Office Monkey by day, Hardcore/DrumNBass/Hard House DJ/raverazzi by night.

Beer drinker always.

I currently reside in Pittsburgh, PA, USA, my hometown, on Mt. Washington with my wonderful boyfriend Pete (peterlee) and my wonderful weiner dogs (Blitz and Otto).

you have probably been directed here via kooterkore.com. kooterkore used to be my dj crew, which was made up of all female djs who are based in hard dance music. Most of said djs have moved on or retired, so basically kooterkore lives on as just me and my stuff. I believe that the name will eventually change since it doesn't really fit the photo side of me, but for now it stays as is.

i also head up the Lolli.org paparazzi, you can find our shots at lolli.org

the majority of my shots are from raves and clubs. that is my favorite thing to shoot. the colors and energy are always ridiculously good, and plus it makes me happy to capture your memories. i know how awesome it is to find an awesome picture of yourself from a sick party. if you see your face, feel free to steal the shot. all i ask is that you please do not remove my logo, and please give me credit for my work.

i also like to get drunk and party, so when you come across shots from my point and shoot, thats what the majority of them are. drunk party shots.

I'm slowly but surely getting into street photography and the like. I also enjoy shooting a good storm.

I work with the Pittsburgh Pirates FanFoto department as a photographer. It's my second job, the extra, fun job that pays for camera stuff. If you come to a game, find me and I'll take your pic :)

i rarely edit my shots, 99% of my stuff is SOOC.
