everyone has talent. what is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads.

--erica jong

i am a burlesque performer, dancer, actor, photographer, model, ordained minister, and social butterfly living in columbia missouri. my brother and i run fyrefae productions, our creative collaboratory of whatever we are passionate about and interested in at the time. currently we organize live dark burlesque and cabaret events, take scads of photos, peddle the fruits of my domesticity, and flit about supporting others' creative endeavours. it is a lovely, complex, busy life i lead!

since i've only got a free account, there's just the most recent 200 photos i've published. i take tons more and delete them when i add new ones. your best bet is to check back every so often to see where i've been last.
