New York, New York... Again? Yup.

On my way back to New York again to spend the week shooting a good number of jobs with Anastasiia who graciously put a lot of time and effort into booking me an entire week of nothing but Photo jobs all around the city. She is something else! So, I need to get some sleep, because I leave out in a few hours. Pray for us while we endure this week of hard, but awesome work. That Christ can move through us and we can be effective not only in the work produced through photography but that some how some lives can be changed because of love we have for them and love we have for what we do. God has kept me moving in the non-stop life I've had since the beginning of July and I am praying that as the year is coming to an end, it ends with Joy and Peace to ready myself for a new year to really jump into an endless ocean known as Photography. Thank you for your support :).

Rebecca & Megan Lovell Promos.

Recently I shot with Rebecca and Megan Lovell of The Lovell Sisters, for their new project. I felt really honored that they wanted to go with me for their project, they are truly talented girls with amazing hearts. I cannot wait to see where they head in the music industry. Also thanks to my friend Jessica who came out to help me shoot these two on the such short notice, much appreciated. Go ahead and check out their music they have up on The Lovell Sister's myspace: www.myspace.com/thelovellsisters. Also, I am stoked to announce that I'll be shooting their oldest sister Jessica's Wedding on New Years Eve. It is going to be a blast to work with these girls again along with the rest of their family and bring in the new year with a good ol' hitchin'!. I'll be posting more of the photos soon, but for now check out the Flickr for those that I have posted.

Operation: WORKFLOW

So the word "Operation" may be a little on the exaggerated side, but only to get me serious about my workflow. After spending a lot of time having WORKFLOW WORKFLOW WORKFLOW being hammered into my skull, I have been trying to prepare myself and my future business to have a tight and steady flow A.K.A. A Flowing River Named Work A.K.A. WORKFLOW!

Now I'm not just talking about how to edit my images quickly and efficiently. That would be known as, just use Lightroom and more so pointed towards wedding photography or just sorting through a days worth of images, and even that you could resort back down to Bridge. No, I am really speaking about business workflow. Finally getting my website up (but one I love and works the most efficient), new blog, better and more efficient storage for my images, get everything set with the new Accountant and Bookkeeper (highly recommended by a very very reliable source), more efficient workspace, freeing up hard drives, setting up shoots for the new portfolio in some special locations ;), and finishing albums, example books, comp cards, etc. etc. etc. Much stuff to do, but things that are very essential to getting out there. So, hur weh go!

Hey, I'm 21 Now. Whoop! Whoop!

So yeah, I turned 21 this past Saturday. We had a little party and as you can see... set up a "photobooth". Go to my flickr if you feel like reading the sarcasm behind it haha (all in fun of course).

Anywho! So I had some of the biggest surprises this birthday, and one of them happens to be the biggest surprise I've ever gotten. The girl above may look familiar... yeah because she's Anastasiia, the beautiful gal I happened to meet in New York at the beginning of September with Marc and Zack. So she secretly contacted Danielle and Jessica, then my Mom, so everyone knew, my family, friends, and even Marc knew she was coming. Yeah so basically on Saturday I flipped with stokedcitement! It was an amazing birthday and was glad I got to spend it here at home with my friends and family.
