Day 151 of 365 days. What was that I said about moving on to other styles of pictures? I actually really did intend to do something different today. I didn’t have a great idea or anything. I was just going to take one of those day in the life shots that I haven’t done in…

Day 150 of 365 days. 150 days and still going strong. And they said I was crazy. Ok, maybe they didn’t say I was crazy, but when I started this, I certainly thought it was crazy. And like I said before, now I look forward to it every day. 215 days to go, and it’ll…

Day 149 of 365 days. This may be my favorite outfit ever. Why? Because most people probably don’t realize that Osh Kosh Bgosh makes grown-up sized overalls. Well they do, and they’re damned comfortable too. I had a conversation recently about why grown up women are sexy when they dress like little girls. (school girl…

Day 148 of 365 days. I love that modern video games allow people to make themselves and put them in the game. Today, Steph and I went over to Mike and Jill’s house and played the new version of Karaoke Revolution, American Idol. While I don’t think my karaoke video character looks as good as…

Day 147 of 365 days. We interrupt this project for a special public service announcement. Hi, my name is Christopher Maverick. I’m here to talk to you about a very serious problem plaguing this nation. Midget on midget crime. The leading killer amongst men stricken with dwarfism in this country are other men stricken with…

Day 146 of 365 days. Spent this afternoon with my very lovely friend Vanessa doing a photoshoot. There’s a funny thing about doing a photoshoot with a pretty girl. Every girl ever has problems believing they are actually attractive. Even women who know they’re attractive have problems believing it. So after a few years photographing…

Day 145 of 365 days. When I first started this project I had very real concerns as to whether or not I’d be able to hit every single day for a year. I was very much afraid that I would conk out and just stop caring after a week. Now, 145 days in, taking a…

Day 144 of 365 days. Long, long ago, before the TV show My Name is Earl ever came out I learned to believe in Karma. Or as I’ve always called it, the Karma Tornado (from an old Tick comic book). The base theory is basically that if I just kinda zen my way through life…

Day 143 of 365 days. I didn’t have much of an idea for most of the day. I was just in a dark mood. Not really as depressed as this looks, just kind of dark. Mostly I was really tired. Did a lot of reading and took a couple naps. Tomorrow I guess I need…

Day 142 of 365 days. So normally its considered a faux pas to where white after Labor Day. And I’m sure my mother is going yell at me when she see this, But I have an all white tux and I have oh so few occasions to wear it anywhere. Tonight was New Year’s Eve,…

Day 141 of 365 days. Do you know what one of the best parts about living with your girlfriend is. Nope, not the sex. It’s always having someone around to do fun things with. Like yesterday hanging out in the hottub, and today, a rousing game of Trivial Pursuit. Steph and I love Trivial Pursuit.…

Day 140 of 365 days. Well, that’s it. Today was my last day of work, at least full time, on my current contract. What do you do when you’re unemployed? Well me, I come home and spend some nice quality time relaxing in my hottub. Nothing like sitting in 100 degree water and sweating in…

Day 139 of 365 days. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Maverick knows. The creative process is an interesting thing. I actually set out to make a black and white with this shot. I placed my lights so that I’d have nice heavy darks and hard contrast with my backdrop.…

Day 138 of 365 days. I’ve actually had an idea for a cool long exposure, playing with light picture since very early on in this project. Its been written down on my idea white board. This is not it. I don’t want to attempt it until I’m sure I can pull it off exactly the…

Day 137 of 365 days. Today was the last day of Christmas. Where yesterday was spent with family (well, Steph’s family) today was spent with friends. We got together for a Nondenominational Yuletide Winter Holiday Celebration of glogg and champagne drinking and present exchange. If you haven’t had glogg before, I must highly recommend it.…
