Back home

My trip to St. Louis (well actually Eureka) was great. I had so much fun and was greatly encouraged. Funky's family are the most generous, hospitable bunch you might ever know.

I will be uploading the photos to my photo blog soon, so keep an eye out for that.

Now that I'm back home I'm ready to get busy. I need to save money for better camera equipment. So I need more photo jobs. I'm working with Cory (Better Way Screen Printing) to offer some sweet band package deals (shirts, buttons, patches and promo shots, for one low price)

So if you need some photography, or screen printing done, hit me up.

Happenings

Man. It's been a week since I had posted on this blog. I WAS on a roll.
Oh well, this coming week is gonna be insane. The St. Louie trip.
I'm a bit nervous still, but now that I have made all my decisions I am a lot more comfortable.

I'm a little discouraged by the lack of comments on my first illustrated writing. I was so excited, I posted it here, on facebook and twittered about it. I think i even sent out a mass email and I've hardly received any feedback. Maybe it wasn't as funny as I thought it was.
Oh well. I'll keep trying, though I never seem to have time to write.

I know this is probably something to post on my photo blog but I think I decided I want to start taking more art photos and entering them into art shows. I'm thinking of entering my roach picture (the background of this blog) in the next momentum show.

Since this blog post has been real boring, I will leave you with this, for your entertainment:

Dragons

The very first of my writings to ever be illustrated! Thanks to the amazing Sarah Cade.
I know the font is dumb. But we talked about working on it more so I wasn't going to spend a lot of time making the words look nice.

I was too excited to upload it.

South Park Me

Hey look it's me as a south park character... kind of.

...Don't you hate it when you can't think of anything to blog about? haha.

I have great friends

My good friend Christan of Art of Living Studios and her husband Eric, owner of Artbeat, are going to let me borrow their truck to go to St. Louis to shoot my friend Funky's wedding.

oh st. louis

I guess I should have prefaced this by saying, my friend Funky asked me to shoot his wedding. I am so honored, being specifically asked by another photographer to do his wedding. I will also finally get to meet his soon to be wife Liyah. I will be shooting with a photographer Funky introduced me to, Pam Eder, her stuff is really good. I am very excited, and very, very nervous.

Liyah & Funky

Christan is also letting me borrow a sweet camera lens she got, it's a macro 100mm with a 2.8 f-stop . I had the opportunity to use it at a wedding we shot together a week or so ago. It is really handy, I used it for shots from the balcony during the ceremony. You can see the shots I took when I upload them to my photography blog in a week or so.

I should also mention, Cory & Vanessa Castoe are the amazing people that let me live at their house. They are going to be getting me on their phone plan, which will be saving me a whole lot of money. They are always doing things for me. I love them. Alot.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg on how awesome my friends are.
