Addictions

Fortunately for me, Starbucks is NOT one of my addictions, but if it were I imagine my perspective to be the following:

Day 5 of 365

I feel like there is nothing new to share today so I'm going to leave you with this funny quote:
"Warning: condoms aren't 100% protective. My friend was wearing one and they fell down the stairs."

As for the rest of my day, it was spent studying and taking nice pics of clouds!

Outside Ryerson

Clouds!

More clouds!

Day 3 of 365

Hey everyone, day 3 now!  So I dropped by Paul Buceta's studio real quick to transfer some footage from Friday's shoot to his computer, and we ended up getting a litttttle carried away.

George from Kreater bikes came in to see Paul and they started talking fitness and about fighting.  Paul had some secret fighting techniques... man I wish I filmed the "crazy face", but I did manage to get footage of his other technique.  See link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UGcs7-omgw

Actually, come to think of it, crazy face sort of looks like the picture below!

Paul as a Mexican Wrestler.

Kids, don't fight in studios!

Day 2 of 365

Day 2, 

I went to the iModel Expo Saturday and I just got around to uploading the pictures on to my computer.  I've been too busy trying to figure out a way to back up the footage from the Playboy video shoot and it's just too stressful to use an HDV camera as opposed to the new digital formats such as flash cards...

The other thing I have been trying to figure out are my funds for a new Macbook Pro + buying some studio couches + tethering my camera to my laptop (which is currently too slow, hence the desire for a Macbook Pro).

Here are some pictures from the iModel Expo.  Each tells a fun story:

Marissa Elyse being interviewed.  She's been to Playboy parties, she's cool!

Ashley Gabriel stealing posters from booths.

Jennifer Nguyen, aka JENNY pretending to eat something sour.  I know she hates "Jenny".

Random girl taking off her clothes.  Ok, if you know me you should know who this is without question.

Michelle Reina, a total cutie!  I want to shoot her for some online magazines now.

These guys have never seen a girl in their lives before!

Dia signing a shirt, yepp. Signing a shirt :)

Kimberly and Dia, two other total cuties, but most importantly sweethearts!  Super nice girls.

They can't resist each other.

Day 1 of 365

Yesterday I shot video on spec for Playboy Special Editions with champ photographer Paul Buceta.  Super nice guy, well-spirited, and talented.

The call time was 9am, and I got out of the studio by 11pm.  14 hours later I came home, crashed, and woke up at noon; it's not something I'm used to.  Either way, I liked the idea behind the new experience and the idea of potentially adding Playboy to my clientèle list.

Yesterday's experience (shooting for Playboy, a big brand) inspired me to be transparent and to start sharing my photographic journey with the world, online.  Everyday I will be posting video or images along with a story about how I'm doing on the journey.  Through his, I hope to further inspire everyone to work towards what they want to do as well.  The idea behind a 365 day thing was inspired by Sanjay Bhatti.

The day prior to that was September 30th, when I shot Playboy model Ashley Marie along with local Toronto-based musician Chris Ramos.  You can find the issue Lingerie Edition Ashley appears in on shelves for October/November, while you can hear Chris' song just by listening to Z1035; it's airing daily.  Here are some fun behind the scenes pictures from the shoot:

and that was my day!
