About Me

Some things people have said about my work:
"This is so exciting... Its a little risque... It's not... Um... Ah... This is not... Yeah... It's not Porn! It's definitely not porn."
--Bill Press, nationally syndicated talk show host.
"This is a great work of art, I must say. Its like something my father would hang in the garage when I was a kid."
--Bill Press, one week later.
"Guaranteed to get your heart rate going and your blood pressure up."
--Christy Harden Smith, LeftInTheWest.
"Professionally and sexily lensed..."
--Wells Dunbar, Austin Chronicle.
"The women he captures offer inticate and vibrant mosaics... The viewer is often left with a hungry curiosity, piecing together the plot of his prismatic, silent movie."
--Sez G, Eros Zine
"suavely directed by Burke Heffner."
--Matthew Murray, talkinbroadway.com

I adore your work. If you were ever interested, I would love to shoot with you. -

Once you get your smoking jacket, can I sit on the arm rest of your big fancy chair as you open letters in front of a fireplace? -

Hello! Great work as always! -
Hello new friend! Thank you muchly for your votes. I belive I owe you some bonus outtakes, so if you send me your email I will have them over to you in no time. Cheers!
Also: Are those stilts in your pants or are you just happy to see me? ;) -
Thanks for the friendship! I love burlesque and I'm happy that we have quite a few great burlesque artists here in the Northwest. -
Thank you for acceptingmy friend request! Btw, I love your avatar pic. Did you make the jacket? -
I did... then sadly I tried to wash it one day and that was the end of it. -
Oh booo!! I have a couple of outfits that I have to be really careful with. I foolishly threw a vintage dress in the washer and the seams all started coming apart. I still haven't fixed it yet :/ -
I want to drive to NY ;) -

you know that i know that you MUST already own a smoking jacket. just sayin'. you ARE a dapper motherfucker. -
I'm a little embarrassed to say I don't. I should. I really should. It is my style but no. -
That letter opener sounds mega hot! I agree with Babs, a photo of you with your smoking jacket and letter opening would be sweeet! -
Well, if you all insist. -
Posted on 03/21/2012 by EnglishBabs
Sounds a very cool letter opener. When you get your smoking jacket, how about a new profile photo of you wearing it with your new letter opener? -
That's wonderful! It is in a somewhat obscure place but I think that's why it's a great place to live. :) -
Thanks for accepting!! Have a great day! ;) -

Haha that would be so awesome, I'd so watch that musical and sing along too! How would one direct that scene exactly... I'm laughing just picturing that one. It might have to be a comedy as well, don't think I could take that too seriously lol -
True, very true......bad sex does the same thing only in a negative way! -
