Home alone....

Doesn't happen very often, because Jeannie and I like to do everything together, but this weekend she took off with her boss and went to D.C. leaving me home alone....
SO now I sit here bored out of my mind watching the Discovery channel and nodding off. What to do what to do? I could head down to the bar and hang out with some friends who are playing tonight and take some pics, or I can stay home and be bored...not sure which will win out. I used to love hitting up the bars on the weekend, but anymore I would rather sit at home. Is that a sign of getting old? lol...


Have to be up early tomorrow to head to Dayton Ohio to do a truck shoot. Recently there has been some editorial changes at Mini Truckin magazine and I sent in some images and asked if I could do a shoot for their magazine and was given the go ahead. Hopefully they will like what I get tomorrow and it can be a regular gig for me next year. But in the mean time, what should I do tonight? hmmmm......

I have been watching some videos.....

A lot of videos actually, lol. And the one thing they all hit on is defining who you are as a photographer. To look at your images and see if you can tell what makes your images special. So I did just that. I took some time to look at my images and see what my style is and see if I could point to the things that make my images unique. Here is what I came up with. 1. I like to keep my images simple. I don't like cluttered backgrounds. 2. I dislike blown out skies so I use flash a lot out doors. 3. I dislike using textures and selective coloring. I want my images to stand out on their own with out a lot of effects. 4. I love black and whites & vignettes. 5. I shoot a lot in portrait orientation, probably 90% of the time. 6. I dislike shooting with a tilt. 7. I like my images to be contrasty. 8. I like longer focal lengths, I use my 85mm 1.8 a lot for portraits and here recently I have been using my 70-210mm f4 a lot. 9. I love shooting portraits wide open, especiall...
