I should be better at updating.

I’m going to start working hard at being a portrait photographer instead of just a useless dilettante. I’m going to get more work in my portfolio and start whoring myself out (as a photographer!) on craigslist and all of the other sites, and then I’m going to upgrade to a Macbook and a 5D and L-series lenses. Yeah. That’s my plan.

At least this plan feels at least moderately achievable. I’ve had so many other grand plans in the past that I feel a little dumb announcing this one publicly. I have a history of failure. Epic failure. Failure of grand proportion. But, I really think I can do it this time. God knows, I can’t just sit here thinking about it all the time.

This past weekend I went to a nerdfest in Anaheim and was lucky enough to get to take some photos of my pal Steph. Would you like to see them? Here they are. Not particularly inspired and my background is completely blown out, but for my first non-Greyson portraits I’m pretty pleased with the turnout. As I get more familiar with my camera and particularly my flash, I should see some real improvement and I’m very excited about that. Anyway.

I’ll try to keep a bit more updated.
