About ME

Hello, my name is Nina.

My other half; His name is Jonathan. He is my best friend and my Beloved. We are two peas in a pod. We are Forever.

We have two darlings; our pretty panther “Stefani” & our pretty pup “London”

We have the best Family & Friends.

I think highly of myself and the people close to me. I love being around my loved ones but I also don’t mind being alone. I’m the type of person that can handle either or and be happy with it. I would rather be alone then settle for anybody less than what I know I deserve. I am very thankful that I do have great/worthy people in my life, they are the ones I let into my world and hold in my heart.

You will never hear me say I’m bored. There is always something to do. I keep myself entertained, multi-tasking various projects, etc. I have too many talents to ever be bored.

I’m officially a Photo Editor/Manipulator {intermediate}. I just did a project for the new Burning Image CD “Fantasma” {It was released in May 2009}. Just made a new flyer {Halloween concert for a bunch of bands}. I also do extra projects for bands, so they can use what I make for T-shirts, sites, or whatever they’d like. Sometimes I even fix up/organize their websites directly for them :}

I’m into photography {amateur/beginner} and constantly taking pictures {you should see my collection here at home!}. My photos have been featured on some news sites, friends pages, etc.

I’m Freelance: If you are interested in having me do any work for you please feel free to contact me. Thank you to all of my supporters/fans, you always help inspire me to keep doing my art.

Last but not least, I am a Company Manager for a business I have worked at since 2000. I’m very loyal and I love my job.

We are constantly traveling and love every second of it. Our next BIG trips will be to Germany – London – & Paris.

Be yourself. Make your own path. No matter what you do somebody will always have something to say. Take any negativity and turn it positive. It makes you stronger, smarter, and shows you have something more to offer than the person trying to bring you down.

We turn heads.

Our life is unquestionably the best.

Dazzling & Breathtakingly Beautiful

Do people label you?

Yes. Almost every single person that meets me; thinks, calls me, and asks if I’m “Goth”. My boyfriend, close family & friends call me a “Rivethead” {they know me best & they know the differences}. A lot of people don’t know the differences & they should really look it up *laughs* Just incase you don’t know, here is a little info from wikipedia “Female rivets may play along the femme fatale look with sexuality as power. Common are short skirts, military wear, knee-high stiletto heel boots, vinyl, leather or PVC bustiersand corsets, and lip gloss with less makeup than goths. Colorful synthetic pony falls or hair extensions and colorful vinyl are seen, but are more known as cybergoth wear.” & “Goth fashion is stereotyped as a dark, sometimes morbid, eroticized fashion and style of dress. Typical gothic fashion includes dyed black hair, dark eyeliner, black fingernails, black period-styled clothing; goths may or may not have piercings. Styles are often borrowed from the Elizabethan, Victorian or medieval period and often express Catholic or other religious imagery such as crucifixes or ankhs.”  There is a lot that describes me under both {the fashion, music, etc}, so hey strangers, take your pick, you will anyways *evil grin* – I do NOT label myself as there is too much about me to ever do that.

Do you feel it is possible for anyone to truly be satisfied with their life and living in general?

I could go on and on about how satisfied and happy I am with my life because I truly am but I am NOT one of those people that thinks “being satisfied” means my life is perfect or {in other words} has reached a point where all has been accomplished and there’s nothing else to achieve or improve on. I mean, yes, I could live happily with what I already have in life and what I have accomplished… but life is an adventure for me and there’s a lot of life out there to explore. When I have accomplished my goals, I set more. I’m one to always keep busy; traveling, learning, helping, creating, etc. Some people think that keeping busy or setting any sort of future goals means you are not happy, which is completely un-true in my case. I’m an uber happy person. I completely love my life but I’m a very self motivated, creative, positive person that knows there is so much to life and I want to experience as much as I can. My Life is Beautiful.

What do you think about people that take nothing but extreme angled photos?

Oh my goth! In my opinion, I think it’s hilarious! If it’s once in a while that you take these types of photos then that is fine. Now, if almost your entire collection OR every single picture you take is the camera at some extreme/looking down at you angle, then it’s really just… funny! I have seen a lot of profiles or photos from certain individuals and it’s always these arm’s length or extreme angles of them looking way up at the camera, or they never post a full body length photo, hahahahahaaaa. What it comes down to is people being in-secure with themselves {in some cases no creativity or talent}. - I take photos from all angles, including the dreaded cam looking up from under shot, that I personally don’t think is a big deal {I don’t dread it}, and I take full on body shots. I just have fun and take as many types of pictures as I can. I’m completely secure in my entire self, inside and out. People can look at my pictures all they want. If they love it they love it, if they hate it they hate it. To each their own, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
