Got to work with a new model on Sunday. And I couldn’t be happier. I think Mandie and I had great chemistry together, and I can’t wait to work with her again.
More to come.

Day 545 of 365 More. Spent a nice relaxing evening with Steph tonight. We went to dinner. Went shoe shopping. And then came home and watched bad television. What could be more fun than that. That said, after she went to bed, I did watch a comedy special, My Buddy Bill, comedy writer Rick Cleveland’s…

Day 544 of 365 More. I had two photoshop heavy days in a row and I just didn’t have the energy left to do a third,so today it was back to just nice, good old-fashioned well lit studio portrait photography. It’s good to have something nice to fall back on. That said if you didn’t…

A couple weeks ago, Tate Nations, master of skateboard photography, was nice enough to do a tutorial for the 365 Podcast which I cohost. During the same episode, I did a tutorial on shooting high contrast black and whites. Tate said he’d try my technique if I’d try some of his. So this weekend, I…

Day 539 of 365 More. One of the nice things about my life is having my own hottub. Anytime I’m feeling worn out, or my joints are feeling stiff or for whatever reason, I’m just too stressed out, all I have to do is come home, go on my back porch and jump in. That’s…

Six of Cups
by mav • • 10 Comments
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 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 526 of 365 More. And I’m done. It’s about time. Had the show at Creative Treehouse. I had said ahead of time that if I sold one print I would consider it a success. I sold four! So, I guess that’s 400% of my expectations. So woohoo! Of course I spent far more on…

Day 524 of 365 More. I had this really great idea for the 365 Podcast. I wanted to do a tutorial on creating well toned black and white pictures. Easy enough to do, film myself taking today’s self portrait, while narrating, then just use some screen recording software to record myself processing it in photoshop.…

Day 520 of 365 More. So I slept in today. Anyone who has been paying attention the last couple weeks probably knows that I seriously needed it. I woke up to hear hammer and dropping things and cursing and came downstairs to discover Steph putting together the new bookshelf that we bought the other day.…

Day 519 of 365 More. Well, I guess I’m done. Was supposed to have two different photoshoots this weekend, both of which I was going to include in the Black and Lights show. Both were cancelled for different reasons. It’s probably fine. I ended up spending over $200 on prints, and I’m pretty happy with…

Day 516 of 365 More. I’m catching up. I finally finished editing the Jameel and Stu pics for the Black and Light project. Tomorrow, I’ll hopefully get a few Tarot cards posted, and then I’ve got some more shooting to do this weekend. Still don’t have a tutorial for this weeks podcast and unless I…
