it's like i have so much to say...
but I just can't get it out of my mouth. a lot has gone on over the past month or so. and i wish i could just ...well I guess I can post from my phone now that I think about it. But anyhow. things are ok for the most part, just trying to get through the day. I owe some money to the County Superior Court for a traffic violation that was my fault, I was driving around for a while with expired tags. You do things like that when you're broke. And when you're broke, you forget a lot of shit too, like forgetting to go and take care of that once you DO have money.
Have had some nice photoshoots lately, a lot of people wanting to shoot honestly want to do so because a) i'm shooting for portfolio at the moment, so that shit is free for the most part, and b) they're wanting to have their picture taken and having their makeup done by D since she's moving to LA in the middle of next month to become the big bad makeup artist to the stars we pray she'll become. So let me know if you wanna shoot inbetween then.
We're supposed to have a photoshoot at Pismo Beach this weekend as part of a swimsuit spectacular that I've been trying to put together for a couple months. Forgot to take care of one little thing, and that's the lodging. The two muses who are starring in it, Amanda and Erin, may not make it, so I'm really just considering calling the thing off and maybe sneaking into a beach along the Kings River or something picturesque instead of the ocean. I guess we'll see what happens in the next couple of days.
Speaking of Erin, I met Erin at Paul Mitchell. She came up to me asking if I needed models for the shoot in Pismo, and I was like..uhh...SURE. heheh. Because nobody truly seeks me out for the most part here locally, so it tickled me pink. And she was so...the word I use is mousey. she had her hair pulled back, was wearing black clothes, had glasses. But when she got in front of the lens. Holy sweet little baby infant Jesus with the gold diapers and the halo, did she kaboom! like it was shake and bake. I think I'll keep her, I absolutely love her look.
Anyhow, here's some pics from the past couple weeks. Ashley, Erin, Seliz and Vanity. Below is Seliz. Hope everyone is well!
If you're on MySpace, you've seen a few of these. If you haven't added me, do so! http://www.myspace.com/csoriano
I recently bought an octabox, an octagonal-shaped softbox that's actually 4 FEET across. it's ginormous, but holy shit I love the light it puts out. LOVE IT. I'm getting faster at putting it up and bringing it down. I also ordered a rectangular softbox. It should be here Friday hopefully.
Erin (D on the makeup, Erin on the hair)
Ashley (Ash and Megs on the Makeup, Jessica Soltero on the hair)
underwater?
Ashley's husband Kenny (I need to shoot more guys pls)
Ash being a vixen. What's funny about this shoot is that we had it at a girls empty house, at least 5 ppl on myspace wanted to do pics and what not since there were 2 photographers. They all flaked. They suck.
Seliz (Like Celise/Celyse/however else you'd see it, cool name, Erin on the hair, D on the makeup)
see, the theme here was a doll, based off Ashlee's contemporary routine off "So You Think You Can Dance". Kinda evolved into something totally different. But I dig it.
Vanity (that's a black wig, she's blonde as the sun, makeup by D.)
and last but not least, Erin doing a remix of an old shot by D, except D was wearing a nude bra and black hose. Still awesome though.
Have a great Thursday!
