Schoolgirl-Merci-3

I have a thing for school girls. Everyone has a thing for school girls. It’s a pretty common photoshoot theme too. But I wanted to explore it. Show different types of school girls with different personalities in the same classroom setting. Amaya, Merci and Marybeth were all nice enough to help me out here.

Sometimes I love this job.

The last of my Urban Terrorist series. it was fun working with the girls. I’ve worked with Chaste a couple times before (and she’s one the models that comic strip is based on, but this was the first time I got to work with Merci Rae, even though I’ve known her for a couple years. Totally worth the wait. It was great to be able to do something outside the studio and with a different look to it. I love the story telling aspect and the alternate color treatment too. I’m going to have to venture out of my comfort zone more often.

I’m actually still working on editing the photos I wanted to put up for tonight, but this may be the most badass photo I’ve ever taken and I had to get it up right away

A couple weeks ago, Merci Rae and Chaste asked me to come do an urban terrorist shoot with them. I’ll take any chance to work outside of the studio so I jumped right in. I’m glad I did. Finally got a chance to process some of the pictures tonight and decided they needed a little something extra. I decided that giving them that urban acid look would really pop the post apocalyptic nuclear future appeal.

Day 858 of 365 Again. Another day, a little better. Got the replacement power cable for my dying hard drive today. Crossed my fingers ad plugged it in, hoping that maybe everything would be better. It was… Well, a little. The drive is still dying. It still won’t stay up for very long, but I…

Day 685 of 365 More.

You know, I gave serious thought to quitting smoking today. I really did. In fact, I only had 3 cigarettes in my pack when I woke up this morning and i was like "well, that’s it. Today is the day. Just think of the money I’ll save."

Made those three last til after work. Had the last one at like 6.

I made it til like 11.

I just had to get my fix. It is so very sad.

Mike Tyson once said to Barbara Walters that he was on Zoloft for the world’s protection. "I take Zoloft to keep me from killing you." Truer words were never spoken. That Mike Tyson is a genius.

Day 392 of 365 More. So today I started filling out preliminary paperwork to start at what I’ve been calling job #2. Next week. I guess you could say its a done deal. But its not. It’s like at 99% certainty, but if life kicking me in the ass repeatedly over the last 33+ years…

Day 339 of 365 days. Another day another job I didn’t get. Its almost humorous at this point. Sometimes I don’t even specifically remember what the job was anymore. Anyway, in the interest of trying to look at the silver lining, I did decide what to do for my photography show. I wasn’t happy at…

Day 323 of 365 days. Some days you really don’t feel like taking a picture. It’s not depression really, its just not being in the mood. I stayed up late working on my Five of Swords tarot card and backing up the data on my laptop. Then I had to get up early to get…

Day 154 of 365 days. Weird thing about the way we treat ourselves. I’ve been trying really hard to whip myself into shape. If I made a New Year’s resolution that’s probably it. I’ve been working out every day, trying to dump about 13 pounds (I’m down 8 since Jan. 1). I’ve also sort of…
