Oh, girl, you give me such wood.











Oh, yeah and this.

Oh, girl, you give me such wood.

This ad is so "me"

I am back in Seattle. Working like a busy bee. Scanning model releases. Going through photos from this suspension party I was at. Stoked to get an email from a certain publisher saying she wants me to send in all the suspension photos I have. I could use that cash considering my only shoot this weekend (5hours from home) flaked on me the morning of our gig. Sad Face. I really like taking photos and she inspired me. The money is sort of necessary. Here's to hoping she pays the cancellation fee.



It's weird. Since the US economy started to take a shit, I have had more bookings than ever....it's just that I have also had an irregularly high instance of flaking/canceling last minute/reschedules that never reschedule...the excuses are usually that someone else got layed off in their office so they want to hold onto their dollars. Uh, you dont get to fire me because you are paranoid. My policy is a respectful one, you reserve my time, you pay for that time. I always prefer to have a rad photo shoot over a cancellation fee. Maybe that's just me.



The Talking Heads are playing in my ears.

My dear friends are calling more.

I am wealthy with love, baby.

I have gone through something like 2000 images since I got home...oh shit what day was that? Wednesday? Thursday? I have sort of lost sense of time. It's fun; you should try it.

Seems like I should have gotten through them faster, but they are so good, I just had to spend the time.

The downfall to this is that I am also, simultaneously booking the entire United States for the near future (well, except all those east coast states) and the combination of the two seem to give my most broken arm "dead arm" by the end of each day.

I have pain killers, but I dont like to take them. I like to clear my head at night.



Since Reed and I announced we weren't dating anymore to the general public, (sounds weird to say that out loud), I will have to admit to being slightly bombarded by dudes wanting to get in my pants.

I love it when hot dudes want to get in my pants! I just don't care for it when they are total dogs and hit on anything that moves.

I have heard the best pick-up lines ever lately.



"I respect you."



"Let's go out"

ME: "I have high standards. They start at 8 inches."

"Hey, I have size 13 shoes."



"Can I fly to Seattle to take you out to dinner?"



"I will admit I lay awake at night and wonder what it would be like to hold you."



Oh boy. Here we go.



Seeking: Honest men and women who are good at making out.

Not Seeking: Most of the general population. Honesty is a bitch, ain't it?





^^Self, from the phone files^^

yes yes yes



every thing has changed



every single little thing feels new and different



I can see the dust trails behind me



clouds forming in my wake



I can taste your scent in the wind



like a hunter



this passion has never been so strong



although I am in the same old house



with the same old people



our relationships are different



I can feel the cold coming in



but the sunburns



have to happen first.

Mayhem inspired me to post a photo of my butt.

I am in a little town near Boise with my mom, 5 dogs, one horse and we barely got the internet working.



I camped all alone, I mean not another human for miles, on top of a mountain in Utah the other night. That hammock and whiskey was amazing.



THANK YOU, UNIVERSE! Your wonders astound me.



In the last week I have seen: baby robins, goats, mountain goats, moose (dead), lizards, bull snakes, all sorts of amazing birds, turkey, raccoon, opossum, deer, elk, skunk, cows, buffalo, and more....



love you, deviants!



My next trips in June will be to Seattle, Spokane, Moses Lake, Portland....I am available for hire (and fun times, of course).

Curtis (otherwise known as CJW) and I got together in Seattle a week or so ago.

We got weird.

Here is one result.

I love you guys.

Kansas is weird.

Here's a picture by Zak.









I am on the family farm, staring at trees and baby robins.

I am awaiting my aunts, uncles, siblings, neices, nephews, and cousins.

It has been almost 10 years.

My, how your little Fedora has grown.



*scared*



You know how judgmental people can be...especially my close-minded family.

I got a new banner. Photo by CJW. He thought I looked like Jennifer Connelly, so I showed up with black hair. Whoo hoooo!!!!



Also, I am heading to KS, CO, WY, and ID tomorrow (May28-June12)

Everybody say, "Thank You, Ethan."

So, I cannot post my pro images of the show until they go to print a few months from now.

I can assure you I got all the DN girls (except Andi escaped me) in my photo booth. I got some of the DN merch booth, too. And the performers. Here is what I can show you.



The Producers. Give them mad love.





Les and Kathy





Dawn Marie





Splat & Louie







Ash and Jimmy





Alex





Missy Star and RPG





Ruby and BaunFire





I stole these from Missy's FaceBook:

Oh, and Mayhem's got a set up that I photographed in my back yard...I love playing with hair styles and dressing pretty girls up in leather. yum.

I made it home alive. I had to fight the boys off with both fists. This was my first tattoo expo as a single lady....and holy shit....I had a blast.

I have had 10 hours of sleep since Friday.



Highlights:



-Seeing all the DN ladies and deviant company.



-photographing all my friends and their clients



-booking some work and selling some merch (lord knows I can use the cashola)



-watching the entertainment, including Kittie Katrina and a few friends, the Illustrated Magician (works at a club Rocket works at) broke a world record right in front of my lens. He totally hit on me, too.



-the after party in the parking garage where the producer of the show suspended himself at about 4am. He had a wee man with a waxy mustache (Brian from Spider Monkey) swinging on him for the most epic photograph ever...actually 1st place photo goes to my (vagina) mustache standing next to his mustache...like a family portrait.



the only shitty thing about it all is having to leave. I got all teary as I was riding my skateboard to the car for the last time....

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it.

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it.



I get to photograph a tattoo show this weekend for some swanky tattoo magazines.

All these DeviantNation people are coming to the show.

I get to attend a special VIP party tomorrow night.

Baunfire is coming over to my house tonight.

I totally have not finished screening the tote bags and black underwear, but I have plenty of merch anyway.

I cannot wait to see if people love it or hate it.

I really need the cashola and the magazines won't print for 3-6 months.

So, if you are asking me for pictures from the show before then, ask someone else.

You will see them when they go to print.

I don't make the rules.

Plus, I will have a slide show on all weekend at the tattoo expo...you can gander at them there.

I will be posting video, however, so that I can get some footage out there to our DN peeps who cannot make it.

I have more to do right now than I can even list, but I love this feeling!



Here's my video blog for this week.
