Adventures to the dark side of my personality

So this weekend was another weekend of shooting fun at the CAC. I shot with many photographers, many of them new, and had a blast with all of them. I am already recieving a few of my photo sets. From what I have seen it was a productive weekend indeed.

These photos are by Clint from Springheel, I am calling them " The bad peice that reaides in everyone". Basically it was supposed to show the difference in one persons personality the good ( played by Kristin) and the evil (played by yours truly). The first photo shows what the good enjoys doing, and the bad being annoyed and bored. The second shows the bad sneaking up behind the good and scaring her. The third is showing the bad doing what she does best. The final picture shows the good side finally fighting back against the bad side.

I really enjoyed this set. It was a lot of fun. I can't wait to hear what you all have to say about them.

Exotcia

This weekend was a blast. The Exotica convention was in Detroit over this past weekend. People from all walks of life getting together to celebrate their love, weather it be new or old, of fetish's and alternative lifestyles. It was amazing. I went to a BSDM 101 class with a black dom... she was awesome. Learned alot from her, and got a few great laughs by her stories. Watch many performances, a flesh pull, and went to a masquerade ball. I had an outfit that was to die for.

The cincher was made by my amazing Andi. I love her... she is so freaking awesome, and I have been telling her that. I will try and get pictures up from the ball itself up soon. I had an absolute blast.

Went up there with Rob and Troy, and once I got up there met up with JJ plush, Eric Cain, Fuzzytek, Big Lew, Ralf, Sam, Chris, and the whole Chaos crew.

I highly reccommend that anyone who didn't go this time definetly check it ut next time around.

Beauty

So growing up I learned that beauty is more than just skin deep, but I also learned that you must like what you look like in order to feel truly beautiful. Beauty is a funny thing, each person views beauty just a little bit, or in some cases alot different than the next person. To me my beauty was seen on the outside, but no one really got to know the person inside and just clumped me in with all the other pretty faces in the crowd. Much like the song lyrics Marilyn Manson wrote, " How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?"

I do like that people think I am beautiful, although sometimes I think I am not. Then this weekend my whole view of myself changed. I took a look at myself in my photos from the past few years and saw how much I have grown and evolved, how much i had accomplished, the kinds of obstacles that I had overcome, and the people who have come and gone, and I really started to see my inner beauty.

The picture above is one such picture that I took a look at. This photo was done by the awesomely spectacular Andi. I love this picture. I feel so beautiful, as well as sexy in it. (Which is something I don't feel that often about myself) I really fell attractive in it.

Although I am a strong individual I do still have crap for self esteem. It is getting better though. I am becoming more comfortable in my own skin. It is pictures like these that I look at and wonder to myself who is that girl in those pictures, and then I remember it is me.

Thank you to everyone who has had some effect on who I have become. You all have made more of a difference in my life than you may realize.

so...

Recently I have been shooting alot. No time really to add anything right now, but i would like to take a second and say i finally bought one of the book i am published in and I think that it is crap. Not the content, but the print quality is atrocious. I am usually not overly critical but this was just bad.

I am hoping that the next time I am put in a book i might actually be given one also rather than spending the money i am helping a photographer make. I know that everyone must make money, and I am cool with that but i feel a bit cheated in this instance because the quality was just not what it should have been.

Oh well I will post pictures as soon as I get 3 more seconds to myself.

The Plauge

So yesterday I woke up, and I felt a whole lot like dieing. My lungs hurt, I can't breathe cause my nose is so stuffy, and I have a cough that just won't quit. It is really annoying. I promised myself I would start blogging at least once a week here, and I shall. It looks like this week there will be no new photos. But at least everyone knows why. If anyone in my area wants to bring me cheddar baked potatoe soup from bob evans just feel free to drop on by. lol

yay

So I know that I haven't posted in like a gazillion years but things have been crazy. To start out with I forgot my username and password so I couldn't post if I wanted to. So obviously today I finally figured it out. Yay me. I have shot with many people since last post.



We had a fetish ball here about a week ago. It was a good time. I felt at home there. But then again I think most people who were there feel the same.

I leave you now with a few of my favorite pictures from the last two months. The first is of RezTeZ and I by Flutterby studios. That shoot was a lot of fun. The next is by Nihilus also at Flutterby studios.




















Finally but definetly not least fav. By my wonderfull andi a picture of the spectacular kitty corset also modeling with me is the lovely Thorny Rose . Love you Andi :)
