Urban Cow Girl


Last summer when cults swore the world was coming to an end and many believed global warming was going to kill us all during what seemed like the heat wave of the century, I finally grew "vagina lips" to woman up and commit to my first photo shoot. So, like dedicated morons, on possibly the hottest day of the summer of 2007, my photographer and myself met in the deep inner city of the metropolitan in which we reside. Quickly, a photo shoot location was agreed upon and the project commenced. What we thought were the remains of a governmental housing development acted as a sharp contrast to the soft country feel of my cowgirl get-up. Click, Click, Click ....as the camera snapped I became more comfortable and my jitters subsided. All proved carefree until a sharp voice from above us stabbed the blanket of the hot summer air that encompassed us. To make a long story short, my photographer and I were solicited to purchase this boarded up pile of decaying erection...ha ha erection ....anyway I digress...two finder binders happened right in front of our "on-site" shoot, I burned my self on a blue BFI garbage dumpster attempting a creative pose to capture, and a lot of other random crap occurred in a whirlwind of chaos! I must, however, note I find beauty in the most humble, unkempt of conditions....even the remains of what many of us refer to as "the projects". Thanks to the little run down housing complex with its aged character.
