Day 308 of 365 days. Had another phone interview today. Unlike the previous job, I’m not super excited about it, and it pays less than I was hoping for, and isn’t really doing what I want to be doing. So you know, that’s probably the one I’ll get, right? Well, that or I’m going to…
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…
Day 296 of 365 days. So, I’ve had a bunch of guest stars in my 365 shots lately (mostly models during photoshoots do to sheer laziness) but its been quite a while since I featured Steph in a picture. I had really been wanting to, so i decided today would be the day. Of course…
Day 295 of 365 days. Another day, another photoshoot. But what made this one interesting was that it wasn’t one of my own. Renaissance Woman (top middle) who you will remember from my 5-23-07 shot liked the look of one of my models, Shiima (bottom right) and wanted to use him for a shoot, so…
Day 292 of 365 days. Four, count them, four days in a row without a studio shot. If that’s not some kind of record for me, I don’t know what is. It came to my attention that, what with being wrapped up on the Tarot deck and all, I was basically shooting all chiaroscuro images…
Day 287 of 365 days. Are we noticing a pattern yet for days where I do a photoshoot and don’t have a good idea? I actually had a pretty productive day. Got some photos editted. Finished chemical balancing my pool. And then did a photoshoot with Amaya, a model I met on MM and a…
Day 285 of 365 days. Ever since I’ve been using Model Mayhem I’ve had the chance to interact with more models and photographers that I never would have had the chance to meet on Flickr. Two of them, Merci Rae (Left) and Renaissance Woman (Right) invited me down to see their studio. I am insanely…
Day 282 of 365 days. So there I am, minding my own business, working on a shoot for the tarot project when all of a sudden, my studio was invaded by KGB shock troops who didn’t know the Cold War ended twenty years ago. There was much torture and pressure involved, utilizing a can of…
Day 274 of 365 days. How about street walker for my new career? It seemed to work out tonight. So this morning I shot my friend Jameel for the Tarot deck. He’ll be the Tower card for the major arcana. But I still needed a nice tower background for it. Unfortunately I didn’t really have…
Day 259 of 365 days. Did a photoshoot with Shiima and Mallory today. I got a lot of good shots, including two new tarot cards. Would love to hear people’s thoughts on them just before this in my stream (and some after this probably but maybe not til tomorrow). Shiima is a wrestling friend of…
Day 254 of 365 days. Spent the day with Cheryl. Back before I was a bum (errr… starving artist), I used to be a pretty decent user interface (UI) designer. Cheryl was my intern. Over the years she’s become a really good friend. These days, Cheryl lives in Seattle where she designs video games for…
Day 191 of 365 days. Spent most of the day doing a photoshoot with my friend, the lovely and talented Theresa. I’ve talked before about the difficulty in doing glamour shots of women is convincing the girl to believe she’s sexy, even if you personally know she is. Theresa had never modeled before and took…
Day 170 of 365 days. We’ve had an extremely gentle winter in Pittsburgh so far, but I guess that can’t last forever. The snow has been picking up the last several days, but I hadn’t gotten around to going out there and take a picture til today. Steph looked out the window and saw that…
Day 83 of 365 days. Today was the 8th anniversary of my first date with Steph. We celebrate it as any married couple would celebrate their anniversary. Its just that we never really bothered to get married. We’re quite content to just be living in sin. Really, we’ll fix that any day now. Anyway, we…
Day 40 of 365 days. I can’t believe I’ve been at this for 40 days. I’ve been doing simple snapshots for the last few days, and I decided I wanted to try something a little more ambitious today. This is actually an idea I had for a couple weeks now, but I hadn’t gotten around…
