Long Time No See!

Saddest Wedding Ever by ~CGodfrey on deviantART

I've been ramping up lately. I've been getting booked pretty reliably lately, which is good.

Updates on the way!

Job hunting is taking the majority of my life right now, and I've had no time for photography. It sucks when its only a hobby, and not a career, but I'm trying to fix that.

Buckling Down

Not a whole of photography happening in the previous week, well, none worth sharing.

Starting today, I started the Nightmare on Elm's Street marathon to get up to speed for the new one coming out this Friday.

I've started working a lot, and if my math is right (and it so rarely is), then I shall have enough cash for LA in the fall, which is still my top priority in life. I found the path to LA leads through Vegas, which is a mandatory stop, and a mandatory cash sink. Black jack much?

Anyway, onto the photo of the week.

It's not new, but its newish, it's fan favorite Ryan! And I have no clue what he was screaming at, or why he was so unhappy, but I expect that Sobe might have been spiked (by clearly not me). While I wouldn't call this one of my best shots, it makes me giggle, so I am sharing it, and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Life Sucks.

So paying back student loans is fun, right? Wrong. Just ask my cosigners.

That said, I'm getting insanely excited about the potential LA relocation. I've decided to pick up a couple extra gigs over the summer to raise funds so that I can easily pay the student loans back for a couple months (just in case I can't find work out there).

I've decided that the trip will be a rebirth of sorts. A fresh start. Columbus hasn't been particularly kind to me, a couple cases of almost-work, a couple situations of unrequited, unwanted or unhealthy love, and a whole mountain of debt. It did get me out of God-Knows-Where Ohio, though, and to that, I am extremely glad.

So for the next couple of months, I will probably not be very active in the world, I'll be working. A lot.

New Work, also new look on this page (still trying to learn HTML so this page will look as I please):

April!?

So I've been going back and forth a lot lately about some major relocation, either I stay, and try to continue fighting for nothing in Columbus, or I take a shot and move somewhere else, and try to fight for nothing in more fertile grounds. A couple friends of mine are heading to LA in the fall, and I think I might just take that opportunity to leave Ohio and live out west, and see what life brings me. I'm still looking for meaningful work in the meantime, but if nothing comes of fruition by August, I'm out yo.

So with that in mind; the weather has been breaking, and I work and live in a basement, so I'm taking every chance I have to get out and explore parts of Columbus I've never explored. I've found some shots I've really liked, and taken some portraits I've been pretty okay with. That brings me to the photo of the however-long-its-been-since-I-last-updated-and-will-update-again!

It's potentially my new home.

Life times are fun times!

I've been busy lately, kind of.
I slowed WAY down on art, like, to a stand still.
Why? Because I've been trying to get my shit together. I've spent the first two months of the year in the a drunken and unhappy haze, and I spent the time since (since mid Feb) trying to get back to my old levels. Everything is peachy keen, now, so no worries.

That being said, my internship is now over, it was equal parts awesome, informative and disappointing, but we won't go into that, and it goes straight to the resumé. I started pinching together cash for some props and equipment, which will start to show up in my images pretty soon. Until then, its all Goodwill.

Anyway, onto the latest of my nine million self portraits. I've been trying to let my imagination go and have fun with shots (just wait for the robot images!), so here comes Mr. No Face Guy! It's really more of a test shot, than anything, I just wanted to see how it would work, its missing a few small details, I think I'll pop the color the real one, and it definitely would look cooler with a cigarette in his mouth (I'm thinking either a cigarello or a black and mild, regular cigs look plain).

On a side note: I've been watching the show V, and I gotta say, it's pretty cool. Can I get some Lizard People Conspiracy theories now?

Not a lot to update; I've been running around trying to find some material to shoot (I've really been fond of doing some still life stuff recently), I found this really cool looking jar of honey, and I think I'm going to do some things with that. I've been trying to bring extra things in, such as various gels, back drops, etc, to really take my photos to the next level.

I'm really tired of being at student/amateur level, ya know?
