In love and memory of those visiting and living in Manchester. Thank you. I love this city.
-
- Coming to Salford
-
- The modelling years
-
- Finding groups of neiche groups. For example; Faint Fascinations. An alt modelling group.
-
- It allowed me to meet cool models, make up artists, photographers and other cool people.
-
- From FF, I found an love for vintage clothing.
-
- Watching burlesque. Again FF introduced me to this and being sexually and body positive. And supporting those who are so.
-
- Again super important as I felt and still feel like an loner today.
-
- From the first ever shoot I did
-
- The Indie ‘Saga’ My pole dancing ex-kinda girlfriend
-
- First ever time I visited Canal Street.
-
- First ever Pride weekend. My housemate invited me. I wasn’t sure at the time but so glad she did invite me. Canal Street is one of my favorite places to visit here. Pictured; Beth Ditto from Gossip.
-
- Manchester party scene. Again, this is Canal Street
-
- Working on Hope Theatre group’s ‘Cease/Fire’. The most demanding project I’ve ever done. I felt emotionally drained and questioned my acting career afterwards. Didn’t help this year was an bad year for me, either.
-
- Cease/Fire script rehearsals.
-
- Working on short film projects. I LONG to find projects such as these, again.
-
- Uni project TV pilot. Made me wish to do more viral/short based projects
-
- Working for the Cirque Du Soleil’s. They made me more interested in circus based performances.
-
- Cabaret with the cast of Cirque Du Soleil’s Varekai.
-
- Doing mouthing karaoke before the cool kids started doing it.
-
- Salford University’s AdDram society; Almost Famous. I pretty much enjoyed these years more then the uni projects I did.
-

-
- Street vanc for ‘Dead Camp’
-
- Updating this when I find after make over but this was what my flat looked like.
-
- The #ImpactUK tour 2015. In my darkness hour… This was the most important gig I ever went to.
-
- I, for an moment forgot I was heavy depressed and thought about suicide. I got to socialize with people with similar interests.
-
- And of course how I met the genius that is Dazzy from the Max Wrestling Podcast/Magazine. Just realized this is the M.E..N arena as well.
-
- I went to see My Chemical Romance. One of my favorite bands ever.
