Does she know how much I miss her?
I think about Kat often and just now is but one of a million times in a month.
The photo on My secondary MySpace main photo is one of the last she took of Me. It was the weekend I first did a hook suspension/pull. She was there for that too, which we shot for British television. She and I had a wild weekend, with Barbee and Ugly Shyla, and we were all cooped up in that extremely small bed and breakfast where we shot these photos.
Her death came surprisingly fast. With in a month of her diagnosis she died. I was in shock. It was but a month before I had planned to see her when I was headed to attend a convention, FetishCon, in Tampa. That was right before My move to L.A. I had been so excited and filled with anticipation.
I was so proud of Kat. She was an amazing photographer and her life was filled with a ton of love, a marriage that actually nearly restored My faith in such things, and a career that was quickly reaching unheard of heights including that she had just been declared Gaultier's official personal photographer. She was sought after and in demand and I was so happy for her. Such adventures and recognition were due a person with such good karma and immense talent.
Maybe someday her husband, Chad, will give the world a precious gift and let a collection of her photos be made into a coffee table book... till then here is a place to enjoy what is left of Kattaryna....
