...and heaven in a wild flower. Hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour." Props if you know who wrote that and just in case you didn't, well, you'll just have to ask me! In any case, you came here to read about me and not some long dead romantic poet, am I right?

I'm a pretty open minded guy with some dreams he's chasing after. I've just started working for a wedding photographer and I'm absolutely thrilled to be doing something I've wanted to do for so long! When I see an amazing photograph, it's electric... the swell of emotion from seeing that perfect moment captured in time. That is what I aspire to!

I love to go driving to the middle of nowhere on beautiful summer days with the stereo blasting and no destination in mind. Speaking of music, I can say that my tastes range from old school rock to industrial, dashed with a bit of hip hop and finished off with a sprig of indie goodness. About the only thing I don't like is twangy country... my current faves are Deer Tick, Strung Out, Pennywise, Rise Against, Telefon Tel Aviv, Tycho, and Tokyo Police Club.

I love to go to hole in the wall bars and ethnic restaurants. I crave conversation and solitude in equal doses, so you'll more than likely find me hanging out with my friends, reading a good book, or jamming on some video games.

Some more miscellaneous things about moi: I'd recently lost some weight, but put a bit back on after quitting Atkins. I'm stubborn and loyal to a fault (must be my Sicilian heritage). I'm also a total gaming geek and a voracious reader when the mood strikes me. A gourmand I am not, but I do appreciate really good food. I experiment in the kitchen every once in awhile... occasionally I get it right, but the pumpkin cheesecake I made really needed some work.

Photography and writing are things I dabble in, but I love fooling around in Photoshop and creating wallpapers, signatures, and graphics in general. I'm a graphic designer for a local ISP, and some of my stuff has appeared in Playboy, Super Street, and Need For Speed: Underground.

I have no problem opening doors for a lady, but you'll just as likely find me laughing at a raunchy joke. In short, I'm smooth and fun yet unrefined.

What I'm seeking: A super model to be my sugar mommy. Ok, seriously now, what I'm looking for is pretty simple. Honesty, passion, and the ability to dream. Someone who can appreciate the simple things in life and not get caught up in the small stuff. Everything else is negotiable. So what are you waiting for? Write me already! :D

We'd start out at a little Italian ristorante down by the river with conversation over drinks and dinner. A walk down by the riverfront and coffee at a cozy little shop to follow it up. Lastly, an amazing good night kiss! ;)
