That's it.

A lot in life has been going on for me. It's forced me to re evaluate things I am doing in my life, one of them being photography. How much time am I spending doing photography and a more important question, why? After giving it a lot thought I've come to the following decision. I am hanging it up. Yep, that's it...
What I mean by this is I am no longer going to work as a photographer. I will always be a photographer but I am done with the business end of it. I have a few more obligations I need to finish and that's it. I know this will piss some people off but it's what I have to do for me.
I feel good about this. It's the right thing for me. I love photography and for me whenever I have to do something I love for a living it kinda kills it. It's the business end of it. I won't let business and money kill my passion for photography.
I'll still have my pet projects and work with models and other creative people but it will be because I want to not for the money or career obligations.
There will be more to come about this... It's still a work in progress.
Life's too short.

One extreme to another

From New York City to Mt. Whitney...

I think this is the 1st weekend that I've actually sat around in a long time. I've had time to look at some of my photos and catch up on some other things. It's been nice.

Anyways, this is a photo from Mt. Whitney. I had a chance to hike up there last weekend this is at the 97 switchbacks and the sun is starting to rise. I was using a a Canon S90 and it's amazing how clear the images are from such a small camera. It also saved from me having to lug another 15 lbs. of gear, even better.

Recovery...

Back in San Diego for a few days now. Still recovering from an amazing trip! I can't even put it into words. I will be trying to put it into images, still working on that.
From a equipment stand point. I am glad I didn't take a bunch of lights. It would have been a real pain because I didn't have a PA or permits. I don't know if I would have gotten what I was looking for... Less was better for this trip. New York already has so much going on, so many different light sources I think trying to make myself work with what I had was a munch better option and in someways a challenge.
This is a clip from shooting in Time Square @ around 1:00 am. The City really doesn't sleep.

And that's how you do it...

The show was great! All the designers were great! It was nice seeing San Diego so well represented by designers, models and photographers, me.
I am done... I've had a great time in New York personally and professionally. Tons of photos to edit down, about 60 gigs and that's not even the video. :-/
Anyways, going to eat. I am starving!
We'll see what tomorrow has in store...

Tuesday?

It's 10 am in Columbus Circle on Tuesday morning, already? I am having my cup of coffee and watching the greatest show on earth, us...
We shot in Time Square as planned last night. It turn out well. I think? Again, I don't have my laptop to download and process the images. There is also some more video clips. Which looked good but I need a wifi connection to upload them and people are tight with their wifi in New York. Stat Bucks wifi is a joke. There are 900 people in every store all milling around.

Today is the runway show. Gotta clean my kit are make sure everything is charged a ready to go for tonight. Other then that well see were the day takes me.
