I am a photographer and I'm always looking for attractive people to shoot (boys don't seem to like getting their photograph taken, so more people with a penis please), so let me know if you're interested.

I am usually, almost always in fact terrible at introductions. I stumble with words, or say stupid things or mostly just look at the ground. I always find those moments of the unknown hard to handle, I don’t know you and you don’t know me. I don’t like it at all.

So, Let me introduce myself.

I’m a boy and was born in 1987, growing up was difficult I just wanted to stay young and innocent. I spend most of my time watching kids tv, eating and combing barbies hair. I spent the rest of it trying to make sure no one saw me combing barbies hair. Most of my now adult days, if I’m not taking photographs or if I’m not out, I can usually be found completely wasting my time watching old B-movies, Japanese drama or Anime.

I take a lot of photographs, not as many as I’d like and I wouldn’t say it was my life, it is an incredibly big part of my life, an accessory to my life I suppose. Like a Westwood brooch on a blazer, except a lot more important and probably less expensive. I am inspired by photographers with an intimate style and snapshot aesthetic. nan goldin, wendy bevan, fergus padel, ellen von-unwerth. I constantly come across work that astounds me.

As a throwback to youth, and a rebellion against never being allowed to have a pretty doll as a child (mostly due to my having a penis.) I am now fascinated by Blythe dolls, and think they’re incredibly sweet looking, giant headed, clickey eyed, plastic objects. I own two and I’ll probably let you see them at some point.

I have 100 Polaroid shots left, when they're gone i'm bankrupting myself to buy more

I also collect urban vinyl toys.

I’m incredibly fond of Jon Waters movies, mostly for their combination of Divine, Ricki Lake, 50’s style ‘trashequette’ and large smears of innuendo.

I also love Bette Davis, and any movie she appears in. I prefer old movies if I’m honest, to modern ones. There’s just something about the style, and the feel and the leading ladies that our generation and society seems to really lack these days.

My favourite types of music are electro, indie and tweepop. I like anything with reoccurring ‘baa’ sounds, handclaps, or electric beeps. Or anything that makes me dance like a twat, I judge my nights out by how much my feet hurt the next day not by how drunk I was, but if I do get drunk Malibu and coke is my drink of choice.

I like to think I’m a pretty sharp dresser, but really I wear shoes that make my feet look pointed and clothes that are far too tight and cost too much for what they are. I have an obsession with coats and own far too many, nearly all of them are double breasted with epaulets, it’s a habit.

And, I am usually, almost always in fact terrible at introductions.
