The Seven Sins Personified: Gluttony – Written by Alexander X. Laymen

The delectable morsel quickly slipped down my gullet, as I gulped down my goblet of wine, flushing my taste buds with a rush of flavor. It was nothing for me to down a platter of food in a matter of moments, so much so that a mere man would bust his gut in order to match my pace. Day in and day out, I down my food, never getting enough, and full only to a certain extent as my pantry cannot hold a candle to the storage of this bottomless stomach.

Pacing the width of the dining room, my gut rumbles with each and every heavy step of my enormous feet. I impatiently wait for the delivery of my next meal, uncaring of the absence of my feline friend that hissed only a moment ago.

“Never mind the feline,” I told myself, mumbling sweet nothings to the silverware that I held in my boulder sized hands.

Melodie Yvonne

Melodie Yvonne, lead photographer and owner of Photographic Melodie, grew up in the small southern Indiana town of North Vernon. She picked up her first camera at the age of 5, and was immediately hooked. By the age of 15 she began to turn every trip, even just to the local park, into a fantasy scene of her own imagination, and started mentoring with many local professionals. Melodie received an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Technologies majoring in Photography from Ivy Tech in 2002 after studying under acclaimed professors and many other masters in the field.

Melodie’s main focus has always been music photography. Growing up listening to many amazing musicians inspired her dream to create visual images that made people feel the way they do when listening to music. Her goal was to help people SEE the music.

Melodie has done numerous jobs around the country ranging from working for bands to being the official photographer on many southern Indiana Poker Runs. Her specialties are in nature, music, and candid event photography. She published her first print work, a collection of images & poetry, in 2011, and has since published many more print works. Melodie currently acts as owner & lead photographer at Photographic Melodie, House Photographer for Purdue Theatre, and Tour Photographer for multiple Billboard Charts topping bands as well as freelance work with many other media outlets, venues, and musicians.
