thee most exalted potentate of love

I originally wrote this in third person. Lame. I'm a Huntington, West Virginia photographer. I shoot everything. You'll find scandalous stuff, candids, and other random scenery here. On occasion, I'll get something worth looking at.

she's got a tv eye on me. . .

i won't even tell you what's going on with me right now as far as health shite goes. i have no idea what to even say about it, hahahaha. . . . good time for it to strike, though. . . when i'm fucking without insurance. nothing like being unemployed.



other than that. . . there are two things i should mention: i'm going to be in new york from late July 31st til sometime in the morning of August 3. i'll have an amazing rock and roll hairdresser with me. . . so. . . fuck. . . if you're down you should maybe come by for a shoot. i can't promise much this far in advance, but if you're going to be in NYC, just let me know and we can work something out. i try not to suck too bad, but if you want to look at my work check out the flickr, i guess.




also, i'm going to be in washington DC from late July 3 til the early afternoon of July 6. . . . same idea (but minus the rock and roll hairdresser). i know this is short notice, but we can maybe work something out.




anyway, and ruth ann can weigh in on this a little more fully, if you want to know what it's like living with me. . . it's sort of like musical theatre with intermissions where i act like an asshole. you can read the musical score here: http://twitter.com/cootersings maybe tseeing the songs i sing all day and the photos i take will make you happy. . . .

that's my piranha. we listen to metal together and cut off the sleeves to jean jackets. . . we're bros from way back.


enid blank came over for a shoot and we were messing around with her corset and some bondage bracelets i have.


enidblank came by for photos and it was bad ass times. we shot a set in the piss tunnel so it should be great if i didn't butcher it.


i was toying with making these black and white. . . .


that's my bad ass hanging lamp in my bedroom. envy my fantastic taste in decor.


she came by with some great accessories and looked lovely. . . .

i'm a creepster. . . .

i'm sitting at our local pirate themed donut shop and it's 4 in the morning.



i'm sitting close enough to the bathroom i can hear the hobos/locals/regulars farting in the tiled bathrooms like some sort of freeform jazz.



it's been a minute since my last post. i'm currently not working. it's a long story. . . no real villains, i suppose. make up a good story about why i'm no longer with the company i was at for nearly five years. best story gets a prize.



the donut making fellow was listening to offspring in the back room. it makes me think of the girl i used to want to kiss so badly when i was a younger man and how we had bonded over listening to that on our way to king's island on the band trip. now it's finally playing something more palatable -- black sabbath. something from master of reality, but i can't quite recall the title. listening to black sabbath doesn't necessarily make me think of kissing anyone. it makes me feel like wearing cut off jeans and driving a camaro. . . and maybe being a parolee that has a pregnant 17 year old girlfriend.



anyway. . . .



i was able to buy a little bit of my gear back. i sent out thank you messages to my people, but if i sommehow missed you i want to let you know i'm sort of blown away by the kindness (there were a lot of DN photographers who helped as well as some of my local friends and fellow artists from around the net). i'm honestly sort of an asshole so i could have never anticipated this sort of help. Gwin helped put the chip in fund together and, even though i'm still down one of my lenses and a few other pieces, it's good to be almost back to zero. . . . i may end up going to new york in a week or so. . . . it'll be good to document the adventure.



here are some photos. . . .
