I received a comment today that really set me off. It said, "You should work with other photographers sometimes, you haven't had great images in ages." Well, let me explain this. There are many reasons that I only work with Scott now. First, it is due to the fact of how many times I have been screwed over by other photographers. Whether I never got photos, never had an input on creative control, or what not. I just shoot for fun now. Moving on to the main reason I shoot with Scott, he is the love of my life. I have never been so in love or yearn to create art with someone more than him. He will hike long distances with me to get to the location, he makes me feel more comfortable and beautiful than anyone else, I could go on and on. I understand that there will be some people that wish that I worked with other photographers, but this is my life now. I create art that I love, even if no one else loves it. You can follow me on this journey or not. (I hope that you do). However, there is no need to be rude.

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you. Thank you for all of your continued support and your wonderful comments. It means so much, all 6,500 of you! I hope that I can continue to bring images to you that you enjoy and are possibly inspired by to create art. Deviantart is such a great community and I am so happy I was introduced to it.

Well, now as you know, I have my own camera. Scott and I have been doing photoshoots and realized that the camera also does video. Yesterday afternoon we set out to play around with it. Jumped in the car with no destination in mind, no storyboard. Just a desire to learn.

So, I give to you our first creation. I fear you are going to be bombarded by video now haha. I love it. Now, to actually come up with ideas and concepts to shoot!!

Man, I have the best fans in the world. I love you. You keep me going and push me to be better. I can not tell you how much I appreciate your continued support. I hope that I continue to bring art to you that inspires you or entices you to keep looking. As I always say, thank you never seems like enough, but thank you.

p.s.-thank you for all of the past birthday wishes...it made the day extra special

Finally!! The next issue of Nouveau is officially out!! I have been working so hard on this issue. It is the longest issue to date. There is a little suprise in this one too, I am actually in it! A model didn't show for one of our shoots, so I got to step in. I am got to be a red head in the editorial. See if you can spot me!

So I am working on a new project, it is an e-book! A collection of completely unreleased photos (not on FB, instagram, nada). Since I am still in the process of making it, I want to know what you want to see in it. Help me create it.

How many pages do you think it should be?
What do you think is a fair price? (free doesn't count)
What type of photos would you like to see in it? (fashion/glamour/beauty...so on and so forth)

I want to make the best possible product for you, so let's make it together.

There were so many great entries for my second "lil art competition." Thank you so much to everyone that entered!!

Just a simple thank you from me today. Thank you for being so supportive of my art and my career. You encourage me to be better. You encourage me to try harder. I have accomplished dreams I never imagined I would see to fruition.

So thank you, for you support. It helps me every day in a world (and particularly my job) of rejection.
