Let's be honest - you don't really need a photographer partner to be an exhibitionist. All you need is a seductive caption, a little flirtation, maybe a dash of desperation, and you can easily attract a decent following with fuzzy mobile phone photos and free filters. It's simple and easy, and some may even call it lazy, but it works. Thing is, I'm not a fan of being lazy.
To be upfront, photography is not my career, but it is my primary hobby and even childhood passion. I was nine-years-old when I had my first dark room lesson. I was eleven when I purchased my first digital camera. My cameras have been on mountaintops and deep in the ocean. My home is decorated with prints from my travels.
In my early twenties I started to do boudoir photography. It started with a friend of mine needing photos to promote her escort business, and after that first successful shoot, I was referred out to others needing the same. Boudoir is now my primary focus, pun fully intended, but there's so many exciting realms to photograph in, and I'm looking for a partner to join me in the next step of my artistic journey.
About Me
As mentioned, photography is not my career. As much as I love it, I also recognized early on how challenging it would be to have a sustainably active lifestyle as a photographer. My career is in STEM, and in a bit of a niche area. I'm currently a senior engineer in my field, with the skill and aspirations to become a future leader in my industry.
I'm a very active person - I like to go out hiking and backpacking, and I'm at the gym 3 days a week. But I can also be a homebody. I'm a gamer at heart (love my roleplaying games!), and am always down for a relaxing or competitive evening of board games.
I love live performances. Metal shows, comedy shows, broadway and off-broadway. My favorite bands are Nightwish and Diablo Swing Orchestra. I will go out of my way to see Tom Segura, John Mulaney, or Daniel Sloss when they're on tour.
Lastly, I'm a bit of a geek. Huge fan of fantasy, enjoy the occasional anime, and was a cosplayer in my heyday (and even won an award one time for my work!). Reading check - if you respond, make sure your message includes your favorite color.
Kinkwise, I am very kink friendly and my kinks are plentiful that sometimes it's just easier to say what I'm not into (scat, blood, needles, anything that causes permanent injury, etc.). My top kinks are all forms of bondage (bonus points if you're a rope bunny), impact play, orgasm control/denial, toys, and, well, exhibition naturally.
I am childfree.
I am currently ENM, but am open to closing into a monogamous relationship.
Physically I'm Caucasian, 5'-9", tattoo'd and fit.
What I'm looking for
Primarily I am looking for someone who has an exhibition kink. It does not have to be fully identifying - as a boudoir photographer I fully respect the anonymity of my clients and never publish anything I do not have explicit permission to. The same would be said of whatever we decide to create together.
My ideal partner is not sedentary. I do not need someone who's at the gym every morning at 5AM (I'm a night owl anyway), but I do need someone who won't dread a 5 mile hike.
My ideal partner is also geeky in her own way, and loves to share it. Fellow board gamers jump the queue. If you cosplay, I will be over the moon!
My ideal partner is mentally and financially stable. I am not looking for someone to fix. I believe in proactive mental health, not reactive.
I have a special love for anyone who is alternative - it's not something I can embrace 100% with my career sadly, but if you have tattoos, piercings, dye your hair, etc., we'll get along very well!
Thanks for reading this massive wall of text. It is probably a turn-off for most, but those aren't the people I'm interested in anyway!
