The girl handing me my food at Wendy’s said that I was gorgeous, and some other girl let me go in front of her at the store check out because I had less items. There is good in the world, women are it. :)

The Talented Women At Atlanta Artistic Weddings

This month is Women’s History Month and we want to give a shout out to the awesome women at Atlanta Artistic Weddings! I am so honored to have so many talented and smart women on my team!

The first person I want to celebrate is Heather Towhey. Heather is in charge of our social media posts. She is the one who came up with the Fun Fact Friday! We have gotten so many compliments on the Fun Fact Friday posts that people tune in just for those. Heather is also a talented writer and does our blog posts. She is also the one who helps me by editing my posts. She is a real star behind the scenes.

Speaking of stars behind the scenes there is Lizzie, who I do not know what I would do without. She is the one who gets your edited photos to you so quickly. Lizzie is one of the smartest and most insightful people I know. She is not only an incredible editor and designer, she is the one who gives me her unvarnished opinion on my photography that makes me a better photographer for you. Heather and Lizzie are the two people behind the scenes that shape my photography and online presence.

Now comes the people that capture your big day in photos. We have a deep bench of women that know how to capture the intimate moments of your wedding. They are the women you trust to capture your getting ready shots without being intrusive.

The first star on the women’s photographers team is Sarah Newman. She has shot over 200 weddings with me and compliments my style of photography. While I come off as an energetic game show host she is the calm bride whisperer who brings calm to the chaos of a wedding day full of moving parts.

The next star is Tara Lule. I spotted her talent in my photography class I teach at Emory. She is to this day my most gifted student I have ever had. She has a very creative approach to photography that makes her a real stand out. Tara has been with me at some of the most emotionally difficult weddings. We are definitely a group that have weathered some difficult storms.

Then there is Alex. I met her through my archaeology job. She is the geographical information system (GIS) specialist of Gwinnett county who makes all the maps. We were introduced through GIS but bonded over photography. She has a gift and eye for great photography and knows how to capture the intimate moments at a wedding.

Last but not least is my wife Daphne. She is the one that puts up with my crazy hours and raised our kids when I was not available because I was shooting weddings. She is the rock that our family needed in my absence. I love you woman! You make be a better person!

Thanks for checking out this Atlanta wedding photographers blog! I hope you enjoyed the read and that you find ways to celebrate the amazing women in your life! Make sure you keep coming back to our blog to see what the Atlanta wedding photographers at Atlanta Artistic Weddings get up to! If you’d like to contact me go to the contact page and drop me a line at https://www.atlantaartisticweddings.com/contact-atlanta-wedding-photographer. I would love to hear from you!

Thanks again!

ashes to ashes.

a short comic about the day Ash was born.

Ash's story

Red and Wolf's story

notes:

--

all my other comics

store

#we love a family with a storied history of loving women and committing mass murder #wolf is a couple years older than she was in her original comic but still just as smitten with red #i dont intend on making it a habit to connect my comics together into a shared universe #but i did make ash with the internal headcanon that she was the kid of red and wolf #if only to justify elements of her design #the gravity defying hair - the control over fire - the commitment to a black/white/red colour scheme #i wont be doing a backstory for snow btw since she's kind of just. a human being who grew up very entitled and spoiled #although maybe during her undead journey she unknowingly comes across her mothers-in-law in the mountains #(they like to live in remote snowy areas)#red would like her #thats all!#thank you for reading #sapphic art #comic art #stillindigo art #hearteaters #stillindigo comics

NGL I have STRONG opinions about digital releases omitting the letters to the editor section of older comics. I feel like the letters are a part of comic history and should be aggressively preserved.

#look i was a weirdo and loved the letters so much #so much #so fucking damn much #i still to this day mourn that we don't have them #sometimes the editors would publish blatant aggressive criticism and promise to do better on some things #it was rare but it did happen in a handful of things involving stereotypes #also there is queer history in them such as in superboy and the ravers where people wrote in about hero #asking WHY he was not interested in women and this editor had to so professionally explain that he was GAY and where they stood on it #you also got to read queer readers writing in about these queer characters and the JOY in their words is priceless #also sorry but geoff's letters are fun and stupid at the same time and are a huge insight to what his hcs were #he LOVED tiny krypto so much it likely inspired him making dex starr bc he loved the idea of a small overly powered animal #not saying that was the main reason why ofc but it is interesting that he created dex after praising that mean little mutt #i say with the most love #my venting #my rambles

Does anyone else hate that meme about only boys thinking about the Roman Empire and girls (and some gay men) gleefully being like “I only think about [insert current pop culture trend]”.

