Enlightened Day

This is a shot that I took yesterday - I love it. Other then my logos and it being resized no other alteration was done to this image - not even color corrections. Yesterday I had just such an enlightened day -- I found all these photographers and their images that I just love - totally inspirational! Much of the work is very much the type that I have liked but then to see it all it kinda inspires me to DO much of what I have been wanting to do and gives me a lil bit of direction to help guide aspects that I like. I also was facing a problem with a few of the art work pieces I have been working on... so I had to put them on hold until I can find a solution that would work the best for them... and it has been a few months but...  I FIGURED IT OUT!  So it was all just very exciting!

Cool Street Art Concept

I've always wanted to do some art with old empty buckets of paint -- I was in Santa Monica and saw this - thought it was a cool idea - It's cut in half and glued or stuck onto a telephone pole.

Today

Today. =) Today I saw myself in a new light as an artist... it was actually an old light =) but maybe the switch had been off for a while and suddenly the light turned on again. Anyway -- I'm just excited to see myself and some of the artwork that I create.... out in the world. =)

Model: "C" (my muse)

I've had some really great models recently, both as model and just as people! =) I was just thinking I should make my own real life sea shell bra (for the model, not for me- dorks!) -- but then do a shoot with them! Oh man... the more I think about it the more I think it would be fun to make! Also I just realized that most ALL my favorite models names start with a C! Kinda ironic....

9-11

I just wanted to remind people to say a lil prayer for the families left behind from 9-11... In someways it has been many years ago, specially for us on the west coast. But to those families what is missing is always before them, and so I just wanted to ask that you remember them in your prayers.

Model: "C" : Guess Jeans Ad

These are two of my favorite shot from the shoot!

While shooting with a model recently we came upon a bunch of deer. I probably saw like 7 and even got a shot with her and the deer in the background.

Location Location Location!!!

Be it Nature or Urban - I just think that locations are so important to a shoot- they can tell a story or just add so much to an image. So I spend a LOT of time traveling around and finding cool and different locations to shoot in. This location I found a while back and have been wanting to shoot there - some artistic nudes and some fashion -- If I can find the time! I passed by it only to see people are beginning to CLEAN it up!!! This happens to me ALL the time - I find a location -shoot once (often a test shoot on my way to a shoot) and WHAM something radically changes the location and the shots that I got - end up to be the ONLY shots. Such is life... always changing -- like they say " You have to seize the day!" So I need to shoot this place soon! =)
