Went out on a shoot with Michael Afonso yesterday, got some good shots that will be up later this week! Check out his stream, there will be a lot up there very soon! As we were walking back from the last location we saw all these cows waling towards us and we were both snapping a few shots of them. This is one I really liked.

SOOC In Comments

I'm trying to just go through all the recent photos that I have taken and try and be, a less picky editor I guess you could say. In the past I always am so crucial on what to edit, I felt as if it didn't amaze me sooc then it won't be any good and not worth showing anyone.

So lately I have been editing more and more photo's that I have taken on my shoots trying to produce as much good work as I can. I really feel a lot more confident in editing now than I ever did before and I think that it def helps a lot! I hope I can get some more shoots in soon, and I'm getting over my food poisoning! Also I think I may put up a small editing tutorial maybeeeeee.

This was just another shot that I liked from the shoot I did with Alicia, def less of a flare than this one but I def still like it!

Let me know what you guys think! :3

Was looking through some of the shots I took of Alicia again to make sure I didn't overlook anything good, this is another one that I really like, little bit less of a flare but I love the bokeh!

So I basically have food poisoning, been throwing for the past 2 days and it is NOT fun at all. Had a shoot planned for tomorrow but I don't think I am up for that, stomach is just in constant knots, if anyone has ever had it before they know how bad it sucks. & now I think I can only upload like 1 more photo for the month because I don't have a pro account :( sighhh.

Let me know what you guys think! :3

Planned a last minute shoot the other day with Alicia, went to this awesome Quail hunting place, the people were really nice about my taking pictures and I got some really nice shots. This is an idea that I saw from Jordan Voth, he is amazing go check him out!

I think this came out pretty solid, for some reason was tricky getting the exposure right but I dig it! Lemme know what you guys think! Comments and criticism very welcome!

Another shot of Katie Blake! I got my 8th photo of my 365 done today and I managed to bang out some more edits of Katie Blake! This is one of the shots that I really liked, I might be editing more and If so I might post them, or just keep posting them in this ones comments, we will see!

Today I went to school, hung out with Mike and then his gf also all night and we went and saw the movie "The Social Network". I was pretty impressed with it, It got great reviews and I thought it was a very well done movie, I really enjoyed it. Sadly there was not a lot of people at the midnight release though, ha.

Let me know how you guys are feeling about this edit and such! I appreciate everyones constructive criticism! Now to find someone to shoot for tomorrow's 365 photo! I'm feelin' some natty light in focus this time!

Sorry for not having a description last night for this shot I had to finish up some essays! So yesterday I started my diet it went pretty well. I procrastinated my homework until late, around 10:00 p.m. which def wasn't a good idea! But Katie Blake came over to help me out with my 365 and shoot for a bit! She did awesome and I really enjoyed how the pictures came out! She's and awesome makeup artist so if anyone in the area needs to get their hair/makeup done go check her out HERE!

Let me know what you guys think.

"Motion" Style edit photo in comments go see!

Woke up late today called up Bryan to bang out an idea that I had for a photo that I had been wanting to do for a while now. I also revised my Black and White editing and I think that it came out pretty well! I'm going to be posting another different sort of edit in the comments so keep a look out for that very soon!

Let me know what you guys think about it!

I just want to thank everyone for commenting and favoring this! I'm really happy how this shot turned out and I am extremely happy that it got explored. None of this would be possible without all of you! Thankyou! :]

Today was rough. Full of hopes that were then shattered very quickly after. I won't go into details giving my followers a sob story but I've seen better days.

Today is also the day that i wished for a canon 5d mark ii like no other. I feel like if I had that camera with a 50mm f/1.4 these shots would of just really stood out a lot more. I'm trying to get a hold of shooting natural light more with my d80 but its hard. I see pictures from people that shoot with a canon 5d mark ii that ONLY shoot natural light and there just amazing, it really gets me thinking that I should sell my studio equipment and put it towards a new camera but I know i will never do that. The studio is a great luxury of mine and I know i would miss it.

But I shot for the new Fall line of Live To Love apparel today w/ Sal. It went great, might post another tonight or that tomorrow as well as a new one for the 365. I see a lot of people who take strange pictures for there 365, like a horrible shot of cookies and milk or something like that. I'm going to try my very best to keep it going with actual human subject with maybe the occasional product shot with these cool old camera's I have, but it is only day 3 too early to tell how hard it may get.

I hope you guys are digging this as much as you are Teals shot! Lemme know what you think!

Haha I almost forgot! As we were driving back to my house we passed these 2 weird guys in a pickup truck and the one in the passenger seat was seriously drinking milk out of a 1 gallon milk jug. I'd day it was almost half full.. It was hilarious.

MUST SEE B&W IN COMMENTS!

Teal came over to take some shots of the New Live To Love Apparel line coming out on Monday and we did some quick shots before she changed into all the shirts. We were both looking for different poses and emotion in photo's. I think the first one she looks pretty "fierce" an and I really don't have any pictures in that pose at all, Its unique to me and I liked it. The second one was after she almost fell from trying to do a certain pose, I thought it would complement the first one also expressing a lot of emotion in it.

More tomorrow of course! :3

Lemme know what you guys think about it, the lighting was a little different from usual but it worked out ok I think. I wish I could light the whole body equally. I think if I had a larger space to work with my pictures would come out so well.
