Portfolio In The Making

So, now that I'm gettin close to the end of my 8 quarter program I am building up my portfolio. I recently shot my good friend Alison for a portrait. I really loved her hair and build so I wanted to accent those features. I used a boom to hang a light over her gorgeous hair and hit the background with a light to give her a little spotlight. I think the portrait came out pretty well, although I did plan a re-shoot. I think my next concept will be even better muahahahahah!!!

Back in the Blog Game

So after taking a little hiatus from the blog I am now dedicated to keeping my online presence hot. Work has been awesome. I will be posting some new work, new site, and new graphics within the month. As for school I am currently checking out different portfolio cases and sizes to check out. 13 X 19 is lookin pretty dang good if you ask me. Each size and each paper seems to have its trade offs but I think I may have found exactly what I want. Check it out:

This will be the case that harness my work. It's actually pretty versatile since I can also fit a portfolio book in it. The options are endless.

Snow....And Lots Of It

 Woot woot - snow days. I'm definitely ready to head back to my job and school to get some work done, but the few extra vacation days were nice. I got a lot of time to get my portfolio stuff together as well as add a few things. I also had some time to get some new equipment lined up and some new shoots.It did suck not being able to drive anywhere....well I could have but I would have had to deal with roads like this...

But walking around was pretty rad. I got some cool shots. I was diggin this church.

But walking around also made me realize this snow has got to go. So, me and my dad just began incinerating everything in our paths with this makeshift flamethrower.

Jk - but we did burn a lot of stuff. So there you have it. My past few days were full of being incredibly bored and trying to kill time taking pictures, reading about taking pictures, making layouts and stuffing my face with mass amounts of food. Oh ya - I also busted my ass about a hundred times.
