While looking on Pinterest and Instagram for inspirational ideas for one more project shoot for 2021. I came across an outdoor winter shoot. So I start looking online for wardrobe ideas and came across this cute white dress with a hood.

As of lately I been really into shoot with a heavy contrast of color. Now with the next holiday coming up being Valentines day, My project is going to basic off that. So I stop into ProCam camera store and pick up three beautiful backdrop colors.

I guess you can say I’m one of the lasts of a dying group when it come to film photography. Do to the fact that film has become very expensive to buy and get develop. So I shoot with my digital and shoot about one roll of film on special shoots that I think will look amazing on film.

Thursday Dec 30, 2021. I decided to do a New Year. To bring in the new year with images and to get one more shoot in, in 2021. So happy New year and hope to have another amazing year

So it’s about 2 am in the morning and I am just completing these edits from the Halloween and Elvira shoot. But the funny thing is that this was not a lasts minute project. But a project I plan over a month in advance and did the shoot on Oct 17th. So why I am up at night or morning on the day of Halloween editing.

Well as you can tell, I have been really working hard on my channel. But I didn’t just start. I been working on the channel for over two years now. Doing a little vblogging and recording my photoshoot. Like a behind-the-scenes look. You can say I was getting material for my channel to show my work.

It was another amazing conference this year. I do have to say, with have an extra year to pull ClickCon together. Made it A lot more polished. Even though I was only able to go the two of the three days that I signed up for and had an amazing time. Definitely signup for ClickCon 2022. But I think that it can be better. So here’s my little Pro and Con of ClickCon 2021. ( Note: this is just my opinions and nothing anyone at ClickCon )

In the mid-90s, I used to watch a show on HBO called Red Shoe Diaries. Red Shoe Diaries was a romantic show with suspense and mystery. The show was base on a man and his dog reading letters from women writing to him about their romantic love affairs stories.

So next door to my studio is a good friend Rex and a fabricator for the 501st legion, etc. he was also the person who made the background for my futuristic Cyberpunk theme shoot at the beginning of the year for me.

I first got inspired one day by browsing YouTube for some content to watch on photography, for editing inspiration. While doing this I ran across Lindsay Adler video on Old Hollywood Inspired shoot.  After watching the video. I was super excited about doing my own Old Hollywood theme shoot

As of now. I have not done a advertisement for large company and or business. But if I had, it would be something sexy, classy and classic. 

So I have recently seen a post on Facebook, memories of a shot I did about 8 years ago. Wow, 8 years that shot was posted on Facebook. It was an amazing shoot and one of my most favorite shots. So I had to go through my 2013 archives and find that project to re-edited it. Just to see if I can do a better job editing the image now than I did in 2013. I definitely lack the skills I have now. Plus the software I think is 10x better.

First off, I'm not a fan of people re-editing my images. Because all complete edits I feel are my style and how the image should look.

But I do have some exceptions for someone to edit or re-edit my work. One is sending it to a retoucher and, the other is if it's a client and they pay for the images.

Over the month March I been working on my next project and wanted to keep going to the level with my photography. Ok, so after the futuristic cyberpunk shoot, I wanted to have the next project on the same level.

Over the last two years, I have been shooting with Canon, Nikon, and Sony. Sound crazy right. Well, it is. My photography career started with Canon, then move to Nikon, and now on to Sony.

BTS Day Two of the Futuristic Cyberpunk.

Futuristic Cyberpunk BTS day one.

Been working on a new issue for the magazine and want to get it out in the middle of December. So with that being said, I need new content to put in the magazine. Also get back to working in my studio. So far I’m one model short of pulling this out, but waiting a reply back to get this four shoots in one day going. Well, let see if it happen.

I always love to shoot film, therefore after I complete a roll of film, I’ll take it down to Foto houze in Downers Grove to get it developed by my good friend Kevin the owner. Once I get the film back, I’ll cut and scan it on my Canon CanoScan 9000F.
