If you would like to work with me, please say hello! to me at: m3lissa[dot]guzman[at]gmail[dot]com.

By day, I tame networks & systems and make sure they're behaving. By night, I write and I am a Pokemon catcher of various bands and artists. (I would be more than happy to share, just let me know, merci beaucoup. Translation: Please do not steal my photos without asking.) Clicking the shutter is my vice. <3

I work as the Director of Photography for Ricepaper, Canada's Asian-Canadian literary and arts magazine. I'm always looking for new illustrators, artists and photographers, so if you are interested in contributing, feel free to drop me a line. :)

I like: Bunnies, Secure shell, Asymmetry, Boys with glasses, Typing in lowercase (really), Beautiful resumes, Fake vegetarianism, Instant film, Tab completion, Battlestar Galactica, Sleeping in on the weekend, Viral marketing, Wolf shirts, Syntax highlighting, StarCraft.

Bands I would love to shoot before I die: The Prodigy, Daft Punk, Nine Inch Nails.
