are not a wizard. We all loved Dungeons and Dragons... sometimes you have to turn your back on love.

Music:

music is the window to my soul, it is what moves me. it it the perfect counselor with the right answers at the right time. the strokes, the white stripes, sondre lerche, the streets, beck, ryan adams, joanna newsom, rufus wainwright, coldplay, cloud cult, bright eyes,kings of leon, maximo park, cat power, rilo kiley, colin meloy, okkervil river, tegan and sarah, sufjan stevens, wolf parade, the album leaf, kaiser chiefs, imogen heap, ash, bloc party, talib kewli, u2, coldplay, REM, foward russia

Movies:

good god this list could be long. i watch a lot of movies. most of them are okay, rarely are their great ones, but i am willing to watch 10 bad movies to see one fabulous movie. get to know me, to know what my fav movis are.

i wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, i was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. the music he's created over the years, i don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, i respect that. i care desperately about what i do. do i know what product i'm selling? no. do i know what i'm doing today? no. but i'm here, and i'm gonna give it my best shot.

Television:

television is dead, but i do enjoy Discovery HD Theatre

Books:

"You'll see when you move out it just sort of happens one day one day and it's just gone. And you can never get it back. It's like you get homesick for a place that doesn't exist. I mean it's like this rite of passage, you know. You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for you kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I miss the idea of it. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place."


curious incident of the dog in the night-time, a million litte pieces, fast food nation, fight club, less than zer0, nine stories, 25th hour, welcome to the monkey house, high fidelity, american psycho, rules of attraction, lullaby, about a boy, invisible monsters, man-eaters of kumaon, the losers club, candy, a long way down,
