King of Cups

King of Cups

Still adding to the male tarot cards. I did so many female ones in a row that now I’m having to do a bunch of males to catch up. Wayne was one of the earliest people I cast for the project, but like so many others, it took me a while to get to him. No matter, I’m quite happy with the results.

Day 538 of 365 More. My weekly poker game had been on hiatus since Christmas. Today we started back up. In some ways I almost wish we hadn’t. I wasn’t doing great, but i had ace/nine with an ace on the board and decided to go all in. Everyone folded except one person. Steph of…

Six of Cups

Six of Cups

I’ve been trying to catch up with the male tarot cards lately, so I’ve done a few shoots of guys.

This one is Marcel on the Six of Cups. All of my sixes have the modern equivalent of suit item. It took me a long time to figure out what a modern cup would be, as drinking technology hasn’t really changed much over the last couple hundred years. But then my friend Katy recommended a simple disposable plastic cup and I knew that was perfect. I had wanted to do a street musician picture anyway, and I like how the saxophone kind of slightly mirrors the cup idea.

Day 537 of 365 More. And now, my sleep schedule is all screwed up. I decided to do that Kevin Smith movie extra gig. My call was 8am, and I didn’t want to be late, so for the first time in ages, I went to sleep early. Around 4am Steph woke me up. The wind…

Day 535 of 365 More. Fun fact. I hate the ipod earbuds. Somehow, it became a minor pop-culture status symbol to have trademark white ear buds in your ears once the iPod became popular, but I find them hella uncomfortable. They hurt my ears, and they don’t even stay in all that well. Give me…

Day 534 of 365 More. How’s this for evil? After I recovered from yesterday’s beating, Steph made me clean up my own blood. She’s evil like that. Also did a lot of cleaning in the studio as a whole. It was getting so crowded and messy in there it was hard to work. Now its…

Day 533 of 365 More. People often ask me how Steph feels about me having a constant parade of naked and half naked women running in and out of my studio. Well, this might answer things for you. When Amaya was here last week she left some of her stuff. Her bra and panties, and…

Day 532 of 365 More. Closing time – time for you to go out, go out into the world. Closing time – turn the lights up over every boy and every girl. Closing time – one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer. Closing time – you don’t have to go home…

Day 531 of 365 More. The day started off long and bad. Really, its not tons better. But I don’t want to get into details. Suffice it to say, I’m trying to put the badness behind me. I am once again attempting to put together a tutorial for the podcast on black and whites. I…

Day 530 of 365 More. I have these days when I get really down on myself. Where I start thinking about this whole "being an aritst" thing and start wanting to reexamine my life. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that I want to quit. Really I have no interest in that. And I’m not…

Day 529 of 365 More. I love when I come home and there is a package from Amazon. It’s like Christmas. Today I came home to discover that the mailman had brought my Batman and Spiderman training manuals. Just what I need to continue my journey to becoming a superhero. Lessons on crafting your costume,…

And here’s the end of the Amaya/Sarah lapdance photos. I’m quite pleased with how the whole thing turned out, and I thank both girls for shooting it with me. Their chemistry was great and I’m quite pleased with how it turned out. They really are my favorites and I can’t wait to work with them again.
