2 days away...

I feel like I have been studying for the big final for the past few months. In 2 days I will be shooting my first wedding. I will be the only photographer. No 2nd shooter, no backup, no safety net. I feel lucky that the bride and groom have enough confidence in me to allow me to shoot their wedding. I'm sure it will be a full 10 hour day of learning experiences that will make me better for the next bride that chooses me. If there is a next time. I kind of feel like if I "flunk" this that will be it. That might be a bad way of thinking about it but I don't plan on "flunking" but like any artist or professional you have standards that you hold your self up too and if you don't reach them you failed. I'm sure what I expect out of me is more that what a client does but that doesn't mean I can ease up. Going to be a big exciting day.

Stay-Cation

We are going on a staycation this weekend. We I meen Sarah and myself. Sarah would be that significant other of mine. We have kind of been stuck in the house for the past 3 weeks due to her possibly gull bladder pain and she wanted to get out and do something. We don't really want to go too far just in case something should happen so staycation is the thing to do. It is also nice to check out the resorts we have around the city. Why should the tourists get to have all the fun.

This past week I did a product shoot for a t-shirt line from Draft House Studios. Overall it turned out ok but I see areas that can be improved on.

The Tattoo and the Artist

I am a big fan of tattoos and tattoo artists. This is Chip at Club Tattoo in Mesa, AZ tattooing my sisters stomach.

Chip is an awesome tattoo artist and he has a groovy mustache.

If you ever thought you might want a stippled tattoo, Chip has it down.

Wolfpack Football

2 Weeks ago I did team photos for Wolfpack Football. I had put a ad on Craigslist and that is how the team mom found me. Photos were delivered Thursday. The area where the photos took place wasn't the most ideal location but we made it work. I used a little different lighting set up than I did for the first team photos i did. Still not sure which I liked best. I used a umbrella list time where as last time I used bare flash. Both worked but not sure which look I liked best. Guess that's what practicing is for.

The Plan

New Goal. Even though I'm sure I currently don't have any followers, my goal is to blog at least once a week. It may just be about what I had for breakfast or maybe a photography experience. Either way it will be a blog post.
