Glossy



I'm currently working on a project for my class, we're making catalogs out of ten items. I'm calling the catalog FLOSSAHOLICS and the first issue features 10 Essentials for Women. One of my essentials was lip gloss and I made gif of the three images that are being printed right now as I type this.


I'm also planning on posting up each spread that I made with the photo and words that some very lovely ladies contributed to my piece. Some people were a lil late on their words so they missed the press but I'm still going to show ya what they wrote.


With that said enjoy this gif of my model for the first issue Samahra Daly of Black Blondie.

Challenge of the Week Goes To....(drum roll please)

This weeks challenge goes out to the person who made this statement over at the Post Secret blog. My challenge to you is a duo in the darkroom, you call yourself a professional photographer but don't know the basics. Just because you have a fancy digital camera with 10 mega pixels doesn't make you a pro yo.

Photobucket

Can I get some back-up from fellow photographers?

Weezie's Meatloaf Thursdays


One of my highlights from this crazy weekend has to be from Sunday brunch. My home girl, I've Seen You On The Bus Before, and I went to the Cedar Inn to try out their breakfast and their Mimosas. While sitting outside waiting for our food we admired the signs they had up.


Apperently Lil Wayne kicks it in the kitchen over there on Thursday and the meat loaf he makes is to die for. While getting an ear full about how good it was I was also told that I need to get their earrrrrly if I want some.


"What Time?" I asked.


"About 2 o'clock." The bar back responded.


"2?! I have to work until 4:30 will there still be some left?"


"Well, you can call a head and we can wrap some up in saran(s/p) wrap and you can pick it up." He told me.


HOT DAYMN! This meatloaf must be off the chain if it goes that fast. Personally, I've never tried meatloaf that I can remember. I was just disgusted at the process of making it.
