This past weekend I got the opportunity to do portraits with Jennifer and Jillian (Miss Cutie Pootie). I took them out to my favorite spot at the moment, which is Bostwick, GA. It was a hot humid day, but a lot of fun. Go to my flickr to see more.
Yesterday I shot the German Bierfest. It was my first freelance assignment with Creative Loafing. So SIKED! The “world’s greatest beer” was available at the 6th Annual German Bierfest at Woodruff Park. Atlantans flocked to the late-summer event with friends, family, and colleagues to enjoy a great glass or two (or five )of German culture. Over 30 different German beers were poured.

Sorry it’s been awhile since I’ve posted, but this quarter (my last quarter) was crazy busy getting everything looking awesome and ready for this one day which was yesterday… the judging! It has been a long ride that I would do again in a heart beat! I wish everyone good luck!!! And yes this is Zack Arias looking at my portfolio, Wow and AHHHHHHH!
So for the past couple of days I have been busy shooting for section E of my portfolio. It’s going to be an illustration of the dirty south and how I see it, things that I come across on a daily bases and things that I have experienced in the past. And no I’m not an alcoholic, it’s just when you live in a small town and everybody knows your names sometimes there aint nothin to do but drink! To check more out click here!
The past weekend I shot the Grimm Reaper in a nearby awesome cornfield. And it might be going into my Section E (specialty). I gotta lot of cool ideas that I can’t wait to set up and shoot for this section. I was going for a southern life photojournalistic style kind of a thing, but it has develop more into an illustration of this life style, so my specialty is going to be Illustrative Photography. Can’t wait to be done with all this and see my images printed and hung!
My sister recently got a tattoo and I had to take a picture of it, because I thought it was beautiful and meaningful to me, to us. But on another note I also took this picture to take to the tattoo artist and see if He likes the image and perhaps help him get some business with my picture and He can pay me in return, well we’ll see how it goes. I just thought it would be a cool idea to get a little side money! Anyway to check more out click here!
This past weekend I decided instead of looking for somewhere cool to shoot I would just hit up my backyard and shoot my now empty pool. I asked myself who would I find in a pool like this and it hit me, probably a redneck! So I shot it. I’m going to use it for the next assignment in Portfolio Development (section A). And I’m still working hard to fine my specialized study. This quarter is definitely keeping me own my toes. To see more click here!
So far this summer has been bittersweet. I have a pool, but can’t jump in it. It is summer, but I’m in school. It’s my last quarter of school, but it’s my last quarter of school with all these great people. I recently got engaged, but my Mom’s not here to enjoy it. I have learned that this is life, but with the sad or pain comes the happy. I’m looking forward to my bittersweet summer and what it has to bring, cause at the end of summer I’m going to be proud of what I and my peers have accomplished!
Oh and this is my brain this summer!
I’ve been a member of jpgmag.com for a couple of months now and just found out that one of my photos that I submitted for the Creep theme is HOT! which means that it has a possibility of being picked for the next issue. So if you think that this image makes you want to go hide behind a tree go vote for it! I think you have to be a member to vote, but it’s a free site like Flickr where tons of people can view your work and tell you what they think, except you have a chance at getting published. You also get to see some amazing work from other photographers. If this is scary you should click here!
