Well for starters I'm an aspiring music/alternative modeling photographer, I've mainly focused on music since I picked up the camera but was asked to shoot a friends set once and realized its worth a try so here I am :). I love music and photography because I'm really into "creative" things I've never really been into things that are too simple or over done to be honest. So the reason why I chose to focus on the metal-core,hard-core, indie, pop-punk, alternative, or many other genres of music is because its over shadowed by whats considered "pop" music which to me sure the talent is there, but it gets lost in the computers and the buttons so in the end its just a product and the art of music is forgotten. Yes I'm aware of this happening in all types of music. Any who I started alternative modeling photography because I fell in-love with the art behind it. I love how its not your everyday "model" and I love how it allows anyone to be themselves without any judgement(well mostly anyway) plus it plays into my music photography with its odd hair styles, its random piercings or its many artistic types of tattoos. Its not afraid to be different and that's just how I was growing up, I was an oddball or "blacksheep" if you will and I was treated different due to it. I grew up in a rough environment as many of us have but even though it took some time I said "fuck it" and just started being myself not really caring what others thought as long as I was happy. Even if that happiness was only temporary it didn't matter because I either had fun or achieved a goal of mine. So I'm 25 now but I look 15(it sucks) I live in Ohio pretty much in the definition of BFE where I'm an hour-three hours away from anything fun or anyone exciting which is very heavy on the wallet. Thanks to a SG hopeful who has done nothing but make me wanna push myself a lot harder and who's actually more supportive than most of the ones around me I finally joined this website to where I hope to make more understanding and supportive friends and hopefully further my photography career. So a personal shout out and big THANK YOU to "Guns" hopefully she one day turns pink and achieves her goal in her modeling career.
P.S Id like to give a personal apology to any English majors out there if I butchered the English language by using/misspelling anything wrong. :)
