I'm grateful for this weekend being both fairly chill but also eye opening in the sense of how much more comfortable I'm feeling in myself. I found myself in a comfortable position, a dog (human) between my cowboy boots for part of the evening and bootblacking at the other times.
Two takeaways, I need that hood and second, if you're ever in my neck of the woods @smokedober.bsky.social, let's shoot 😈📸
You meet this nasty leather-clad sleazebag in the middle of the woods, wyd?
It's been good to get back to what I enjoy. 📸 Hoping to finally pin some time down to do some studio based work. Volunteers would be amazing 🥰

I am one of the worst kind of photographers you'll work with... 📸
A little quiet on the photo front, so been experimenting with some self portraits.
Back on the editing floor this evening. Shame I haven't got a pup or boy to indulge whilst they're down there 😈
Someone get this gorgeous man in front of my camera, pronto! 📸
Muir cap Monday
Back this evening at Manchester Leathermen social to bootblack and get my hands dirty once more 😋
Howdy. 🤠 Been having fun wearing these leather jeans and boots, especially now it's gotten a little colder.

Come closer~ I might be hiding some treats here and there 😘 Photo done by @boothoundmcr.bsky.social
Been a very leather cowboy evening. No boot troubles either!
Hoping to confirm the potential shooting schedule for Manchester Leather Weekend in the upcoming month or so.
I'm not always the best with my words when it comes to speaking but I know from my experiences in the leather scene that what I'm doing is my means of giving back full circle as a Bootblack.
One thing I'm guilty of is chasing the past version of myself, only to forget that I have a present version of myself to nurture and a future version to bring focus towards. I want the present me to focus more on improving his health, having more fun and being present in the moment, where possible.
Bootblacking 🥾 Virtue: getting to see your work reflected in front of you ✨ Vice: getting a slight itch to worship said boots, particularly tall leather boots...
