Plan B.

Plan B.

~ 4.06.2009

Originally I had planned to post some polaroids of me taken with a Cheki camera by photographer Chandler Easley for my first post. The photographs were in the style of Japanese cult photographer Yasumasa Yonehara (Yone). Yone shoots his models in provocative yet playful poses that marry eroticism and cuteness. The only light source comes from the flash of the camera making the pictures very raw and authentic, rebellious even to the conventions of photography.  It's sexy in such a casual and fresh way and those photographs had to be my favorite pictures of myself to date. I felt that those pictures captured me in the purest form, so they were a logical spring board for this blog. Unfortunately, my mother destroyed those pictures. So my favorite photographs, the ones I felt captured the very essence of who I think I am are lost forever at the hands of my mother. So I guess this blog starts with a different tone, a more somber one. I don't feel I know exactly who I am or who I want to be, but one thing I know for sure is that my mother has no idea who I am and doesn't care to ever find out. With that said, I am moving out.
