What's on my mind.

So I guess this blog is not going to be all about photography, I am going to talk about my life since it is a blog and portfolio. I have recently moved most of my articles to this site since a few of my friends are on it, and it's easier to update. My old blog was here (it's mostly the same as this one). I tend to rant on about my life so if you like to listen, keep reading. We have been getting alot of requests from models to shoot with us. I have been trying to plan it out and shoot everyone but I don't think I have time to capture everyone's beauty. So I have to narrow some people down and choose who to shoot with. (I shouldn't of sent some messages to them). Summer time is about to end and we can shoot about 10 more models before mid-aug in which I am probably going to memphis to decide where to go next. I am probably thinking of moving back to California during the Fall, I need to actually find a job that pays, can't keep doing everything for free, but who knows, I wish I was like Eric on Entourage and have it made by having a friend like Vince. Well, it's time to end this post. I'll update more later.

life is good,

New Photography: Taking Pictures

I first started in digital with a rented SLR but I got my own after the Fall Garden series and then started taking better pictures with my fantastic plastic (50mm f/1.7). If I had some money, I would invest in some better lens like some good primes like the 85mm f/1.2 or a 135mm f/2 and shoot better pictures. It's a good thing I still do alot of experimenting with my pictures because I have not really adapted a style yet to take pictures, so every shoot I do is different. I guess I tend to "steal other photographers techniques" to learn from them. It is until I find something that is suited for me, then I'll adapt it to myself. In the meantime, take a look at a friend of mine who talks about photography.
