Health starting to take a turn for the better. Knock on wood! I would like to get back into this again and I’ve been feeling the itch for the past 2 weeks....... soon I hope.....

So Facebook tells me I have 83 people who like this page and i haven't interacted with them in 37 days! In that case allow me to give you an update on what I'm shooting for, for the 2016 fiscal year! I will continue booking weddings, engagement photos, and whatever else may be needed, but with my mind finally back on track and a new drive I am going to be getting back into artistic shoots. There are a few new techniques I would like to try out and new ways Id like to try finishing my photos on canvas. So i will be going in that direction as I haven't shot for me in such a long time. Money is good to make from your photo work but it isn't everything to me. I miss working outside of the lines and seeing what happens. I will also be taking any time to start working on the new studio space when it isn't -5 in the photo room to be. So until Facebook yells at me again for being a sad advertiser, thats all for now! And as always on a real note thank you for your continued interest in my business and support!

New photo studio still on hold. Fish tank has taken precedence over it. Good news is that its the next project on the list. I could use it as is now if it was 29 degrees outside. Insulation is the first must. Stay Tuned!

Even though the new studio isn't done being built yet i figured i would start laying the ground work now. If anyone is a makeup artist or knows one and are looking to expand or start your portfolio, feel free to send me a private message. I am starting to recruit so we can get the formal things out of the way so we can hit the ground running when its finally completed. Have a great week!

Pano of the future studio. Cannot wait to start working on this room! After the drywall is done I will be painting the whole room black. This is because for as big as the room is, any other color would throw its color cast into whatever it is being photographed and it can't be white as it'll bounce light from the flash everywhere and blow all the photos out...

Drywall being moved into the new studio space. Need to install drywall electrical outlets and insulation. Hope to be done in the next few months!

Making changes to my studio, my work, and myself. I'm gonna try this one more time and instead of giving up when work and success start to pick up, I'm going to embrace it and take it as far as it wants to bring me. Ive grown up a lot artistically during the past year and i want to put my work in art shows again and see if what happened with my first piece was a fluke or if there is really something there. And the only way to make this happen is to get very serious about it. Those who want to help me better my craft are more than welcome to come along and offer advice. And those who hold me back im going to have to break ties with you because ive wasted a majority of my life listening to what other people say they think is "right" or "normal" or "know" what people consider good art. Im gonna do my thing, and im gonna do it my way on my terms. Once this studio gets up and running in the next few months i will begin and go all out. This includes actual set pieces. Faux sets made out of wooden frames and drywall, windows, doors, dividers, ect, ect. Weddings have been fun but I have let money get in the way of what drew me to photography in the first place. Ill still be doing weddings but I have to get back in touch with my roots. Only then whether I succeed or fail miserably, I can honestly tell myself "I tried"...

My latest and greatest photo I feel I've done in awhile! This is VERY sharp and in your face! Definitely starting to settle back into the swing of things! Thank you for supporting me and forcing me to confront my possible talents all over again! Couldn't have done it without your support! ;) And we are just getting started! Now time for some fresh shoots and edits!!!

Some more fiddling around with photoshop to get back into the groove of things.

05/05/2015

So after not having done one of these in a few years I dusted off the ole tablet and started from scratch to see if i remember how to do this since i never wrote it down. The result? I think this came out better than the original! A big thank you to my support system for motivating me to get back into it! You know who u are ;) Time to brush off the Nikons, break them free from weddings and get back to shooting for art again! Lets see what 2015 has in store!
