Some News!!

Hey friends!! 


It's been a minute since I've written anything to you, but I wanted to take a second to thank all of you so much for all of your support since March. Relaunching my Patreon with a more focused vision was kind of scary but the way you all came through was super amazing! I've been quietly saving for the past couple of months, doing small things like investing in business cards and putting money away for eventual plane tickets. And well... now it's time to start telling you about those plane tickets I've bought.


In case you didn't already figure it out from the header image, I'M GOING TO FANTASTIC ARCADE! I'm so excited to be able to document a games event I've never been to before, and it's all thanks to you wonderful Patrons!! Your support is making it possible for me to go to Austin for the first time. Better still, I'll be working directly with the organizers of Fantastic Arcade which will hopefully mean the photos I take will have a public home online somewhere. 


This is just the first of many posts like this. Each time I'm able to go somewhere new thanks to y'all, I plan to let you all know about it over here. I can't quite pay the bills with my photography yet, but for now I can use your support to go new places I wouldn't be able to without you. Hopefully soon I'll be able to start sharing brand new exclusive content, but for now I hope these words of appreciation will be enough.


Thank you <3

June Sample Pack

After taking a month off to build up a little more content, I'm back with another free sample pack for new folks! If you've been wondering about what kind of work I do and whether or not you'd like to become a Patron to me, I hope this will help encourage you to support me. These past two months have been a special treat of good lighting and interesting bands. Looking back, I'm a little disappointed that I've been too busy to really go to as many shows as I'd like to! Now that we've got that nice summer weather I hope to make a change in that. Here's to posting more photos soon!

Hello, I Bought A Computer

Hey, wow! This post is exciting to me for a couple of reasons. First of all, I am now up to date on the exclusive content that I've been uploading here! When I first created my Patreon I was really excited to have a place to showcase photos that would otherwise not see the light of day for a very long time. I would like to thank you all for your support since November, and I hope you've enjoyed getting to see photos no one else has access to yet. This has been a great project, and I'm really happy to have a little less hiding in my backlog. If you follow me on Tumblr you already know this, but I recently had to take a day job I'm not particularly excited by. As a sort of consolation prize for having to do something difficult, I decided to take out a credit card and get myself a new laptop. The computer I've been using up until this point was an older model desktop, and while it helped me get the job done ultimately it was kind of hurting my productivity. It was slow and immobile, and given how often I travel it made things very difficult for me. I decided to go all out and buy a top of the line machine, and the difference its made already has been incredible. I'm able to do way more than I was before, and I can't wait to take advantage of that to share more things with you. While I will be using some of my earnings from the previously mentioned day job to pay off my debt, your support through Patreon will also be helping me chip away at what I owe as well. I'll still be using your support to pick up other kinds of supplies to give back to you guys a little bit more, but this computer is an important supply as well! Because of all these great things that have happened, it also opens up the door for me to give you new kinds of content. Now that I have a smaller backlog to tend to, I would like to start using this as a space to write more. I used to write all the time and have been wanting to get back into that habit for a while but I know tiny steps are so important! I do intend to eventually launch a public blog, but until then I want to give my Patrons even more exclusive content. In return, I hope you'll be active commenters and help me grow as I try to get comfortable expressing myself through writing again. I'll have some more cool news soon! Let's keep working hard and making great things!!
