it's pronounced "deer-dreh", for those who've never heard the name before. and it's spelled "Die" "R" "Dre".






Now THAT is one sultry dame. Go give Boomie some love.




Woweee wow wow. Long time no see, folks. I've not died yet, but i can't say the same for a lot of people very close to me this year... Ugh.

Well, i'm not here to be a downer. It's quite the opposite!






So, i'm sure you remember that Vinyasa set i did back in 2010 or something. If you don't, go into my sets and take a peek: the wonderful Lorelei shot it. What a swell lady.
Well, that set was taken during the SG Mountain Cabin Getaway. We're doing another thing like that, this time in a beach house in Florida, where we go out to the middle of nowhere, get naked, and take pictures for SG.

Well, i would LOVE to take part in this, but to do so, i need a little money to throw at the autocrat. So I have reopened my Etsy shop in hopes that some people who would like me to shoot another set can buy some awesome stuff to fund my endeavors.

Here's my etsy shop! Currently, i have a Princess Leia Tote and an 8x12 print of me posing all cute like under a dock. As i can manage to afford to have more things made, i shall pop it up for sale. :3

Lastly, i simply can't bear to take this off my journal, so it shall park here for a little while longer.


Shot with a D5000 (that I bummed off a photographer buddy of mine), edited in Adobe Premiere.

Trivia bits about the video:
- When i'm putzing around on the intarwebs, i was talking with Scotty and with people on Steam.
- That is one of the official Gentech Prototype wallpapers on my desktop there. (i have a cycle of L4D and Prototype wallpapers. I'm a gamer dork.)
- That big wooden asian closet in the background of some of the shots is a Butsadon. Think of it as an in-house buddhist temple.
-The book behind me when i'm beginning to take off my shirt is actually a "Storyteller's Guide To The Sabbat".
-The cat is a Himalayan named Pabu Ikshu (tibetan for sugary puffball)

I hope you guys like it! I hope to shoot another of these this year. :3

I've always been a big Gogo fan, and after shooting something of a water set a couple days ago, it got me thinking of my favorite water sets evar, and i think this was it. <3




I'm very much so looking forward to a Shoot O Rama / SG getaway out in the Tennesee mountains in a couple weeks. The lineup is as such:

1.Wit
2.Lorelei
3.Maslow
4.Gadget
5.Tovi
6.Doxie
7.Milloux
8.Brittan
9.Alicee
10.LillithVain
11.Suri
12.Absolution
13.Dierdre ((WOO))

I'm really REALLY looking forward to shooting with Lorelei. I'm a huge fan of her manipulation of color and light, and just how intimate her work is.




So here are the pics in question:

Under The Docks

Warm Dusk:



The Looking Glass:

So after staring at myself for 2 days straight, i came across a couple shots that reminded me of other suicidegirls. Totally by accident, but i'd like to think of them as homages. <3

Fatality


Amina


Ginary



What do you guys think? :3



EDIT: Hey. I actually put some effort into a video. The second video i've ever edited. Hopefully it doesn't suck too hard.

It's awesome to see another set from Dice. Tasty, tasty Dice.



For the past 7 months, i've taped a couple of different videos for you guys to update you on the shit that has been my life in the past year, but they were all so freaking depressing that i couldn't bear to actually post them. I'll try to do up a video that's much more fun.

EDIT:
Yeah, so here's that video.




Upside: I made it to the end of my lease.
Downside: I had to leave when the lease was up.

Upside: I could move back in with my folks.
Downside: Only sort of. Got a 6x6 space to include Wardrobe, bed and desk. needless to say, i don't use it as much as i'd like to.

Upside: I got a boyfriend...
Downside: ...that didn't understand the word Rebound. So i'm painfully single again.

Upside: I have time to rework my portfolio, and i'm doing so...
Downside: ...because i have to. Unemployed still, and lost my portfolio. ::sigh::

I got a wake up call concerning my hair length in the shower yesterday. I rinsed the conditioner out, and realized that while wet, my hair now reaches past my fingertips down my thighs. I was unaware my hair could get so long. At first, i started growing it for a wedding, and then when the wedding fell through 3 years ago, i just never got it cut. Since i do the bellydance thing, i figured long hair would be helpful. Perhaps i'm due for a change.

So to appease you guys and let you know i'm not entirely dead, i did some picatoors for the Mage the Ascension game i've been for the last couple years. I've been writing a book to sum up the background story for the character, along with some little side projects featuring the characters.


My hermetic Lorenzo Giovanni when he was 19. And yes, it's the Giovanni family you think.


My VDept Panda.

I would upload more, but SG is being kinda twitty with my uploads for some reason.

So yeah, i haven't seen you guys in forever. How are you doin?

Even though i don't hang out here much anymore, i do keep up with Lady V.
So. Um. Hot.

Also, grats to Soya and Fractal for that set going up. GREAT work, ladies. We'll revive this dead husk of a site yet.



Hey there, folks. I know it's been a while.
Times are harder than ever. THis is the first month that i can't make rent, and while it looks like my couch surfer will surf us this month, i don't know what's going to happen next month.

In an attempt to keep spirits high and my hands busy, i've started a weekly podcast with the lady that convinced me to become a suicide girl. So check out The Duchy of Dork Radio: where 2 hot chicks geek out over music, comics, gaming, and internet miscellanea. The plan is to update it every friday.


btw, i took that photo, and the model is my cohost, Nina.

If you are a musician and would like to be aired, we would LOVE to support you guys by airing you. Just drop me a line so we can work out the details.

In other news, i have begun my own bellydancing troupe, which is quite exciting. The only time i've been on this site in the past few months was to go into the Bellydancing Group and talk shop. A big thanks to the girls there: You've been a huge help.

Lum makes me stutter.



Wow. July, huh? being that it's just about December, i guess i'll post a little something.

my life has become strikes and gutters, lemme tell you.


I'm not sure why my account is suddenly UK and not america.

My site, btw, is saikosako.com.

so yeah. Tonight, we're hitting up Bridges Billiards in Fairfax on Main street.

Hopefully some people will come out.

Since i never posted the pics from ECCT, i guess i'll post some now for you guys to look at.
