Just emerged from my Susan's probationary cocoon and since you were all kind enough to share your gorgeous selves with me (seriously JennyGirl your photos make me so damn happy,) I thought I'd share my pre-HRT photos here so y'all know what I look like. At 6'2" and with a visible adam's apple, I'm not stressing too badly about passing at this point in my journey

Please forgive the cloudy (and somewhat falsely flattering) nature of these photos either the mirror is dirty, the Lifeproof case I keep my phone in is or the lighting is not optimal. Also I haven't digitally cleaned up the make up in any of these shots (that I can recall) and I tend to take a lot of them on the road, after very long work days so don't be too harsh on me if I look like yesterday's drag show. LOL.

Here I was experimenting with styling a basic (in this case a boat neck grey t-shirt) I really enjoy fashion and I'll try any look if I think I can make it work.

This was after a 16 hour documentary shoot day as the last person was let out of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I took one of their leis so I could make a dad joke about getting lei'd on the Facebooks. Har Har HAR.

An attempt to style the first dress I ever bought and one which I had long since deemed "dowdy" on me. The hat is from Urban Outfitters and I'm in love with it.

This is from when I said, "screw it!" and went out without caking on the theatrical funeral mask that I usually use for makeup. That's me enjoying a day at the park with my wife and my three year old daughter in the back there on the playground. My beverage of choice: Crispin Honey Crisp Hard Cider.
