So... This Deviant art thing isn't working out like I had wanted.  Honestly I haven't bee shooting much so there hasn't been much to post.  In May I actually shot a lot.  I did a group shoot in Springfield MA with FNS, I did a group shoot in Windsor CT and I did a one on one shoot with Chelsea Christian.  Over all I felt good about the shoots.  I think I did good at the group shoots and I think I did really good with Chelsea.  Problem is that I don't really know. It took me a while to finish editing the first group shoot.  I did them and sent them out and it doesn't really seem any of the women liked what I sent out.  I asked them to let me

About a month ago my Imac's hard drive was starting to get full.  I am a bit of a file hoarder, I don't throw many pictures out, I keep them even though I will never use them.  A great example of this is from my Self portrait project.  If I am doing something with studio lighting I will often take a picture of a piece of PVC pipe that is about as tall as I am.  it gives me a point to focus on and judge the light before I set the timer and walk out in front of the camera.  There are probably hundreds of pictures of that PVC pipe on my hard drive.  So instead of deleting things I got a 2TB external hard drive.  Because I got that drive I decide

So, I have been here on Deviant art for a while and I really haven't been posting much.  When I signed up for this it kinda matched up with a time when I lost inspiration to shoot.  I love photography, it has permeated a lot of my life and influenced who I am.  The truth is though that my photography is greatly influenced by my mood and where I am in life and as of late that has been not great.  For the longest time I have been struggling with who I am, where I am going and what I want.  These things have nothing to do with photography but when you loose track of your vision it is hard to create meaningful imagery.  I have been in a bad place
