Day 775 of 365 Again. I still hate strobes, but like I said last week they definitely have their uses. Most importantly, portability. I’m going to be doing some traveling for photoshoots soon and taking my big lights is kind of a pain in the ass. Same would true of studio class strobes actually, but…

Day 774 of 365 Again. I’ve never really liked watermarks on images. I don’t like watermarks and I don’t like digital borders on photos. I tend to put a lot of thought into the composition of every photo I take and I always felt like blasting my name across it kind of ruined something. That…

Virginia and Nelson have been bugging me to process this picture since I took it. I can’t really complain, it was like a month ago. But I’ve been busy. Anyway, I wasn’t sure at first but after spending some time editing it, I love it.

Day 772 of 365 Again. First of all, I guess, apologies to anyone who reads this over the RSS feed instead of on flickr.

Day 771 of 365 Again. It was my intention to start my new project today. Actually, it was my intention to start it back on Wednesday. But once again, I had models cancel on me. Two shoots scheduled and neither happened. That said, at least they had valid excuses. Most times people just stand me…

Day 769 of 365 Again. So today was Mikey’s last day of 2 consecutive years of 365. A milestone that very few people ever achieve. A bunch of people did jumping shot tributes to Mikey. Not my style. At least not today. However, Mikey and I were talking about photography books the other day, and…

Day 768 of 365 Again. Ever had a day just get away from you? That how I feel about today. I know I went to work. I know I was supposed to have a photoshoot that didn’t happen. I know I spent the entire evening wroking on the new Cosmic Hellcats (which I think is…

Day 767 of 365 Again. I’ve always hated flash photography. In truth, I still do. I have this little Canon Speedlite 430EX that I use in emergencies, but in general I’d much rather use my hot lights or the good old fashioned sun. The warmness of the light just suits me so much better. But…

Day 766 of 365 Again. Stephen finally got the new podcast done. I just finished watching it. This was a show that I had bee really looking forward to. It’s chocked full of guests and we discuss the meaning behind the project at length, so go check it out. Today’s photo is brought to you…
