Day 307 of 365 days. Little known fact. The bible doesn’t actually mention what the forbidden fruit is. Most people just assume its an apple. But it doesn’t say that anywhere. I like to think it was a clementine. Why? Because clementines are just too perfect. They’re like sweet, little, baby oranges. Allow me a…

Day 306 of 365 days. Today was a crappy annoying day that I just assume never think about again, and I sure as hell don’t want to write it down here so I can relive it when I look back a week, month, year or decade down the line. Suffice it to say I am…

Day 305 of 365 days. Yet another day. Yet another GFY from yet another job. Spent the morning being depressed about that, while working on tarot cards and other photoshoot stuff. Then, Steph asked me to drive out to her office and have lunch with her at Sree’s (one of our favorite Indian Restaurants) which…

Ten of Swords

Ten of Swords

I love when i meet a model who is absolutely perfect for a Tarot card idea I have. I was talking to my friend Connie (who posed with her son for the Judgement card) and telling her of my idea for the ten and ace of swords cards. I wanted the cutest, most petite, goth girl I could find holding a broad sword bigger than she was. A minute later, Connie found Ambriella on Model Mayhem (where I’ve gotten several models for this project). I wrote her and she was totally into the idea. More pictures to come of her later, but for now, here are the cards I wanted her for. (the ace is here)

Day 304 of 365 days. So today, Steph and I drove up to Pymatuning Valley Resort to get a tour, hear a sales pitch and attempt to win $25,000. Well, two out of three ain’t bad. The resort is nice enough, I suppose, but really not great, and not the kind of place I’d spend…

Two of Coins

One of the things that makes me think that I’m getting some success as a photographer is that I now have people asking to shoot with me. That’s how I found Rana. She heard about the Tarot project from another model and wanted to be a part of it. We had our shoot yesterday, and I’m quite happy with the results. She has a nice socialite look about her which I thought went well with the coins cards. I’m behind with photo editting, but I’ll be posting other shots of her when I get to them.

Day 303 of 365 days. Just a day of hanging around… har har har… get it? Actually, it was a decent day. Late last night, I deleted and reinstalled photoshop from my computer, which helped some of my problems a bit, but its still slower than I would like it to be. I don’t really…
