So long, and thanks for all the fish.

When it stops becoming art...its no longer fun.

I've stopped updating simply because I've retired. I no longer chase the camera, and no longer have the desire or will to deal with the nature of the industry anymore. Anymore, I view the prospects of a shoot to be a chore, and have lost my passion for the fun of the posing for that perfect shot.


Thank you....to my fans, to the amazing photographers, to the other models, and basically everyone who made this very fun.

I accomplished in my time...
18+ print publications (from small indy to major global)
3 Covers
5 Music cd cover art
2 collectable cards
3 comic books
2 limited edition status/figures
23 gallery showings (that I know of...could be more)
4 Flyer art features
2 signing sessions
....and countless bits of AMAZING Fan art!


Of everything I've kept over the time....my fan art has been the only thing I still have. In fact, some of my fan art has been printed out and framed in my home. I've thrown out my old portfolio and the thing that I treasure the most and keep with me now in memory of my time - is the fan art. I have greatly enjoyed talking to everyone online - meeting fans (photographers and models included) in person, and bonding with the countless people this time in my life exposed me too.

*Mr Mark in England - I havent forgotten about you and I hope your life goes well. May the love of your life love high heels and corsets as much as I do.
*Terry, I hope you find lasting love and peace.
*Flutterby Studios...I miss you, I seriously do. I hope you find success and happiness - Im sorry we parted so bitterly.
*Mr Nolan, I dont even know where to start :P
*Kitty - Don't ever loose your sweetness.
*Ken....thank you having faith enough in me to come all the way to Indy to shoot with me. You kick started a lot of my career.
*To my husband..I don't know how you deal with me, but I love you for all you do.
*Mrs Ellis, never lower your standards. Your amazing :)
*Fans & Everyone Else - you guys never let me down.

I might occassionally post a picture for the sake of memories....and I might shoot on behalf of a friend who wants a warm body for the camera - but anymore...I'm done. I had an AMAZING time, did EVERYTHING I ever wanted...and now, its time to take my bow.

Thank you.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.

I definitely understand, my dear. In fact, How are you and your other half? I think it's probably easily been years since I asked. No insult intended, just been a little busy myself as of the last few years since we spoke last. Who else will the Pope have send thank you's from his city's assessor? Hope you laughed at that one, because I did when I got the letter.

So, on an more serious level, yeah, take some time away, it will do you world's of good. I did, and I'm thankful for it. But, now, I deal with iconic retards on a daily basis, spouting about how good they are, who they know, when they really know nothing, and nothing's kin.

By the way, I hope the weather's treating you two better near the MW than we are here on the coast.

As always, still love and dedicated to you and yours, whenever/if ever you need me.

Best.