And it’s like continuing the meme that boys are intelligent beings, interested in history while girls are just…not

This coupled with the girl math thing, and also the “boys when they time travel vs. girls” and overall bimbofication trend. We’e going back in time where pretending to be stupid and vapid was the norm and it just alienates women who are proud of their intelligence even more from other women

#more of a personal note #idk being looked down on for being interested in history by peers my own age #while boys are just praised for it #hurtssss #it’s funny because I never had trouble making female friends literally ever #not at school or uni and not really work at my casual jobs #but when I went travelling this year with a group #for the first time I couldn’t make friends with other women #merely being interested in the above hobbies made me dull and uninteresting to them #and part of me thinks it’s too do with this overall infantilisation dumbing down of women #:(((

Random thought but have you ever noticed that breadtube is...misogynistic? Idk, as someone who used to watch a lot of breadtube (still a leftist, but as I've learned more about leftist politics and movements I find that breadtube often lacks substance - just seems like a lot of rambling without critical thinking/analysis).

Like, I can't help but notice that the lot of them shy away from topics around sex based oppression, male/female socialization, sexploitation etc (and if they're not ignoring it, they're saying that none of it is real and that those are just conservative talking points).

Idk. I just feel like a lot of people would rather watch transwomen talk about how important feminist works are actually bigoted to justify violent, misogynistic feelings toward radical feminists who discuss these things. It feels like they want to intellectualize misogyny and uphold a strawman of radical feminism so that they can validate telling women to shut the fuck up about our oppression. Am I making sense?

yes, you're totally making sense, and I decided to look into that. so I made an Excel list with the most prominent Bread Tubers, the number of their subscribers, their biological sexes and their gender identities:

if you just look at gender identity, the subscribers seem to be quite evenly distributed between men, women and non-binary people:

looks kinda fair, right?

but if we look into biological sex...

it's suddenly clear that biological males gather about 77 percent of the total subscribers, while biological females gather only about 24 percent.

doesn't seem that fair anymore, right?

but it gets even worse when you take into account the male's gender identities...

there are more subscribers to biological males with female or non-binary gender identities than subscribers to biological females???

I guess there is your answer on why bread tube does not cover issues of sexism and sex-based oppression.

...and that is why an analysis based on biological sex is important and trying to erase it will let us believe that we are closer to equality between the sexes than we actually are

My top 10 nonfiction reads of 2023 (the asterisked ones are in French with no translation as of yet) :

Belle Greene, Alexandra Lapierre

The Indomitable Marie-Antoinette, Simone Bertière

Reporter: A Memoir, Seymour Hersh

Red Carpet: Hollywood, China and the Global Battle for Cultural Supremacy, Erich Schwartzel

Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty, Patrick Keefe

Servir les riches, Alizée Delpierre*

La Comtesse Greffulhe : L’ombre des Guermantes, Laure Hillerin*

Le Courage de la nuance, Jean Birnbaum*

The Book Collectors of Daraya, Delphine Minoui

Flowers of Fire: The Inside Story of South Korea's Feminist Movement, Hawon Jung

#book recs #i haven't finished the last one yet but it's been good so far! i really admire these women's resilience and solidarity #some inspiring stories of political activism + insight into aspects of korean history i didn't know about #i wanted to do a half-fiction half-nonfiction list like last year but i've read mostly disappointing fiction this year :(#my favourites were probably kivirähk's the man who spoke snakish & catherynne valente's radiance; though it wasn't as good as orphan tales #i'm reading jacques abeille's les jardins statuaires right now and it's quite frustrating because on the one hand #it's well-written and interesting with original worldbuilding. on the other i'm 300 pages in and there have been #2 female characters. the purpose of both (so far) was to have sex with the male protagonist and only 1 has a name #which makes the read feel less original and more ''same old shit as far as i'm concerned''
