I’ve been continuing to use my time on unemployment to work on my photography. My friend Nicki was nice enough to stop by and model for me. I did my best to make her look like a Maxim covergirl. Luckily half the job was done just by her walking in the door.

Day 154 of 365 days. Weird thing about the way we treat ourselves. I’ve been trying really hard to whip myself into shape. If I made a New Year’s resolution that’s probably it. I’ve been working out every day, trying to dump about 13 pounds (I’m down 8 since Jan. 1). I’ve also sort of…

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 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 121 of 365 days. Back to basics. I haven’t done a good sitting in shadows picture in a couple weeks, so I decided it was about time. Actually I decided yesterday, but I didn’t have the time to devote to it til today. It started out being a pretty good day, actually. Slept in,…

Day 110 of 365 days. Today, I am 30% of the way through this project. In some ways it feels like I just started and in other ways it feels like I’ve always been doing this. Wanted to play with something different today, so I opted to see what I could do with my new…

Day 108 of 365 days. The superlong weekend is over and its back to business as usual. I have entered what can only be considered the lameduck phase at work. I only have about one month left on my contract and then its back to the unemployment line. The unemployment doesn’t really scare me. If…

Day 84 of 365 days. If I titled my 365 days photos with anything other than just the date, I’d probably call this one Cloak of Darkness or something like that. Didn’t really have any grand ideas for today (unlike yesterday’s Kiss photo, which I had actually come up with a couple weeks ago, but…
