I've been around

I took a little stroll the other day and took a few shots around the lofts. Nothing too amazing, but it got me outside and shooting (neither of which I do enough of).

brick wall

power lines

more of the same

that's where I stay

just some sort of cool pipe

I want to do a shoot down there and get a light behind that glass wall

Hair A Go*Go behind the scenes

Here's a few behind the scenes pictures from a recent shoot I assisted on for Hair A Go*Go in Chattanooga. Everybody was super nice and Chattanooga is a pretty cool town.

Sorry for the lack of updates lately, I've been moving. Hopefully, I'll be setting up a dark room in the near future. I enjoy shooting film.

Fun with a magnifying sheet

So I found this magnifying sheet at my parent's house the other day and thought I'd experiment with it. It was pretty fun, but I need to try to figure out if there is a way to keep the light from reflecting off of it. I think I'll end up doing an ongoing series with it. Maybe I'll take it to all of my shoots and snag a couple of frames at the end.

“Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.” -- Anthony Robbins

New Camera

So, this is my new camera. I can't wait to try it out!
I think one of my favorite things about this camera as of right now (seeing as I haven't been able to shoot with it yet) is that you can, and should, take it all apart! Yes, I was that kid growing up. But I did know my boundaries and only disassembled things that belonged to me; though I can't promise I wasn't tempted to operate on our television...
I'm off to order film now.
Film will teach you patience...
