About

The page below was last revised in 2016 and I think it’s a cute time capsule so I’m leaving it as is, and only changing relevant outbound social links to reflect my place on the internet in 2024:

If you want to see a current ‘about me’ page
If you want to see my boudoir photography business Neon Velvet Studio
If you want to see my non-boudoir photography
If you want to see me write things in 300 characters or less, I’m on bluesky.
My blogging is mostly photography-related now.

Writing about writing, and sometimes also booze. And zombie movies. And god knows what else.

This about sums it up.

I’m Cassie. I’m a writer/photographer born in New Jersey and living in the Philadelphia area. One time I graduated college. I know this because the bills are still coming.

I’m a hazard while driving.

I love metal and rockabilly and quoting far more rap music than I actually listen to. I’m an avid hockey fan and the Devils’ consecutive years without a playoff berth are causing me emotional distress. I’ve got a pile of tattoos and rainbow hair and I hate when strangers think that means they’re allowed to touch me.

This must be what going mad feels like.

I’m a poor role model but not a bad person. I’m the Queen of Bad Advice. I have an addiction to coffee that really is a problem.

I spend a lot of time reading books in the bathtub.

I have two cats that think I’m their servant. I have a dog that orbits me like a shedding moon. Biscotti is the best because no one can scold you for eating cookies for breakfast.

My boyfriend kinda looks like Jake Voracek.

That guy? He’s pretty much my favorite person. I’m pretty whimsical and he is very tolerant. It’s a nice pairing.

I’ve got these crazy friends.

If you want to see me writing about cooking, and sometimes also eating, you can read YouFoodIsNotSoGreat.

Also gingerdead men!
