should be
i should be feeling like a champ tonight after playing raquet ball and swimming in my bi weekly ritual with my fellow immate. i am trying to be productive but today felt like a lost cause. the feeling actually goes back a number of weeks because i don’t know how to judge progress anymore these days. the mountain of things to do seem so big that the bits and pieces i do daily doesn’t do much. anyway, i need a break from my work/play routine in genearl and i am looking foward to my retreat at the […]
fame
_roll the cameras i am going to let orangex explain why we had camera folks in our office today following in around like he was some rock star. it wa a bit surreal explain to have the camera turn on us for one and it was such funny contrive conversations we had about work while the crew was here. even as orangex is rolling in the personal pr machine, our little company got nominated for the ‘oscars’ of web awards. as usual, my work life has overtaken so much of my personal life that i have yet […]
a taste of meaning
i got the opportunity donate my photographic eye a domestic violence shelter in oakland the other day. i thought it was going to be really tough to stomache the situation because it’s actually ‘real life’ versus the all the fun shit i shoot all the time. as it turns out it was ‘fun’ because they use wanted me to take some pictures of the kids so that they can use the photography to get more funding. which is precisely the point of our ‘social photograph program’, we want to give orangizations that can’t usually offer kids like […]
misperceptions
so apparently, there are a number of people out that think we’re a punch of wealthy dot com kids after 2 years of being in the business. they see because we’ve grown to 5 full time people and that we’re usually pretty busy shooting events/weddings that we must be making bank! case in point, i was talking to this VC client and he’s asking me, ‘aren’t you rich yet?’. implying why am i still working and shooting these types of events. well, i am not going to go through all the reasons why we’re strapped for cash […]
on the frontline
i’ve been extra decadent in the past several days. anything there’s free drinks and food, i am in the frontline laying it down for the business. i invited a friend along last night to yet another fundraiser for the world wildlife fund and he caught a glimpse of the indugling lifestyles that we can live. certainly, it gets very tiresome after you shoot the same people over and over again at the same types of functions but if you’re in the mood, it’s a great way to pass the night. anyway, they had the cowboy junkies, noelle […]
i think i understand now
i understand why most senstive man to ever work for the biggest porn shop in paris can have the audicity to fly to 5 different cities in europe and america to just see a band. just a band is like saying sex is only a three letter word. the vulerbility of this man child woman singer is quite devastating to the emotional man. in his voice you can hear the strength of man, the tenderest of woman, and the hope of a child. i daresay is the man equilvent of liz fraser of the all time holiest […]
uninspired
feeling a serious lack of creative juices of late. maybe it started after the whole sf faces show but getting back into the business of photography has diluted my passion of meaningful photography. most of the photography i do these days have very little connection to my personal values. from models to happy people getting married, i can’t really connect with it on a level to feel inspire about capturing it. i am beginning to feel that my deferrment of photography as a personal exploration will suffer as i get more caught in the business aspect of […]
