It's a Kodak Moment




let me go and get my camera



With one week of freedom to do as I please in Santa Barbara while the weather is the most beautiful its been as long as I've been here, I've naturally decided to stay inside and update my livejournal.

This session at school was interesting, I took Speech and Lighting Theory and I think I got an A and a B, so I'm happy. I really don't know what else to write anymore, a lot of my friends from College just went back home, some for good and others just for break and I feel equally upset about all of their departures.

I'm just going to jump into pictures, because I think the stories behind them take care of themselves while I'm captioning.

First: Didi Gochez and Maya are creative little kids. They made this music video to Vampire Weekend for Video Productions, and it's fly. You should definitely watch it, or at least let the music play while you're peeping the rest of these pictures.



In keeping in the theme of Didi, I took some picures of her while I was home in March.



















Didi also got a Digital Rebel Xti which is proof that we should be biological siblings.

One of this session's assignments was CD Cover.
I shot Jackie and had to reshoot, but I really liked how these came out anyway.









Fierce Tranny from Transylvania who is Not Apologizing For It!?!?!



P.S. I saw Baby Mama, and Amy Poehler should really be more famous than she is.



This is my friend Nate, who left a few days ago to drive back home to Connecticut, where he's going to live from now on.
It's really sad.









These are the homies with whom I kick it on a daily basis.



I took these of Eric for 103 in February? Time flies.





Has anyone read The Time-Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger? I need someone to confer with about the movie and how amazing or terrible it's going to be!

Walter and Nate bought a Slip and Slide when the weather was starting to improve...it's broken now. :)



Oh and I shaved Nate's head stoned one night, and Patty took pictures!









Fin.



But only Fin with his hair, not with this post!

Alec discovered a magical land, around the corner from our house. It's enormous and simultaneously looks like San Francisco, Africa, and Ireland.

Natalie Ferne's BF Derrick was here and we took him to Africa.
I realize this doesn't look like Africa, but we've come to referring to the entire park as being "Africa".







This one is dark, but only because they love Metal together.









:D



Jackie and I went to L.A. for Easter and stayed with her sister.

And her niece Olivia!



The Newlyweds, Tiff and Jill.



We saw Skeet Ulrich at this park and so we camwhored.





One eye closed means no one's home.



This is Jackie's awesome new room mate Kelly, who speaks Swedish and is so chill.
This is in Africa, too, and everyone in Africa can speak Swedish!









Jackie, Kelly, and her friend Tawnee.



Africaaaaa! Lady Smith Black Mambazo!



I spent too much money on Kanye glasses.









This is Mimi Chug-A-Forty. I adore her.







My editorial portrait of Natalie as an artist.









Homegrown Nate, y'all.



Alec using her 4x5 for the last assignment ever with the 4x5!



Drew her a delicious cupcake tattoo!



One day in Africa, I asked Alec to take some pictures of me jumping.















Finally, here are some shots from an Editorial Layout assignment we had to do.















Looking like Aphrodite.







As inspiring as Euterpe and Thalia too!
Especially since she attempted to turn me onto Miley Cyrus' music?



























And that's all of my pictures from recently, I suppose!
Thanks for looking you guys, really sorry I don't post as often.

Now I have 7 days of sunshine and brain-dead tom-foolery to occupy myself with.

I MISS LA BROWN EYES. I miss my friends, I miss my house, I miss the intense heat of Oakley.
Summer's about to pop off though. :D

idk about him being henry either, for some reason this last reading I was imagining Jim Sturgess. Bana will probably work...I hope. It's such an epic story I can't wait to see what they do with it!

LOVES IT DOM!!! Seriously everything looks incredible. It's cool that at Brooks you guys have intense assignments, here at SVA it's alot different. Do you have a straight up digital only class or do you do any 35mm? Most 95% of what I've done this year was B&W printing, I barely did any digital.

God i miss pre-eating disorder Nicole Richie, she was a hilarious douchebag! I'm glad you like my work bb! Okay so, brooks just recently converted completely to digital, so I don't really get to do any B&W work at all, but we have these amazing labs that are shut down because no one uses them and its such a waste. Kids who are older than us started with film but now it's mostly all digital, and then there are some film classes in upper division. ALso they start you out doing lots of 4x5 work for the first three sessions, just so you know how to use it in field I think, so that's film but you just get it processed at Samy's or Calumet and then turn in the negative.

& dah at you being at SVA, it's always so impressive when I remember.

The lighting in Nate's shots was just a gold reflector I think and maybe a P-22 Diffusion Panel. Africa Jumping! The Nature is so random but it's so great.
Mimi is beautiful, I love her. Aw fierce tranny hot mess. Aw I forgot you just shot those bed pictures, they were really good shut up! Thanks though, I appreciate it! I didn't mean to copy you I swear! :D

Where do you go to school? Come to San Diego please right now and hang out with me. I haven't combed my hair in like a week, so I'm totally voluminous. I like to be unphotogenic, and I'm living at a lighthouse! PLEASE HANG OUT WITH ME! Also, since you hang out with lots of big boobed people, we'd get along.

Where's Skeet???
(Anonymous)
2008-04-29 01:54 pm UTC (link)
You totally sucked me in and I can't find Skeet?

I read the TTTW and loved it, and I don't think the movie can live up to the book. Eric Bana is NOT Henry. Ironically, I always pictured Skeet in the role. He can play younger and older and has a great brooding-bad boy image. Eric B is too buff for the role, Skeet has a slim body and the look. Rachel will be fine as Claire.

Once again, WHERE's SKEET? ;)

I don't know if people will even grasp the concept of him being a Time-Traveler right off the bat? It's pretty intricate, like how he and Clare met and why it's significant and the gene . . . how are they going to put that into a trailer?!
