"When you come to the edge of all that you know, you must believe one of two things: There will be earth upon which to stand, or you will be given wings to fly."

All images are copyright Michelle C. Thomas, and may not be used without permission.
Please Note: I do not work for free. I have been getting an obnoxious amount of requests that I donate my photos to X, Y, or Z, while being told that I will "get credit," in one case essentially being told that my photos would help them make money, and in another case someone actually asked for a photo and in the very next breath complained about copyrights and having to pay for photos. It is NOT FLATTERING, and I am NOT INTERESTED. I am not interested in working for fee; I have to survive, just like you, and I am pretty sure you wouldn't appreciate being told you'd "get credit" but no compensation for your time and talent. The world does not work this way, and I am not that naive to think that having my name attached to a bunch of projects makes me anything other than a sucker. Which I am NOT. So please stop treating me as one, because my patience is wearing thin with your rudeness. Also, pleast stop with the yanking my photos to throw on your blog. The "All Rights Reserved" listed on every photo actually does mean something. Thanks!

nickgphoto says:
"Em's style is very unique. Being well read, she goes deeper into her minds eye to pull together themes that are visually interesting and cerebral.
She has the innate sense of vision that allows her to visualize her finished work and use almost anything as a source of texture, light, content, to provide compelling imagery.
One of the Carolina's finest examples of visual ingenuity."17th September, 2011
