Starting to work again

I have not written a blog or shot in a while. I have not shown my work in about 4 months. It is strange but sometimes we must step back before we can step forward. I am starting to shoot again I think I have been able to cut loose some of the more destructive parts of my madness. I know things about myself, not pretty things but dark things that have pulled me down underwater time, and time again. So now I face them, I hold them close to me... I am me all that good and all that bad. My work is all part of that, some say I am a pervert, others say I am not peverted enough and I am just a poser. Who knows, who cares all I know is that I good at making images, people pay me to do it. But I have come away understanding that money is not enough. Part of being the sort of photographer I am has a dark side to it that understand so well. Yes I am a pervert, but what does that really mean. I am looking for soul, and beauty in sex, nudity... I don’t see myself as a pornographer I see myself as an artist. I understand that much of what I do is just something that people jerk off to... But to me it is an exploration of beauty and sensuality one of the few things in this life that keeps humanity coming back for.
