LD + EB World Cup Camp Send Off

Had the opportunity to hit the field to take some pictures on Saturday night.

The send-off match against Toronto FC ended in a stale mate, 0-0

THE UPS AND DOWNS OF SEATTLE

View from the telly - My first time in Seattle will be one that I definitely will not forget. My all time favourite soccer team, the LA Galaxy made it to its sixth MLS Cup match. And they lost it, barely. That was the only downside of visiting this cold and rainy city.

Halloween 2009

Wearing a snuggie was my Halloween costume. Aaron was Vanilla Ice, and Melinda was Flo from the Progressive commercials.

Snuggie dude, Vanilla Ice and Flo taking shots!

Because A Little DIY Never Hurt Nobody!

A couple of weeks ago, my roomate of 4 months told me that he wasn’t going to be able to make rent anymore, and that he’ll have to move back home.  I can’t afford the place on my own, and with all my equiptment, I can’t get just any roomate. Unfortunately, I’ll have to be moving back as well. It wont be for long, just enough to save a lil money to find a nice, better place, on my own this time!

Sanded down wall after being patched

Since I gave up my room to my lil brother when I had originally moved out, I have to move back in to the the tiny 8”x 11″ room I lived in when I was a young whippersnapper. This small-ass room is ugly, green paint with yellow trim, staple and nail holes everywhere,  dent marks and peeled paint on the walls is what I have to fix. I have no experience with home improvement, and this is going to be quite a challange. I got a lil help from my dad, he patched up the holes, and I (hand)sanded them down. That took a while. Next up is primer the walls, then coat them with the two paints I got, White on three walls, and ceiling and one accent wall that will be Red.

Bounce Flash?

Bounce flash is a technique used to even up the foreground and background lighting when taking a photograph. It’s also used to create cool shadows and stuff like that.

I’ve got a quinceñera to shoot on Saturday and I guess I can count bounce flash out of the question. Look at the size of this church!
