I mostly felt like an outsider in the gay community my whole life. I made my peace with it a long time ago, and it’s not something that I feel bad about, it’s just a fact. But having to become an event photographer for a lot of gay events, I am the ultimate fly on the wall.

Some moody lights and shadows from my morning sun in my apartment. Speaking of which, I have signed my lease. No cosigners, no bullshit. I worked really hard chipping away my debt and getting my debt/credit score where I needed to be. Adulting is hard but SOMETIMES worth it.
