Day 268 of 365 days. Argggh…. I just noticed I’ve been numbering all of my days incorrectly since Day 247. So my “only 100 days left” post was wrong. I have even fewer than I thought. *sigh* now I have to go through and retag everything. Steph was nice enough to accompany me to Middleofnowhere,…
Day 199 of 365 days. There was actually a lot I wanted to get around to doing today. Working on some photo editting. Working on my paper for the conference. Playing some quality video games. Didn’t really get to any of that. Instead, I spent the day doing phone interviews for a couple different jobs.…
Day 198 of 365 days. A black man, a white man, a filipino man and a japanese man walk into a porn store… That’s not really a dirty joke. But it is the end to my very long day. Got up early to drive to a wrestling show 4 hours away with fellow wrestlers, Sterling…
Did a photo shoot with my nine month pregnant friend Gina the other day. I haven’t edited most of the photos yet (I’m still working on editing the pics from the shoot before it) but I wanted to use this one for Class with Dave.
Anyway, Gina wanted nice artsy pictures of herself while pregnant. And since the baby is due any day now, it seemed like we should get them done sooner rather than later.
The class with Dave assignment was to create a backlit silhouette. And Gina wanted one anyway, it all worked out perfectly.
Day 171 of 365 days. Today, I went to my pregnant friend Gina’s house to help her make a plaster cast of her torso so that she can remember what she looked like while pregnant forever and ever. I guess its something pregnant women do these days. Even though I took pictures of the process…
Day 168 of 365 days. Some days I just don’t feel like getting out of bed. Today was one of them. One of the nice things about this whole unemployment experience is that it gives me a break from my career. For the record I hate computers. I hate the computer industry. I hate working…
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…
Day 147 of 365 days. We interrupt this project for a special public service announcement. Hi, my name is Christopher Maverick. I’m here to talk to you about a very serious problem plaguing this nation. Midget on midget crime. The leading killer amongst men stricken with dwarfism in this country are other men stricken with…
Day 139 of 365 days. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Maverick knows. The creative process is an interesting thing. I actually set out to make a black and white with this shot. I placed my lights so that I’d have nice heavy darks and hard contrast with my backdrop.…
Day 107 of 365 days. I’ve been doing a lot of day in the life shots lately. In fact, in the last few days I’ve done two shots of me eating. I actually considered doing a shot of me installing Steph’s new car stereo. I took one shot, didn’t like it, and decided that I…
Day 97 of 365 days. Another day where I didn’t really have a strong idea in mind and decided to just go down to the studio and see what struck me. I’m actually beginning to kind of like those kinds of shots. I go downstairs and look around and see if I get any bolts…
Day 85 of 365 days. If yesterday’s picture was all about black, then today’s picture is all about white. I wanted to try something different than what I normally do. It’s an interesting effect and one that I might want to play with more at some point, but I don’t know that its for pictures…
Day 69 of 365 days. Back to black and white. It was storming outside since this afternoon. And I thought GREAT! Because I keep wanting to get a good pic taken in a storm. unfortunately, by the time I got home from work it had both slowed up and was too dark to really get…
