She has the cutest wardrobe. =)
Happy Thanksgiving, mofos. I have to hit the market so I can buy some potatoes, butter, and cream. Mmmm mmm, bitch!

mmm mmm, bitch

Well, I updated my nurse costume just for the fuck of it. I will post pics of my real halloween costume for '07, when I wear it. For now here's a pic from a mini shoot that I did of myself a few minutes ago with my new nurse outfit. I was actually just testing my new wireless remote for my d200 since i just got home from a...costume party of sorts. =) basically, the remote for the d200 sucks ass compared to the d70s remote. i think i just have to get used to it. well, here's me sobering up. =)

more of my photography

I haven't finished posting lots of my pics from my vacation, but it's hard to do such things while I'm not on vacation. I just wanted to take some to to post some of my new photography work.

First, here's my girl, Ambreal. I shot these just before I left to Hawaii.




<had someone snap a shot of us after the shoot. if you aren't familiar with gangsta finger lingo, i'm throwing up 'boob' 4 Life! She's throwing up the Japanese gang sign which stands for "look at those boobs." If you don't know, you better axe somebody.

Next, the super cute and sexy, Laura. She was down to pose with my sister's boa and tarantula during her shoot...

New self portrait

Here's a photo that I've been wanting to take of myself for quite some time.



It has some pretty personally significant elements in it.

The first and obvious would be the original NES with the original R.O.B. I grew up playing video games. I wouldn't say that we were wealthy or even well off but we wanted a NES so bad, that we were able to attain one when it first came out. I was on that thing almost all day everyday until we got the SNES. Yes, I'm a dork. I'm a "gamer chick."

Another important part of this picture are my shoes. These are the very first pair of name brand shoes that I ever owned. My Adidas! I must have dreamed about these shoes a hundred times before I convinced my dad to get them for me when I was in the 6th grade. Before I got these, I always wore Payless and Kmart shoes, but there was no way that I was going to by the 4 striped adidas in Jr. high. haha. I remember going to the Footlocker to try these babies on. I was stoked. I still have them and I still fit them! haha. I don't actually wear them out these days, but I don't think I could ever throw them out.

I don't know where my rambling is headed. Perhaps what I really want to point out is that most of the things that I will never consider getting rid of have saturated a lot of the color yellow over the years. haha. Well, I guess I could say that it all winds down to this...Everything that I have ever truly wanted, I was able to eventually attain. To me this photo evokes a strong feeling of accomplishment. I feel good. haha. I just realized that I've been sober since June 9th and today's August 9th. =) Man, I'm suffocating on achievement. Um...time for me to get some sleep. I'll probably delete most of this nonsense when I wake up. haha.

New shots of Mariechris

Here are some of the pics taken the other day. The model, Mariechris is such a sweet person with that natural filipina beauty. She was a pleasure to shoot with. Next time we'll definitely do some b-girl stuff. =)

new photos of casimir

I had a shoot the other day with my lovely girl, Casimir. She's extremely awesome in front of the camera. We had a lot of really great shots. Here are just a few.









I know she'll do really great with her modeling career. She's smokin'! =)

New self portraits

so I sporadically decided to get some shots of myself in my temporary studio yesterday. the house is basically empty aside from the backgrounds that I set up, so I had a hard time coming up with ideas on the spot. I only had a few outfits, some makeup, and some books that I use to give models ideas for their makeup. here's what was composed...



<i found this old belt buckle. it's pretty old. It was my dad's. I was named after him. Ya dig? Just keep in mind that I aint Mike Jones, so keep my name outcho mouth. haha.




< I waited around for the sunset to get this shot. 8pm-ish. I have to remember that for other models. I think it's a cute setting. Better than full sunlight since the windows are so damned dirty from the outside.




< how could I resist using the pink background in one of my pics. I didn't really have props so I initially posed like I was just reading one of the books, but the books were too huge. They covered half my body and looked too awkward. So I just laid the books down and scattered some of my makeup around. Much better.

<close up of the details. I was just trying to lean my head back as far as I could to get that dramatic light burn on my face. Painful, but worth it.

< quick shot of my shadow. between shoots. hehe.

here are some new shots.


<Jenny and Huying

<Melissa

< Melissa again

I am pretty stoked about being able to use the spot. There is enough room to make my own backgrounds. (so far I have a super girly pink room, a black room, and a red room) There are 2 fireplaces, nice huge windows, and a little deck area. There are so many ideas running through my mind with this place. I'm about to head back right now. =) The place is too cool.
