Designer Needs Friends

Artists are a special breed of humans. Back when I started my journey to become a photographer, it was a little lonely. I'd meet seasoned photographers, but they had no interest in taking a total newbie like me under their wing. They were only friends with other highly successful photographers. It was sad for me....

Life Does Not Suck

It’s a busy time of year for us and we've been here before. School gets started, Aria's schedule fills up, Vince starts a new bowling season, putting together Aria's birthday party, all the Fall activities, and in between there I do my best to keep it all going with perfect pitch-black eyeliner. Miss Aria is... Continue Reading →

Freakin’ Conformist

On this day 5 years ago, I was fired. It wasn’t pretty and it sucked ass. I wasn't happy there, but I also wasn't giving up. It caught me off guard in the dirtiest way. I did all the things I was "supposed" to do - talked like them, dressed like them, agreed with them,... Continue Reading →
