Encounters

It might be said that I’m composing too many of my photos with the subject’s head in the top left corner too often. I don’t even realize that I’m doing it until I see a stack of photos that all have a similar composition. Who gives a shit, so long as the subjects are [...]

ANONYMOUS

This man was so proud to be strutting around Mount Vernon with his impossibly short shorts.

Baltimore Pride

Chet won the High Heel race again this year. He wore sensible chunky heels. That is key.

Driving in the parade.

I forget what this woman’s name is, but she is some kind of dyke royalty. She sat in the middle of the street, with people circling around her like she was a queen. One of [...]

Grace

I met Grace at a 4th of July party six years ago. We had only been in Baltimore for a few weeks and I didn’t know anyone. I was thrilled to meet her because I feel incomplete if I don’t have a trannie friend and there she was, just waiting for me to befriend her. [...]

Ottobar 80s Prom

Ponytail

Ponytail celebrated the release of their new CD Ice Cream Spiritual last week. I don’t like writing about music because I never know how to explain it and music reviews always sound cliché or pretentious. Let’ just say I know what I like when I hear it and Ponytail is rad. And I never [...]

Encounters

Three Polaroid encounters this week…

RENEE. I made her promise not to open bottles with her teeth after I took this photo.

KIM & LIZ. I asked them to sit so straight. Does it work?

LATE NIGHT POLAROIDS

Last Friday, I stopped in at Josh Sisk’s open studio and drank from the box of wine and took a few Polaroids. He has a very pretty camera and nice lights and one day I am going to have him teach me how to perfect the smoldering look that he does so well (see below).

JOSH [...]
