Scary Moment

August 31, 2007

It’s a weird enough feeling when you get caught up in a spider web. Imagine this thing crawling on your shoulder. Mowing the lawn this morning I got really freaked out when I felt something crawling on me, looked down and saw this thing climbing my shoulder. The picture alone makes me kinda shake. It was about the size of silver dollar.

The Pink Bunny

August 27, 2007

I noticed this in Mexico and in England. What is Duracell doing with a pink bunny?!? They have pink furry bunny for their new logo/mascot. I thought that was Energizer’s thing! Copyright? Why not use a green teddy bear or something else? I have to say that’s a lack of orignality on Duracell’s part. Shame on you Duracell.

I tried to make the energizer bunny look angry.

Jana’s Bridal

August 24, 2007

Jana was very relaxed through the shoot. The shoot didn’t go according to plan but we ended up at the Hotel Galvez who were very helpful and very nice. Which I truly appreciate.

We started the day at the Japanese Garden and then headed downtown. While we were at the Japanese Garden it started to poor a couple times. Fortunately both times we were set up under a covered area. I love exploring downtown and finding new little places to take unique shots. Josh and Bethany were extremely easy to work with making the shoot all the more fun for the both of us.

Off to Rome, Italy

August 22, 2007

Rome was my favorite city of the whole vacation. Looking out the window of the train as we arrived into the city kinda worried me a little. I’ve never seen so much graffiti, some of it looked nice, but it certainly looked like we were headed into the hardcore ghetto. I wasn’t sure what to expect. Once we finally got to the heart of the city, it was quite beautiful, everything around you seemed unreal.

this is one of those guys staging to be a statue, hoping that you make a donation. By far the best one we saw.

We were just walking in the street and I looked to the left as saw this randomly. I think it was the entrance to an apartment comlpex.

the Vatican
italy-11.jpg
The Sistine Chapel. This was a funny experience. As you walk in there is security guy standing in the corner contantly screaming “Sir, No Picture!”, which was barely understandable, it sounded like he was saying “copy shirt”. The room was extremely packed wall to wall. And the majority of the people in the room had their arm extended high with their camera pointed up, a flash going off every few seconds. The security guy was quite annoyed. I tried to be as subtle as possible, which was kinda hard with the massive camera.

This was some vaction. Me and Jess were went to visit her parents who live in Farnham, England, about and hour South of London. The day after we arrived, The Porters took us on a road trip to Scotland. We stopped at a couple of nice bed & breakfasts along the way.
