Video: I think I likeeeeee

Just put together a "video movie" of some models I photographed. This project came from boredom and creativity...been kicking the idea around after seeing vids from modeling agencies/photogs. Finally decided to try my hand at editing, etc. The results can be seen to your right in the youtube section. Let me know what you think.

All that and a bag of...

Today has been a typical day of running errands and being mentally numb. I just finished answering emails which is what I'm basing this post on.

I open this email that has about twenty photos attached (including a shot of the models baby) which is great. The text in the email talks about wanting to work with me, etc. Very nice but not very clear what she really wants from me. I email back asking her if she is wanting to hire me and my team. She replies that she basically wants free pics...hello!!!! Unless you are a Kate Moss, Candice Swanepoel or Amber Everett...I has to gets paid!!!

I replied politely that as much as I'd love to photograph people for free that this was my business. I have to make money to live as do the people that are on my team.

Sometimes I wonder if people realize that I have to pay bills too lol.

Anyway, just found out my oldest sister is in the hospital with blockage in the front of her heart. May be making a trip to Ky depending..holding good thoughts and prayers for her.

I'm feeling sick today...































Sunday I had a shoot outdoors all day. It had been raining and kind of cool. Was outside for about 9 hours mainly on the ground.






















Shot with 6 models preparing them for an expo in Dallas. Got some good stuff so they should be set.






















As soon as it was over and I was driving away, the rain came again. Went for chinese food after but couldn't eat it all..barely ate any.






















Monday was an agency shoot and I spent some time again outside. This time it was raining and I was wet. Today I think it's caught up with me. Just feel sick to my stomach and very tired. I just wanna roll up in a ball and sleep...now I just started sneezing.






















Today has been the usual with me leaving the house about 9 am and running errands. Nothing to eventful today..just trying to book shoots and pay bills.






















I miss NYC so bad. I need to go there soon..random thought as I sit in a Wendy's dining area finishing my lunch.






















Started working on some portaiture stuff the other day. I shoot fashion mainly but am wanting to get into celebrity portraits eventually...if I can figure how to post some I will.
