The Ditty Bops

Went and shot The Ditty Bops last night. The cool thing about this concert was that no writer signed on, so the website told me I could either bring along a friend to write an article or I could write one myself. Since I really didn’t want to have to worry about the writing [...]

Evolution

Yesterday before I got up for work, I had a dream that I called them up and told them I was going to come in an hour late so I could sleep longer, and they were totally cool with it. It’s amazing, the alarm clock-ignoring defense mechanisms my body has developed over the years.
Incredibly, I [...]

Whoops

My mom got married today and I forgot to call her. Sorry, mom!
In my defense, she’s been with the guy for most of my life, so it’s not like anything’s really changed. Now there’s a piece of paper that says they’re together. But uhh, sorry mom!

Found this in the “creative gigs” section of Craigslist. It’s…creative, I’ll give him that.

Fucking Apple and Their Fucking Mouse

There’s tons of published content online complaining about the shortcomings of Apple’s “Mighty Mouse,” I mean, just look at the reviews on the Apple Store and you’ll know what I’m talking about, but I have to bitch a little bit.
Nina owns a Mac onto which I’ve installed Windows, and though we swapped back and forth [...]

Resolution Mid-year Review

We’ve hit six months since I posted my attempt at setting New Year’s resolutions, so how am I doing?
Get back to listening to music: Not so much. Now that I’m shooting concerts for Melophobe, I’ll be seeing more live music, but my iPod has mostly been relegated to photography podcasts and the occasional Beatles album [...]

Shinfo: A Look at My BlackBerry’s Custom Dictionary

My phone keeps a dictionary onboard of words I type on it (texts, emails, instant messages) that it doesn’t know. The list is all over the place, and pretty funny out of context. Here’s a sample of highlights.

Comic Genius

After the shoot tonight, both Nina and I realized that we hadn’t eaten all day (it was 9PM by this point) and were feeling lazy, so we headed to Subway to grab a sandwich. Inside the restaurant’s dining area, there was an enormous box running along one wall for the length of it, and the [...]

Musician Shoot

I just got finished with a three hour shoot with Catherine Feeny, a musician that recently posted an ad on Craigslist looking for photographers in anticipation of the release of her third album. She chose three photographers out of the barrage of responses she received, and I was lucky enough to be one of them. [...]
